Clinical trials are an important way to improve treatment for people with cancer. While most are continuing during the COVID-19 pandemic, the period of time that clinical trials are available and recruiting may change quickly. If you would like to get involved in a clinical trial, speak to your treatment team or the health service where the clinical trial is being undertaken, to confirm it is open and appropriate for you. For cancer information and support, call Cancer Council's experienced cancer nurses on 13 11 20 Monday to Friday from 9am-5pm.

Scientific Title

Phase 1/2, Open-label, Dose Escalation and Dose Expansion Study of TransCon TLR7/8 Agonist Alone or in Combination With Pembrolizumab in Participants With Locally Advanced or Metastatic Solid Tumor Malignancies

Commercial Sponsor

Ascendis Pharma Oncology Division A/S

Summary

This is a non-randomised, open-label trial deigned to evaluate a new investigational drug (TransCon TLR7/8 Agonist) as monotherapy or in combination with pembrolizumab in dose escalation and dose expansion. Participants will receive an intratumoral (IT) injection of TransCon TLR7/8 Agonist every cycle. In Part 1 (Dose Escalation), participants will receive TransCon TLR7/8 Agonist monotherapy in escalating doses to evaluate safety and tolerability and to determine the MTD and RP2D. In Part 2 (dose escalation), participants will receive TransCon TLR7/8 Agonist in combination with pembrolizumab (administered intravenously [IV]) to evaluate safety/tolerability and determine the MTD and RP2D. In Part 3 (Dose Expansion), participants will receive TransCon TLR7/8 Agonist in combination with pembrolizumab using the RP2D from part 2 to evaluate the safety/tolerability and anti-tumour activity of the combined treatment.
