Clinical Trial Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine if Angiocal® (PRS-050-PEG40) is safe and well tolerated when it is injected into the veins of patients with solid tumors. Other purposes of this study are to investigate how the body of the patients reacts to Angiocal®, how the blood level of Angiocal® develops after injection and how the tumor responds to the injection of Angiocal®.

Description:

This is a phase I, open-label, dose escalation study with Angiocal® in patients with solid tumors using a group sequential adaptive treatment assignment. Patients will be allocated to different dose levels in small cohorts and will receive one single dose application on Day 1, followed by a repeated dosing period. The primary objective of the study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of Angiocal® when administered intravenously to patients with solid tumors. The secondary objectives of the study are the characterization of the pharmacodynamic response, evaluation of the pharmacokinetic profile of Angiocal®, observation of tumor response.

Outcome

Type	Measure	Description	Time frame	Safety issue
Primary	Dose limiting toxicity	Dose limiting toxicity is determined by recording and evaluating adverse events / toxicity.	Throughout the course of the study	Yes
Secondary	Pharmacokinetic analysis	AUC_0- t; AUC_0-tlast; AUC_0-8; C_max; T_max; t_½; CL; V_z; V_ss; RA_AUC; RA_Cmax; RL; dose normalized values (norm) for AUC_0-t and C_max will be determined by dividing the original toxicokinetic parameter by the dose level.	Throughout the course of the study	No
Secondary	Development of biomarkers in blood over time		Throughout the course of the study	No
Secondary	Response of target lesions over time	The objective tumor response for target lesions will be presented over time, employing the categories 'complete response', 'partial response, 'progressive disease´ and 'stable disease' and absolute changes.	Throughout the course of the study	No
Secondary	ECOG performance status	ECOG = Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group	Throughout the course of the study	No
Secondary	Clinical laboratory measures	Hematology, biochemistry, coagulation parameters, and urinalysis.	Throughout the course of the study	Yes
Secondary	Anti-drug antibodies		Throughout the course of the study	Yes
Secondary	Results of 12-lead Electrocardiogram by time point	Changes from the baseline visit will be presented using shift tables (employing the categories 'normal', 'abnormal, clinically not significant' and 'abnormal, clinically significant') and absolute changes in laboratory values, if appropriate. Changes from the baseline visit in QTc between >30 and <60 ms and >60 ms will be listed and summarized separately.	Throughout the course of the study	Yes
Secondary	Changes of vital signs from the baseline visit	Heart rate, blood pressure and body temperature.	Throughout the course of the study	Yes
Secondary	Physical examination	Any changes in physical examination findings from baseline visit will just be summarized, since the physical examiniations will not result in measurable values.	Throughout the course of the study	Yes
