About this study

Official title: A Phase 1/2 Dose Escalation Study of the Tolerability, Safety, Efficacy and Pharmacokinetics of ZG006 in Participants With Small Cell Lung Cancer or Neuroendocrine Carcinoma

This is a multi-center, open-label, Phase Ⅰ/Ⅱ clinical study of ZG006 for the treatment of participants with small cell lung cancer or neuroendocrine carcinoma who had no standard treatment available, or were intolerant to standard treatment.

Being tested
ZG006
Medical subject headings

What participants receive

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

  • ZG006Biological

    ZG006 will be administered as an intravenous (IV) infusion.

Study groups in NCT05978284
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Part 1: Dose EscalationExperimentalDuring the dose-escalation, an accelerated titration design (ATD) will be utilized for the first two dose groups (0.03mg and 0.1 mg), and the conventional "3+3" dose escalation method will be used for the subsequent dose groups. The entire duration of 28 days after the first dose of ZG006 is defined as the dose-limiting toxicity (DLT).
Receives: Biological: ZG006
Part 2: Dose ExpansionExperimentalParticipants will receive the RP2D/MTD identified in Part 1 (dose exploration) of the study.
Receives: Biological: ZG006

What is being measured

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

  1. The incidence of dose-limiting toxicity (DLT)

    An event is considered to be a DLT if the event occurs within the first 28 days of treatment and meets the dose-limiting toxicity criteria

    Measured: Up to 28 days

  2. Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) of ZG006

    Measured: Up to approximately 1 year

  3. Determine the Recommended Phase 2 Dose (RP2D)

    Measured: Up to approximately 1 year

  4. Number of participants with adverse events (AEs)

    The types and frequencies of adverse events (AEs) evaluated according to the National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for adverse events (NCI-CTCAE) version 5.0

    Measured: Up to approximately 2 year

  5. Number of participants with serious adverse events (SAEs)

    Measured: Up to approximately 2 year

  6. Incidence of abnormal laboratory results

    Abnormal laboratory results of safety concerns such as ALT, AST, Cr and BUN, et al according to NCI-CTCAE 5.0 classification.

    Measured: Up to approximately 2 year

  7. Changes of ECGs from baselines

    Changes of ECGs from baselines, such as QT interval

    Measured: Up to approximately 2 year

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. Objective response rate (ORR)

    ORR is defined as the percentage of participants achieving a confirmed complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) based on RECIST 1.1 criteria.

    Measured: Up to approximately 2 year

  2. Duration of response (DOR)

    DOR is defined as the time from first evidence of response (CR or PR per RECIST 1.1) to earlier date of disease progression or death due to any cause

    Measured: Up to approximately 2 year

  3. disease control rate (DCR)

    Measured: Up to approximately 2 year

  4. Maximum plasma concentration (Cmax) of ZG006

    Measured: Baseline and up to approximately 1 year

  5. Time to peak concentration (Tmax)

    Measured: Up to approximately 1 year

  6. AUC from time zero to the last quantifiable concentration after dosing (AUC[0-t]) of ZG006

    Measured: Up to approximately 1 year

  7. Terminal phase half-life (t1/2) of ZG006

    Measured: Up to approximately 1 year

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing ZG006 in people with Small Cell Lung Cancer and Neuroendocrine Carcinoma, run by Suzhou Zelgen Biopharmaceuticals Co.,Ltd at 1 site in China.

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 9 inclusion and 19 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 5 Jan 2026. 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 China. 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?

Contact Hewen Yin (+86-02158942758, yinhw@zelgen.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

The incidence of dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) (time frame: Up to 28 days). The study lists 7 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 5 Jan 2026.
