Clinical summary

Summary

The purpose of this study is to assess the adverse events and changes in disease activity when ABBV-400 is given to adult participants to treat advanced solid cancers.

ABBV-400 is an investigational drug being developed for the treatment of advanced solid cancers. Study doctors will put participants in groups called cohorts. Each cohort receives ABBV-400 alone (monotherapy) followed by a safety follow-up period. 

Approximately 260 adult participants hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC), biliary tract cancers (BTC), oesophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC), triple negative breast cancer (TNBC), hormone receptor+/human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 negative (HER2-) breast cancer (HR+/HER2- BC), head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC), platinum high grade epithelial ovarian cancer (PROC)/primary peritoneal/fallopian tube cancer, or advanced solid tumours, will be enrolled in the study in approximately 54 sites worldwide.

Please note, Austin Health is currently only recruiting people with Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), Oesophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) and Head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). 

In each cohort, participants with the following advanced solid tumour indications: HCC, PDAC, BTC, ESCC, TNBC, HR+/HER2-BC, HNSCC, and PROC/primary peritoneal/fallopian tube cancer will receive intravenous (IV) ABBV-400 monotherapy for up to 2 years during and up to the treatment period with an additional safety follow-up period of up to 2 years.

There may be higher treatment burden for participants in this trial compared to their standard of care. Participants will attend regular visits during the study at an approved institution (hospital or clinic). The effect of the treatment will be frequently checked by medical assessments, blood tests, questionnaires and side effects. 

Conditions

This trial is treating people with metastatic or locally advanced solid cancers

Eligibility

Inclusion

  • Laboratory values meeting the criteria laid out in the protocol.
  • Measurable disease per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) version 1.1.
  • Documented diagnosis of locally advanced or metastatic hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC), biliary tract cancers (BTC), squamous cell carcinoma of the esophagus, (ESCC), triple negative breast cancer (TNBC), hormone receptor+/HER2-breast cancer (HR+/HER2-BC), head and neck squamous-cell-carcinoma (HNSCC), or Platinum Resistant High Grade Epithelial Ovarian Cancer (PROC)/primary peritoneal/fallopian tube cancer (by World Health Organization [WHO] criteria). Participant meets the criteria for disease activity laid out in the protocol.

Exclusion

  • Have received anticancer therapy including chemotherapy, radiation therapy, immunotherapy, biologic, or any investigational therapy within 28 days or 5 half-lives of the drug (whichever is shorter) prior to the first dose of ABBV-400. Palliative radiation therapy for bone, skin, or subcutaneous metastases with 10 fractions or less is permitted and not subject to a washout period.
  • Unresolved clinically significant AEs > Grade 1 from prior anticancer therapy.
  • History of interstitial lung disease (ILD) or pneumonitis that required treatment with systemic steroids, or any evidence of active ILD or pneumonitis, including but not limited to those listed in the protocol.
  • History of clinically significant, intercurrent lung-specific illnesses, including those laid out in the protocol.
  • Untreated brain or meningeal metastases (i.e., participants with history of metastases are eligible provided they do not require ongoing steroid treatment for cerebral edema and have shown clinical and radiographic stability for at least 14 days after definitive therapy). Participants may continue on antiepileptic therapy if required.
  • History of other active malignancy, with the exception of those laid out in the protocol.
  • Any autoimmune, connective tissue or inflammatory disorders with documented or suspicious pulmonary involvement at screening (i.e., rheumatoid arthritis, Sjogren's, sarcoidosis etc.), and prior pneumonectomy.

Inclusion

  • Your cancer has not spread to other parts of the body (localised).
  • Your cancer has not spread to other parts of the body, but it is not possible to perform surgery to remove it (unresectable).

Exclusion

  • You have been diagnosed with a prior or secondary type of cancer.
  • You have certain types of non-cancer medical conditions.
  • You have had certain treatments, surgical procedures or drugs.
