NCT ID: NCT05245071

Last Updated: 2025-08-29

Results Overview

The ORR was defined as percentage of participants with confirmed complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) as best overall response (BOR) determined per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) version (v) 1.1. The CR was defined as disappearance of all target lesions and any pathological lymph nodes (whether target or non-target) must have reduction in short axis to \<10 millimeters (mm). The PR was defined as at least a 30% decrease in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum of diameters.

Participant Flow

The study was conducted at 35 investigational sites in 7 countries. A total of 30 participants were screened from 01-Jun-2022 to 01-Dec-2023 of which 8 were screen failures due to not meeting eligibility criteria. The study was terminated as per Sponsor decision and not related to any safety concern.

A total of 22 participants were enrolled in the study. Note: Reason for not completed = Reason for permanent full study intervention discontinuation.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: Tumor assessments performed at baseline, and every 8 weeks +/-7 days thereafter, approximately 46 weeks

Population: All-treated population included all enrolled participants exposed to the study treatment, regardless of the amount of treatment administered.

The ORR was defined as percentage of participants with confirmed complete response (CR) or partial response (PR) as best overall response (BOR) determined per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) version (v) 1.1. The CR was defined as disappearance of all target lesions and any pathological lymph nodes (whether target or non-target) must have reduction in short axis to \<10 millimeters (mm). The PR was defined as at least a 30% decrease in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum of diameters.

Interval 1.12 to 29.16

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: From the first dose of study treatment (Day 1) up to 30 days after the last dose of study treatment, approximately 84 weeks

Population: All-treated population included all enrolled participants exposed to the study treatment, regardless of the amount of treatment administered.

An AE was any untoward medical occurrence in a participant or clinical study participant, temporally associated with the use of study treatment, whether or not considered related to the study treatment. An SAE was defined as any untoward medical occurrence that, at any dose: resulted in death or was life-threatening or required inpatient hospitalization or prolongation of existing hospitalization or resulted in persistent disability/incapacity or congenital anomaly/birth defect or was a suspected transmission of any infectious agent via an authorized medicinal product. TEAE was defined as AEs that developed, worsened, or became serious during the treatment-emergent period.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Tumor assessments performed at baseline, and every 8 weeks +/-7 days thereafter, approximately 46 weeks

Population: All-treated population included all enrolled participants exposed to the study treatment, regardless of the amount of treatment administered.

The PFS was defined as the time from the first study treatment administration to the date of the first documented progressive disease (PD) or death due to any cause, whichever came first as per RECIST v1.1. PD was defined as at least a 20% increase in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the smallest sum on study. In addition to the relative increase of 20%, the sum must also demonstrate an absolute increase of at least 5 mm. The appearance of 1 or more new lesions was also considered progression.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Tumor assessments performed at baseline, and every 8 weeks +/-7 days thereafter, approximately 46 weeks

Population: All-treated population included all enrolled participants exposed to the study treatment, regardless of the amount of treatment administered.

The DCR was defined as the percentage of participants who achieved confirmed CR, PR or stable disease (SD) as BOR as per RECIST v1.1. The CR was defined as disappearance of all target lesions and any pathological lymph nodes (whether target or non-target) must have reduction in short axis to \<10 mm. The PR was defined as at least a 30%decrease in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum of diameters. SD was defined as neither sufficient shrinkage from the baseline study to qualify for PR nor sufficient increase to qualify for PD, taking as reference the smallest sum of diameters while on the study.

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Tumor assessments performed at baseline, and every 8 weeks +/-7 days thereafter, approximately 46 weeks

Population: All-treated population included all enrolled participants exposed to the study treatment, regardless of the amount of treatment administered. Only responders (those participants with confirmed CR or PR) were included in the analysis.

The DOR was defined as the time from first documented evidence of CR or PR until PD determined per RECIST v1.1 or death from any cause, whichever occurred first. The CR was defined as disappearance of all target lesions and any pathological lymph nodes (whether target or non-target) must have reduction in short axis to \<10 mm. The PR was defined as at least a 30% decrease in the sum of diameters of target lesions, taking as reference the baseline sum of diameters.
