A Study to Test Different Doses of Obrixtamig in Patients With Small Cell Lung Cancer and Other Neuroendocrine Tumours That Are Positive for DLL3

What this study is about

This study is open to adults with small cell lung cancer and other neuroendocrine cancers that are positive for the tumour marker delta-like 3 (DLL3). The study is in people with advanced cancer for whom previous treatment was not successful or no standard treatment exists.

View original scientific description

This study is open to adults with small cell lung cancer and other neuroendocrine cancers that are positive for the tumour marker delta-like 3 (DLL3). The study is in people with advanced cancer for whom previous treatment was not successful or no standard treatment exists. The purpose of this study is to find out the highest dose of obrixtamig and the best treatment schedule that people can tolerate. Obrixtamig is an antibody-like molecule (DLL3/CD3 bispecific) that may help the immune system fight cancer. In this study, obrixtamig is given to people for the first time. Interim clinical data are available for obrixtamig. Participants get obrixtamig either weekly or once every 3 weeks. If there is benefit for the participants and if they can tolerate it, the treatment is given for a maximum of 3 years. During this time, participants visit the study site about 20 times depending on the response to the treatment. Doctors record any unwanted effects and regularly check the general health of the participants.

Who can participate

This study lists these criteria on ClinicalTrials.gov. A study coordinator reviews eligibility during screening — this page does not determine whether you qualify.

Inclusion criteria

  • Signed and dated, written informed consent form (ICF2, ICF3 or ICF4) in accordance with International Council for Harmonisation of Technical Requirements for Pharmaceuticals for Human Use (ICH) - Good Clinical Practice (GCP) and local legislation prior to any trial-specific procedures, sampling, or analyses.
  • Locally advanced or metastatic cancer not amenable to curative treatment; of following histologies:
  • Small cell lung carcinoma (SCLC)
  • Large cells neuroendocrine lung carcinoma (LCNEC)
  • Neuroendocrine carcinoma (NEC) or small cell carcinoma of any other origin
  • Tumours must be positive for DLL3 expression (on archived tissue or instudy fresh biopsy) according to central pathology review in order to start obrixtamig
  • Patients with tumours with mixed histologies for any above type are eligible only if neuroendocrine carcinoma/small tumor cells component is predominant and represent at least 50% of the overall tumour tissue.
  • For back-fill cohorts only: patient has agreed to and signed an IC to provide mandatory pre-treatment and on-treatment fresh tumor biopsy.
  • Patient has failed or is not eligible for available standard therapies according to local guidelines. Standard therapies should include at least one line of chemotherapy that should include platinum for patients with small cells carcinoma tumors histologies.
  • Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0-1.
  • At least one evaluable lesion outside of CNS as defined per modified Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors (RECIST) 1.1.
  • Subjects with brain metastases are eligible provided they meet the following criteria:
  • Radiotherapy or surgery for brain metastases was completed at least 2 weeks prior to the first administration of obrixtamig
  • Patient is off steroids for at least 7 days (physiologic doses of steroids are permitted), and the patient is off anti-epileptic drugs for at least 7 days or on stable doses of anti-epileptic drugs for malignant Central Nervous System (CNS) disease.
  • Adequate liver, bone marrow and renal organ function. Further inclusion criteria apply.

Exclusion criteria

  • Previous treatment with T cell Engager (TcE) or cell therapies targeting DLL3. Other DLL3 targeting agents (like Rovalpituzumab tesirine (RovaT)) are allowed only if DLL3 positivity is documented after completion of treatment with DLL3 targeting agent in post-treatment biopsy.
  • Anticoagulant treatment that cannot be safely interrupted based on opinion of the investigator if medically needed (e.g. biopsy).
  • Persistent toxicity from previous treatments that has not resolved to = Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) Grade 1 (except for alopecia, CTCAE Grade 2 neuropathy, asthenia/fatigue or grade 2 endocrinopathies controlled by replacement therapy).
  • Patient has a diagnosis of immunodeficiency or is receiving systemic steroid therapy or any other form of immunosuppressive therapy within 7 days prior to the first dose of obrixtamig. Physiological replacement of steroids is allowed.
  • Prior anti-cancer therapy:
  • Patients who have been treated with any other anti-cancer drug within 3 weeks or within 5 half-life periods (whichever is shorter) prior to first administration of obrixtamig.
  • Patients who have been treated with extensive field radiotherapy including whole brain irradiation within 2 weeks prior to first administration of obrixtamig.
  • Other active malignancy that could interfere with the prognosis and treatment of the disease of the study.
  • Major surgery within 28 days of first dose obrixtamig.
  • Women who are pregnant (including those who are considered to be possibly pregnant based on the investigator's clinical judgement), nursing/breast feeding or who plan to become pregnant or nurse while in the trial or within 60 days after the last dose of study treatment.
  • Presence of any infection requiring systemic antimicrobial treatment within 7 days prior to first dose of trial medication. Patients who have any clinical signs of infection within 48 h prior to first dose of trial medication are not eligible. Further exclusion criteria apply.

Frequently asked questions

What is a clinical trial?

A clinical trial is a research study that tests new medical treatments, drugs, devices, or procedures to determine their safety and effectiveness. Trials are carefully designed and monitored to protect participants while advancing medical knowledge.

Is it safe to participate?

Clinical trials follow strict safety guidelines and ethical standards. Trials must be reviewed and approved, and participants are closely monitored by medical professionals throughout the study. You can withdraw at any time if you choose.

Will I be compensated?

Many clinical trials offer compensation for your time, travel expenses, and inconvenience. The specific compensation varies by study and will be discussed during the screening process. All study-related medical care is typically provided at no cost to participants.

Will I receive a placebo instead of treatment?

When effective treatment exists, participants typically receive either the standard treatment plus the study intervention, or the standard treatment plus placebo. You would not be denied effective care. Placebos are primarily used when no proven treatment is available, or in addition to standard care. Your trial consent form will clearly explain what treatments you may receive.

Can I leave a trial if I change my mind?

Absolutely. Participation in clinical trials is completely voluntary. You have the right to withdraw from the study at any time, for any reason, without penalty or loss of benefits to which you are otherwise entitled.

How long does a clinical trial last?

Trial duration varies widely depending on the study design and purpose. Some trials last just a few weeks, while others may continue for months or years. The study coordinator will provide specific timeline information during your screening call.
