About this study
Official title: An Open-Label, Multicenter, First-in-Human, Phase 1 Study of ES009 in Subjects With Locally Advanced or Metastatic Solid Tumors
The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and preliminary clinical activity of ES009 administered intravenously to subjects with advanced solid tumors.
Read the detailed description
ES009 is a recombinant humanized IgG4 monoclonal antibody that specifically targets and blocks LILRB2. By reprograming suppressive myeloid cells into pro-inflammatory phenotypes, ES009 reshapes the immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment into an immune-favorable one to combat cancer development and progression.
This is a first-in-human, open-label, multicenter, non-randomized study designed to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD)/maximum administered dose (MAD), optimal biological dose (OBD), and recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) of ES009 by evaluating the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and preliminary clinical activity of ES009 administered intravenously to subjects with advanced solid tumors.
- Conditions
- Advanced Solid Tumor
- Being tested
- ES009
- Keywords

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 1 study testing ES009 in people with Advanced Solid Tumor, run by Elpiscience Biopharma Australia Pty. Ltd. at 4 sites in Australia.
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 7 inclusion and 23 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 23 Jun 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 4 sites in Australia. 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 is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.
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?
The frequency and severity of adverse events of ES009 (time frame: 1-3 years). The study lists 5 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 23 Jun 2025.
