Recruiting PHASE1 B-cell Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma

New treatment option for B-cell Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma

ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT05365659

What this study is testing

What is IKS03?

IKS03 is an investigational medicine, being studied as a potential treatment for b-cell non-hodgkin lymphoma.

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 first-in-human study will evaluate the recommended dose for further clinical development, safety, tolerability, antineoplastic activity, immunogenicity, pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics of IKS03, a CD19 targeting antibody-drug conjugate, in patients with advanced B cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL).
  • Phase 1: an early, usually small safety study
