  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • Men and women aged 18 or older.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Number of Participants With Treatment-emergent Adverse Events as Assessed by CTCAE v5.0

    Frequency, duration, and severity of treatment-emergent adverse events (AEs)

    Measured: From enrollment through up to 90 days after end of treatment, an average of 1 year

Secondary outcomes (8)
  1. Objective Response Rate (ORR) as Assessed by Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) v1.1

    To assess antitumor activity/efficacy by evaluating objective response rate (ORR), defined as the percentage of participants who experienced a complete response (CR; disappearance of all target lesions) or a partial response (PR; at least a 30% decrease in the sum of diameters of target lesions) based on Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) v1.1

    Measured: Approximately 1 year

  2. Duration of Response (DoR) as Assessed by Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) v1.1

    To assess antitumor activity/efficacy by evaluating duration of response (DoR), defined as the time from the first documented complete response or partial response per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) v1.1 to the first documented progressive disease or death due to any cause, whichever occurs first. Per Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors Criteria (RECIST v1.1) for target lesions and assessed by CT or MRI: Complete Response (CR), Disappearance of all target lesions; Partial Response (PR), >=30% decrease in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions.

    Measured: Approximately 1 year

  3. Disease Control Rate (DCR) as Assessed by Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) v1.1

    To assess antitumor activity/efficacy by evaluating disease control rate (DCR), defined as the proportion of participants in whom a documented complete response, partial response, or stable disease is observed as the best overall response per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) v1.1.

    Measured: Approximately 1 year

  4. Progression-free Survival (PFS) Per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) v1.1

    To evaluate progression-free survival (PFS), defined as the time from the first dose of NC762 to the first occurrence of documented progressive disease or death due to any cause, whichever occurs first. Progression is defined using Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors Criteria (RECIST v1.1), as a 20% increase in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions, or a measurable increase in a non-target lesion, or the appearance of new lesions.

    Measured: Approximately 1 year

  5. Overall Survival (OS)

    To evaluate overall survival (OS), defined as the time from the first dose of NC762 to death due to any cause.

    Measured: Approximately 1 year

  6. Maximum Serum Concentration (Cmax) of NC762

    To evaluate the Maximum Serum Concentration (Cmax) of NC762

    Measured: Days 1, 2, 3, and 8 of Cycles 1 and 5. Each cycle is 14 days.

  7. Area Under the Curve (AUC) of NC762

    To evaluate the Area Under the Curve (AUC) of NC762

    Measured: Days 1, 2, 3, and 8 of Cycles 1 and 5. Each cycle is 14 days.

  8. Half-life (T1/2) of NC762

    To evaluate the Half-life (T1/2) of NC762

    Measured: Days 1, 2, 3, and 8 of Cycles 1 and 5. Each cycle is 14 days.

Why it stopped: Due to the limited activity in Phase 1, NextCure decided to discontinue development of the anti-B7-H4 antibody monotherapy trial (NC762-01) to move forward with a prioritized B7-H4 ADC program.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing NC762 in people with Advanced or Metastatic Solid Tumors and Ovarian Cancer, run by NextCure, Inc. at 8 sites in United States.

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 8 inclusion and 31 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: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 22 Apr 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 8 sites in United States. 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?

Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 22 Apr 2025). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.

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?

Number of Participants With Treatment-emergent Adverse Events as Assessed by CTCAE v5.0 (time frame: From enrollment through up to 90 days after end of treatment, an average of 1 year). 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 22 Apr 2025.
