This phase I study is trying to understand how safe, tolerable and effective a new anti-cancer drug (BLYG8824A) is in people with colorectal cancer.A Phase I, Open-Label, Dose-Escalation Study Of The Safety And Pharmacokinetics Of BLYG8824A Administered Intravenously In Patients With Locally Advanced Or Metastatic Colorectal Cancer

Clinical summary

Summary

This is a non-randomised trial with two experimental stages.

In the Dose Escalation Stage, participants will be assigned sequentially to escalating doses of BLYG8824A, up to the maximum tolerated dose (MTD).

In the Dose Expansion Stage, once dose escalation is completed and the MTD (or MAD) has been identified, a recommended expansion dose will be proposed for the dose-expansion stage of the trial. BLYG8824A will be administered at a flat dose independent of body weight.

Conditions

This trial is treating patients with colorectal cancer.

  • Progression must have occurred during or after most recent treatment for locally advanced or metastatic colorectal cancer
  • For patients enrolled in either a dedicated biopsy cohort or other expansion cohorts where biopsy is clinically feasible, willingness to consent to mandatory fresh pretreatment and on-treatment biopsies of safely accessible tumor lesions

Exclusion
