Study Summary

This trial is testing a new drug, DYP688, to see if it is safe and effective at treating metastatic uveal melanoma, a type of skin cancer.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for patients with metastatic uveal melanoma or other melanomas with GNAQ/11 mutations. Adults and, in some cases, children over 12 can join if they weigh at least 40 kg and are healthy enough (good performance status). They must be willing to undergo biopsies unless medically inadvisable. Patients should not have active brain metastases, significant bleeding risks, recent cancer treatments that could interfere, other cancers, severe allergies to similar drugs, or uncontrolled heart disease.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study is testing DYP688 as a single agent for its safety and effectiveness against certain types of advanced melanoma. It's an open-label trial meaning everyone knows what treatment they're getting. The first phase checks the right dose and the second phase sees how well it works on different groups including those who've had standard treatments or specific prior therapy.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
While specific side effects of DYP688 aren't listed here, common ones for cancer treatments like this may include fatigue, nausea, allergic reactions to the drug infusion itself (like fever or chills), potential bleeding issues due to biopsies especially in people with clotting problems.

Trial Design

4Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Group I: Phase II: Tebe pre-treatedExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Patients with metastatic uveal melanoma that have been previously treated with tebentafusp
Group II: Phase II: Tebe naive groupExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Patients with metastatic uveal melanoma that has not received prior treatment with tebentafusp
Group III: Phase II: Non-uveal melanomaExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Optional Arm: To explore patients with non-uveal melanoma that harbor GNAQ or 11 mutations, based on emerging data from dose escalation

What positive outcomes does this clinical trial hope to bring about?

"The primary outcome of this trial will be evaluated over a 28 day period, and it is to Phase I (Dose Escalation): Frequency of dose interruptions, reductions, and discontinuations. Additionally, the secondary outcomes include Phase I and Phase II: PK profile of DYP688 - Total body clearance (CL), which is defined as Pharmacokinetic parameters will be determined by non-compartmental methods using pharmacokinetic profile of DYP688. Another secondary outcome is Phase I and Phase II: PK profile of DYP688 - Elimination half-life (t1/2), which is defined as Pharmac"
