Recruiting PHASE1, PHASE2 Cancer Pain

New treatment option for Cancer Pain

Official title Phase I Study of sss40 Injection for Moderate-to-Severe Bone Metastatic Cancer Pain

ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT07008703

What this study is testing

What is Injection of humanized nerve growth factor (NGF) antibody?

Injection of humanized nerve growth factor (NGF) antibody is an investigational medicine, given as an injection under the skin, being studied as a potential treatment for cancer pain.

Also referred to as SSS40.

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 Ib/IIa, multicenter, sequential clinical trial evaluating the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), and preliminary efficacy of SSS40 injection in patients with moderate-to-severe bone metastatic cancer pain. The study includes two stages: a single-arm, open-label, dose-escalation and dose-expansion Phase Ib followed by a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled Phase IIa.
  • Phase 2: a mid-size study of how well it works
  • You might receive a placebo (an inactive treatment) instead of the study drug, decided by chance. You may not know which one you got.
