A Study of MGC028 in Participants With Advanced Solid Tumors (NCT06723236)

A Phase 1, First-in-Human, Open Label, Dose Escalation and Cohort Expansion Study of MGC028 in Participants With Advanced Solid Tumors

🟢 Recruiting Phase1 💊 Investigational Drug / Biologic Sponsor: MacroGenics

🩺 Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)

The goal of this clinical trial is to characterize the safety, tolerability, dose-limiting toxicities (DLT), and maximum tolerated dose (MTD) or maximum administered dose of MGC028 (if no MTD is defined). The study will enroll adult participants with relapsed or refractory, unresectable, locally advanced of metastatic solid tumors known to express ADAM9. The main question the study aims to answer is: * What types of side effects will participants experience when receiving MGC028? * Can MGC028 cause cancer to shrink, remain stable, or able to control disease progression of participants with advanced solid tumors? Participants will * Undergo screening procedures to determine eligibility * Receive study treatments initially every 3 weeks. * Have blood samples taken for routine and research tests * Have other examinations to check heart and lung function, and general health status * Be asked about any side effects that may be happening or other medications you are taking. The study doctor will provide treatment for side effects, if necessary. * Have the study doctor assess your tumor status at regular intervals to determine how you are responding to treatment.

Who can join: To join this study, participants generally need to meet the listed inclusion criteria (19 items) and avoid the listed exclusions (8 items).
