A Study to Evaluate the Safety, Pharmacokinetics and Efficacy of TJ101 in Patients With Advanced/Metastatic Solid Tumors (NCT07181473)

A Phase I, First in Human (FIH), Open-label, Dose Escalation and Dose Expansion Study to Evaluate the Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics (PK), Preliminary Efficacy and Immunogenicity of TJ101 for Injection in Patients With Advanced/Metastatic Solid Tumors

🟢 Recruiting Phase1 💊 Investigational Drug / Biologic Sponsor: Phrontline Biopharma

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

The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate whether TJ101, an investigational antibody-drug conjugate (ADC), can safely and effectively treat patients with advanced solid tumors. The main objectives of this study are : * To Determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and recommended dose for expansion (RDE) of TJ101 * to show preliminary antitumor activity in patients with advanced solid tumors Participants will: * Receive intravenous (IV) infusions of TJ101 at escalating dose levels (during dose escalation) or at the selected expansion dose. * Undergo regular tumor imaging to assess response. * Provide blood samples for pharmacokinetics (PK) and biomarker analysis. * Be monitored for side effects and overall tolerability. This study is being conducted in adult patients with advanced or metastatic solid tumors who have exhausted standard treatment options

Who can join: To join this study, participants generally need to meet the listed inclusion criteria (13 items) and avoid the listed exclusions (17 items).

Location: Florida Cancer Specialists & Research Institute — Orlando, Florida

Age range: 18 Years

Instant Checklist

Check every box below. If you can check all of them, you may meet the study's basic screening requirements (final eligibility is confirmed by the site team).

Usually NOT eligible if any of the following apply:

  • Exclusion Criteria:
  • Has received treatment of topoisomerase 1 inhibitors (TOP1i), including topotecan, irinotecan, belotecan, and TOP1i-based antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs, eg, sacituzumab govitecan, trastuzumab deruxtecan, zalontamab brengitecan, sacituzumab tirumotecan etal);
  • Has known hypersensitivity to any component of TJ101 or has a history of severe hypersensitivity reactions to other monoclonal antibodies;
  • Has received mitomycin and nitrosoureas treatment within 6 weeks prior to the first administration; oral fluorouracil-like drugs such as S-1, capecitabine, or palliative radiotherapy within 2 weeks prior to the first administration; Has received other chemotherapy, biological therapy, immunotherapy, major surgery, radical radiotherapy, targeted therapy (including small molecule inhibitor of tyrosine kinase) and other anti-tumor therapy within 5 half-lives or 28 days, whichever is shorter, prior to the first administration of TJ101; Has received anti-tumor herbal medicine within 14 days prior to first dose of TJ101;
  • Has received a strong or moderate CYP3A4 inhibitor within 3 half-lives;
  • Received an investigational drug within 28 days or 2 half-lives (whichever is shorter) prior to first dose of TJ101; Current participation in other interventional clinical studies (participation in survival follow-up is allowed);
  • Toxic effects of prior anti-tumor therapy have not recovered to NCI-CTCAE V5.0 Grade ≤1 (excluding alopecia and skin pigmentation). Subject with irreversible toxicities caused by prior anti-tumor therapy (eg, hearing loss) that will not increase the safety risk may be eligible at the discretion of the Investigator.
  • Has a history of (non-infectious) interstitial lung disease (ILD) that required steroids, has current ILD/pneumonitis, or where suspected ILD/pneumonitis can't be ruled out by imaging at screening.
  • Presence of severe dry eye syndrome, severe keratitis, severe conjunctivitis, or other severe conditions that may increase the risk of corneal epithelial damage at the discretion of investigator.
  • Uncontrolled or significant cardiovascular disease, including: Prolongation of the average Corrected QT interval (QTc, Fridericia's correction formula used) (\> 470 ms regardless of sex). Clinically significant arrhythmia, unstable angina pectoris, congestive heart failure (class II-IV of New York Heart Association \[NYHA\]) or acute myocardial infarction within preceding 6 months. History of additional risk factors for Torsades de Pointes (TdP) (e.g., heart failure, hypokalemia, family history of Long QT Syndrome). Uncontrolled hypertension defined as systolic BP ≥160 mm Hg or diastolic BP ≥100 mm Hg while receiving more than one kind of antihypertensive drug.
  • For patients with documented positive virology status of hepatitis, as confirmed by Screening hepatitis B virus (HBV) and hepatitis C virus (HCV) tests, only the following patients may be eligible as evaluated by the sponsor and investigator: Patients with active hepatitis B: HBV DNA ≤500 IU/mL during Screening. Patients who are hepatitis C virus antibody positive (HCV Ab+), who have controlled infection (HCV RNA≤ULN by polymerase chain reaction \[PCR\] either spontaneously or in response to a successful prior course of anti-HCV therapy at Screening). Patients with controlled infections must undergo periodic monitoring of HCV RNA as per treating physician.
  • Known HIV infection;
