About this study

Official title: Phase 1b, Multicentre, Multiple Ascending Dose, Safety, Pharmacokinetic, and Pharmacodynamic Study of Tilvestamab (BGB149) in Relapsed, Platinum-resistant, High-grade Serous Ovarian Cancer (HGSOC) Patients

The primary purpose is to assess the safety and tolerability of tilvestamab following IV administration of multiple doses to participants with HGSOC who have been treated with at least 1 complete course of platinum-based chemotherapy and whose disease has relapsed with platinum resistance ([PRR]-HGSOC) and to determine the plasma pharmacokinetics (PK) exposure by comprehensive profiling (at single dose and steady-state) of multiple ascending doses of tilvestamab.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • TilvestamabBiological

    Also called BGB149

    Tilvestamab will be administered as IV infusion.

Study groups in NCT04893551
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
TilvestamabExperimentalParticipants will receive tilvestamab at a low starting dose level (Cohort A) given via intravenous (IV) infusion every 2 weeks. Dose escalations to subsequent cohorts (Cohort B and Cohort C) will be decided by the Protocol Steering Committee (PSC) after review of all Cycle 1 (28 days cycle) safety and pharmacokinetics (PK) data up to Cycle 1 Day 22 for all participants in the ongoing cohort.
Receives: Biological: Tilvestamab

What is being measured

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

  1. Number of Participants with Adverse events (AEs) and Serious AEs (SAEs)

    An AE is any symptom, physical sign, syndrome, or disease that either emerges during the study or, if present at Screening, worsens during the study, regardless of the suspected cause of the event. A SAE is an AE resulting in any of the following outcomes or deemed significant for any other reason: death; initial or prolonged inpatient hospitalization; life threatening experience (immediate risk of dying); persistent or significant disability/incapacity; congenital anomaly.

    Measured: Up to 2.5 years

  2. Number of Participants with Laboratory Abnormalities

    Number of participants with laboratory (haematology, coagulation, clinical chemistry, serum inflammatory cytokine profile, and urinalysis) abnormalities will be reported.

    Measured: Up to 2.5 years

  3. Number of Participants with Vital Sign Abnormalities

    Number of participants with vital sign (supine blood pressure [BP], heart rate, oral temperature, and respiratory rate) abnormalities will be reported.

    Measured: Up to 2.5 years

  4. Number of Participants with Electrocardiogram (ECG) Abnormalities

    Number of participants with resting triplicate 12-lead ECG abnormalities will be reported.

    Measured: Up to 2.5 years

  5. Number of Participants with Physical Examinations Abnormalities

    Number of participants with physical examinations abnormalities will be reported.

    Measured: Up to 2.5 years

  6. Number of Participants with Concomitant Medication Use

    Number of participants with concomitant medication use will be reported.

    Measured: Up to 2.5 years

  7. Maximum Concentration (Cmax)

    Cmax will be determined directly from the concentration-time profile.

    Measured: Up to 140 days

  8. Time to Cmax (Tmax)

    Time to Cmax will be determined directly from the concentration-time profile.

    Measured: Up to 140 days

  9. Area Under the Concentration-time Curve (AUC) From Predose (Time 0) to the end of the Dosing Period (AUC0-tau)

    AUC0-tau will be calculated using the linear-log trapezoidal rule.

    Measured: Up to 140 days

  10. AUC From Predose (Time 0) to the Time of the Last Quantifiable Concentration (AUClast)

    AUClast will be calculated using the linear-log trapezoidal rule.

    Measured: Up to 140 days

  11. AUC From Predose (Time 0) to 168 Hours Postdose (AUC0-168 )

    AUC0-168 is AUC from predose (time 0) to 168 hours postdose.

    Measured: Predose up to 168 hours postdose

  12. Terminal Elimination Rate Constant (Lambda[z])

    Lambda[z] will be determined by selection of at least 3 data points on the terminal phase of the concentration-time curve.

    Measured: Up to 140 days

  13. Terminal Elimination Half-life

    Terminal elimination half-life calculated as: ln2/Lambda[z]

    Measured: Up to 140 days

  14. Total body clearance (CL)

    CL is defined as total body clearance.

    Measured: Up to 140 days

Secondary outcomes (2)
  1. Number of Participants with Anti-drug Antibodies (ADAs)

    Number of participants with ADAs will be reported.

    Measured: Up to 2.5 years

  2. Number of Participants with Neutralizing Antibodies (NAbs)

    Number of participants with NAbs will be reported.

    Measured: Up to 2.5 years

Timeline

From the start of the study to its completion; the mark is today. Estimated dates are the sponsor’s plan.

  2. Study start25 Feb 2021
  3. Primary completion27 Jun 2022
  4. Study completion27 Jun 2022

Why it stopped: After completion of all planned dose levels in the dose escalation phase, the sponsor decision was not to continue with expanding the cohorts of any of the dose levels, using the existing study design.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing Tilvestamab in people with Ovarian Neoplasms, run by BerGenBio ASA at 9 sites in 4 countries.

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 5 inclusion and 5 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 20 Apr 2023. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 9 sites in United Kingdom, South Korea, Norway, Singapore. 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 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.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study was stopped early (reason given: After completion of all planned dose levels in the dose escalation phase, the sponsor decision was not to continue with expanding the cohorts of any of the dose levels, using the existing study design.). Results are not available in the source record.

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 Adverse events (AEs) and Serious AEs (SAEs) (time frame: Up to 2.5 years). The study lists 14 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT04893551, which also lists 1 linked publication.

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 20 Apr 2023.
