What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Optimal 89Zr-DFO-REGN3767 dose and PET imaging timepoint
Determine the optimal 89Zr-DFO-REGN3767 dose and optimal PET imaging timepoint.
Measured: 2 years
Pharmacokinetics (PK) of 89Zr-DFO-REGN3767
Description of PK of 89Zr-DFO-REGN3767 by measuring standardized uptake value (SUV) on PET scans performed 0, 2, 4 and/or 7 days after tracer injection.
Measured: 2 years
Incidence of adverse events related to 89Zr-DFO-REGN3767 administration as assessed by CTCAE v5.0
Safety assessment through summaries of adverse events, changes in laboratory test results (if evaluation is indicated) and changes in vital signs. Adverse event data will be recorded and summarized according to NCI CTCAE v5.0
Measured: 2 years
Secondary outcomes (4)
Heterogeneity of 89Zr-DFO-REGN3767 antibody tumor uptake
Heterogeneity of 89Zr-DFO-REGN3767 uptake will be evaluated by measuring standardized uptake value (SUV) in defined volumes of interest (VOIs) of tumor lesions on the PET scan images.
Measured: 2 years
Correlation of tumor tracer uptake with tumor and immune cell LAG3 expression
Results of immunohistochemical (IHC) scoring of immune cell LAG3 expression will be described as a semi-quantitative score using the percentage of positive cells (continuous variable), intensity and pattern of staining (discrete variable). These IHC results will be compared with imaging tracer standardized uptake value (SUV) in defined volumes of interest (VOIs) of tumor lesions on the PET scan images.
Measured: 2 years
Correlation of tumor tracer uptake with response to cemiplimab
Response to therapy with cemiplimab (with or without chemotherapy) will be assessed according to the RECIST or iRECIST guidelines. These results will be compared with imaging tracer standardized uptake value (SUV) in defined volumes of interest (VOIs) of tumor lesions on the PET scan images.
Measured: 2 years
Assessment of changes in tumor and normal organ uptake
Patients enrolled in part B will undergo a PET scan at baseline and another one after 2 treatment cycles. 89Zr-DFO-REGN3767 tracer uptake will be quantified and expressed as standardized uptake value (SUV) in defined volumes of interest (VOIs) for both scans. The results of both PET scans will be compared to assess changes in imaging tracer uptake over time.
Measured: 2 years

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 1/2 study testing 89Zr-DFO-REGN3767 and Cemiplimab in people with Metastatic Solid Tumor, run by University Medical Center Groningen at 1 site in Netherlands.
The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.
Who may be eligible to take part?
The sponsor lists 17 inclusion and 36 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.
Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?
The record says: under way, not looking for participants, as of the sponsor's last update on 31 May 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 1 site in Netherlands. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.
What are the possible benefits and risks?
They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.
What does this combined phase mean?
Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.
Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.
Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.
Are results available for this study?
This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.
How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?
The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.
What does the primary outcome measure?
Optimal 89Zr-DFO-REGN3767 dose and PET imaging timepoint (time frame: 2 years). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?
No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.
How often is this information updated?
AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 31 May 2025.
