New treatment option for Advanced/Metastatic Solid Tumors
Official title A Study of Bispecific Antibody MCLA-158 in Patients With Advanced Solid Tumors
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT03526835
What this study is testing
What is MCLA-158?
MCLA-158 is an investigational medicine, being studied as a potential treatment for advanced/metastatic solid tumors.
Also referred to as petosemtamab.
Plain-language explanation of the investigational treatment - it is being studied and is not an approved or proven therapy. The study team can confirm the details.
- What it's testing
- This is a Phase 1/2 open-label, multi-center, multi-national study with an initial dose escalation part to determine the recommended Phase II dose (RP2D) of MCLA-158 single agent in patients with mCRC. The dose escalation part has been completed and the RP2D will be further evaluated in an expansion part of the study.
- Phase 2: a mid-size study of how well it works
A plain-language read of the study's public ClinicalTrials.gov listing. The study team confirms the details.
