Study Summary

This trial is testing a new drug to see what the maximum amount someone can take without having severe side effects, as well as what dose could be recommended for further studies.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults with advanced solid tumors, specifically pancreatic, esophageal, gastric, or colorectal cancer. Participants must have tried standard treatments without success or declined them and have a good performance status (able to carry out daily activities). They need functioning major organs and agree to use contraception. Those with HIV or hepatitis are eligible under certain conditions.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests OBI-999 as a solo treatment to find the highest dose patients can tolerate without severe side effects (MTD) and the recommended dose for future Phase 2 trials (RP2D). It also aims to understand how safe OBI-999 is and its preliminary effectiveness in shrinking or controlling tumor growth.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Specific side effects of OBI-999 aren't listed but typically include reactions related to the immune system's response, potential organ inflammation due to drug toxicity, general discomforts like fatigue or nausea, and possibly changes in blood counts leading to increased infection risk.

Trial Design

2Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Group I: OBI-999 Expansion PhaseExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Part B: Five cohorts of patients at RP2D of OBI-999 liquid form, as determined from Part A, via IV infusion.
Group II: OBI-999 Escalation phaseExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Part A: Five cohorts at escalating dose levels 0.4, 0.8, 1.2, 1.6 and 2.0 mg/kg (capping calculations at a maximum at 100 kg) of OBI-999 liquid form via IV infusion to establish maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and Recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D).

Frequently Asked Questions

These questions and answers are submitted by anonymous patients, and have not been verified by our internal team.

Are there any empty slots currently available for this research program?

"Affirmative. According to clinicaltrials.gov, this investigation is currently recruiting participants, which began on December 10th 2019 and was recently refreshed on July 5th 2022. 185 individuals are required at 4 sites for the study's completion."

Answered by AI

What aims does this trial seek to attain?

"This research study's primary objective is to determine the maximum tolerated dose of OBI-999 and an ideal dosage for Phase 2. Secondary aims include analysing pharmacokinetic parameters such as time to peak concentration (Tmax) and volume of distribution (Vd), along with assessing preliminary clinical activity profiles in terms of duration of response (DOR). The data collection period will cover 21 consecutive days per cycle."

Answered by AI

Are there numerous venues providing access to this research?

"Several research centres are taking part in this trial, including the University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center in Houston and West Cancer Center located in Germantown. The Scripps MD Anderson Cancer Centre based in La Jolla is also participating amongst a few other sites."

Answered by AI

To what extent is participation in this trial widespread?

"This clinical trial is looking to bring on board 185 participants who meet the particular criteria for inclusion. Those interested in taking part can reach out to University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center within Houston, or West Cancer Center near Germantown, Tennessee."
