Clinical summary

Summary

This study is testing a new drug called BNT3214 (also known as PM8102) in people for the first time. The aim is to find out whether the drug is safe, and how well it works in adults with advanced solid cancers.

Who can participate?
You may be eligible if you:

  • are aged 18 years or older
  • have a solid cancer that is locally advanced, recurrent or has spread to other parts of the body (metastatic)
  • your cancer has worsened after previous treatment, or standard treatments are no longer suitable or have not worked for you

The study will have three parts.

Part A and B (dose finding)
These early parts will test different doses of BNT3214. The goal is to find the safest dose and the dose that is most likely to work.

Part B may only go ahead if results from Part A suggest that a different dosing schedule could be better.

Part C (expansion phase)
This part looks at how well selected doses work in different types of cancer.

There will be different groups (cohorts) in this phase:

  • Some are dose optimisation cohorts, where participants are randomly assigned (by chance) to one of two dose levels to compare them.
  • Others are dose expansion cohorts, where participants are assigned to cancer-specific groups based on earlier results.

What participation involves
Participants will receive BNT3214 for up to 2 years, or until one of the following happens:

  • the cancer gets worse
  • the treatment causes unacceptable side effects
  • the participant chooses to stop
  • the doctor decides the treatment is no longer helping
  • the study ends for other reasons

Conditions

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

Eligibility

Inclusion

  • Participants aged ≥18 years of age inclusive at the time of giving informed consent.
  • Have at least one measurable tumor lesion based on RECIST v1.1. One lesion with prior local treatment (i.e., radiotherapy) can be considered measurable only if a disease progression from prior local treatment was demonstrated in the lesion per RECIST v1.1.
  • Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status of 0 or 1.
  • Have a predicted life expectancy ≥3 months.
  • Have histologically or cytologically confirmed locally advanced, recurrent, or metastatic solid tumors that have progressed after at least one available standard therapy; or for whom the standard therapy is considered to be ineffective, inappropriate or intolerable; or for whom a clinical study of an investigational agent is a recognized standard of care.
  • Have adequate liver function as defined in the protocol.
  • Have adequate renal function as defined in the protocol.
  • Have adequate hematologic function as defined in the protocol.
  • Have adequate coagulation as defined in the protocol.

Exclusion

  • Untreated or symptomatic central nervous system (CNS) metastases and leptomeningeal disease.
  • Have a primary CNS malignancy.
  • Have active, or a history of, pneumonitis requiring treatment with steroids, or have active, or a history of, interstitial lung disease.
  • Have clinically significant pulmonary complications including, but not limited to, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, restrictive lung disease, lung injury accompanied with autoimmune disease/connective tissue disorders.
  • Have a history of severe cardiovascular disease.
  • Have a history of significant hematologic toxicity to prior lines of therapy, as assessed by the investigator.
  • Have uncontrolled hypertension or poorly controlled diabetes prior to allocation or randomization.
  • Have concurrent malignancy within 5 years prior to allocation or randomization (protocol defined exceptions apply).
  • Have unstable thrombotic event (e.g., deep vein thrombosis, arterial thrombosis, pulmonary embolism) requiring therapeutic intervention within 3 months prior to allocation or randomization, unless the participant has been fully treated (e.g., inferior vena cava filter placed) and/or adequately anticoagulated on a prophylactic dose.
  • Have known human immunodeficiency virus infection or known acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (protocol defined exceptions apply).
  • Have an active hepatitis B virus infection.
  • Have an active hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection. Participants with a negative HCV antibody test at screening or positive HCV antibody test followed by a negative HCV ribonucleic acid test at screening are eligible. Participants who have completed curative antiviral treatment with HCV viral load below the limit of quantification are allowed.
  • Have adverse reactions from prior anti-tumor therapy that have not returned to Grade ≤1, except for alopecia or toxicities (not specified elsewhere) considered irreversible and posing no safety risk to participants.
  • Have active, or history of, autoimmune disease (e.g., myasthenia gravis, myositis, autoimmune hepatitis, systemic lupus erythematosus, rheumatoid arthritis, psoriatic arthritis, vasculitis, inflammatory bowel disease, antiphospholipid antibody syndrome, Wegener granulomatosis, Sjögren's syndrome, Guillain-Barré syndrome, or multiple sclerosis) (protocol defined exceptions apply).
  • Have serious non-healing wounds, ulcer, or bone fracture.
  • Participants with lung cancer who have major coagulation disorders or an increased risk of hemorrhage (per investigator's clinical judgment)
  • Have a history of serious Grade ≥3 immune-related adverse events (irAEs) that led to treatment discontinuation of a prior immunotherapy. Participants with a history of Grade ≥3 irAEs that did not lead to treatment discontinuation of a prior immunotherapy should be evaluated and determined by investigators for potential safety risk.
  • Have a history of small bowel obstruction requiring hospitalization within the past 3 months prior to allocation or randomization.
  • Current or prior use of immunosuppressive medication within 14 days before the first dose of study treatment (protocol defined exceptions apply).
  • Have received any of the following therapies or drugs within the noted time intervals prior to allocation or randomization:

    • Systemic corticosteroids (at a dosage greater than 10 mg/day of prednisone or an equivalent dose of other corticosteroids) within 10 days prior to the initiation of study treatment.
    • Have been vaccinated with live, attenuated vaccine(s) within 4 weeks prior to initiation of the study treatment.

NOTE: Other protocol defined Inclusion/Exclusion criteria apply.

Inclusion

  • You have had treatment, but your cancer has come back (relapsed or recurrent).
  • Your cancer has spread to other parts of the body (metastatic) or has grown into nearby parts of the body (locally advanced).
  • Your cancer has not spread to other parts of the body, but it is not possible to perform surgery to remove it (unresectable).
  • You have had treatment but your cancer has gotten worse or has not responded to the treatment you have been given.

Exclusion

  • You have certain types of non-cancer medical conditions.
  • You have had certain treatments, surgical procedures or drugs.
Message

Clinical trials have complex eligibility criteria, and other criteria may apply for this trial. Ask your doctor about whether this trial could be right for you.
