About this study

Official title: A Phase 1 Dose-Escalation and Expansion Study of Intratumorally Administered ONM-501 Alone and in Combination With Cemiplimab in Patients With Advanced Solid Tumors and Lymphomas

A phase 1, multicenter, open label, non-randomized dose escalation and dose expansion study to examine the maximum tolerated dose, (MTD), minimum effective dose (MED) and/or recommended dose for expansion (RDE) of intratumoral ONM-501 as monotherapy and in combination with a PD-1 checkpoint inhibitor in patients with advanced solid tumors and lymphomas.

Read the detailed description

This Phase 1, multi-center trial will consist of three parts: monotherapy dose escalation; combination therapy dose finding; and combination therapy dose expansion exploring two doses in specific tumor indication(s). Each dosing cycle of ONM-501 will be 21 days. ONM 501 will be administered as intratumoral injections once per week for three weeks (on Days 1, 8, and 15), followed by three weeks without ONM-501 administration. The monotherapy dose escalation will utilize an accelerated titration method.

The combination agent will be administered according to standard protocol, once every three weeks. This phase will evaluate ONM-501 in combination with approved immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) cemiplimab. Enrollment in this phase will follow a "Rolling 6" or 6+0 methodology - up to 6 patients will be enrolled in a staggered format; dose escalation of ONM-501 will be permitted.

Once the recommended doses for expansion (RDEs) are determined for ONM-501 + ICI combination or ONM-501 monotherapy, the expansion phase of this study will be initiated. The expansion phase will enroll patients in one to three indication-specific expansion cohorts.

What is being measured

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

  1. Dose Escalation and Expansion Phases: Number of Participants Reporting one or More Treatment-emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs) and Based on TEAEs Severity

    AE incidence will be coded using Medical Dictionary for Regulatory Activities (MedDRA) terminology. AE severity will be graded according to NCI CTCAE version 5.0 or later. Grade 1 scales as Mild (asymptomatic or mild symptoms; clinical or diagnostic observations only; intervention not indicated); Grade 2 scales as Moderate (minimal, local or noninvasive intervention indicated; limiting age-appropriate instrumental Activities of Daily Living [ADL]); Grade 3 scales as Severe (severe or medically significant but not immediately life threatening hospitalization or prolongation of hospitalization indicated; disabling; limiting self-care ADL); Grade 4 scales as Life-threatening consequences, urgent intervention indicated, and Grade 5 scales as Death related to Adverse Event (AE)

    Measured: Up to approximately 24 months

  2. Dose Escalation and Expansion Phases: Number of Participants with Dose-Limiting Toxicities (DLTs)

    DLT will be defined as the occurrence of any of the following events in the first 28 days of treatment in the dose escalation cohorts in Part 1 of the study or in the first 28 days of treatment for the first 6 patients at any dose in Part 1b (DLT observation periods). Any adverse event resulting in a dose hold or delay of ≥ 28 days will be considered a DLT. Toxicity will be evaluated according to NCI CTCAE version 5.0.

    Measured: Up to approximately 24 months

  3. Dose Escalation and Expansion Phases: Number of Participants Reporting One or More Treatment Emergent Serious Adverse Event (SAEs)

    AE incidence will be coded using Medical Dictionary for Regulatory Activities (MedDRA) terminology. AE severity will be graded according to NCI CTCAE version 5.0 or later.

    Measured: Up to approximately 24 months

    DOR analyses will be conducted for those patients in the Efficacy Analysis Set who achieve an objective response and is defined as the time from first objective status assessment of CR or PR until documentation of objective disease progression or death from any cause. Patients who do not progress and do not die will be censored on the date of last adequate tumor assessment. If no further adequate post-treatment tumor assessments were obtained for a patient, DOR will be censored at the date of the objective response (i.e., zero duration). DOR will be assessed based on RECIST v1.1.

    Measured: Up to approximately 24 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing ONM-501 and Cemiplimab in people with Triple Negative Breast Cancer and Diffuse Large B Cell Lymphoma, run by OncoNano Medicine, Inc. at 16 sites in 2 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 23 inclusion and 0 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 24 Dec 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 16 sites in United States, 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?

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 Trials@OncoNanoMed.com ((682) 285-1411, trials@onconanomed.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Dose Escalation and Expansion Phases: Number of Participants Reporting one or More Treatment-emergent Adverse Events (TEAEs) and Based on TEAEs Severity (time frame: Up to approximately 24 months). 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 24 Dec 2025; AzTrials last refreshed its copy on 26 Oct 2026.
