Study Summary

This trial will test how safe and effective GEN1042 is in treating patients with metastatic or locally advanced solid tumors.

Who is the study for?
Adults with certain advanced cancers (melanoma, NSCLC, CRC, HNSCC, PDAC) that have relapsed or are untreatable with no standard therapy available. Participants must be in good physical condition and have not had recent cancer treatments or surgeries. Those with autoimmune diseases, severe allergies to monoclonal antibodies, ongoing pneumonitis, or requiring high-dose steroids are excluded.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The trial is testing GEN1042's safety and effectiveness against tumors when used alone or combined with other cancer drugs like Paclitaxel and Pembrolizumab. It targets patients who've exhausted standard treatments for their metastatic solid tumors.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects may include allergic reactions similar to those from other antibody therapies; however specific side effects of GEN1042 will be monitored given it's a new treatment under investigation.

Trial Design

2Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Group I: Monotherapy - Dose Escalation and Dose Expansion partsExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Escalating doses of GEN1042 monotherapy in subjects with non-central nervous system (CNS) solid malignant tumors followed by monotherapy expansion cohorts at selected dose(s) in subjects with relapsed or refractory, advanced and/or metastatic melanoma, or non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC), or colorectal cancer (CRC).
Group II: Combination Therapy - Dose Expansion PartExperimental Treatment9 Interventions
GEN1042 safety and efficacy will be evaluated in combination with pembrolizumab with or without chemotherapy in treatment-naive subjects with advanced or metastatic melanoma, non-small-cell lung cancer [NSCLC], head and neck squamous cell carcinoma [HNSCC], and pancreatic cancer.

Frequently Asked Questions

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

Is participation in this trial available at present?

"Affirmative. Documents found on clinicaltrials.gov attest to the fact that this medical trial is currently searching for participants, having been first posted in September 2019 and last updated August 2021. 447 volunteers are needed from 4 different sites for enrollment."

Answered by AI

What has been the previous research involving GEN1042?

"In 1997, GEN1042 was initially explored at City of Hope Comprehensive Cancer Center. Since then, an impressive number of 3003 trials have been completed and 2439 live studies are currently being conducted across the US with many running out of Charlotte, North carolina."

Answered by AI

How many sites are actively monitoring this clinical experiment?

"This clinical trial is now running in 4 distinct locations, including Charlotte, Nashville and Philadelphia. For those interested in the study it is vital to select a site closest to you so as not to incur excessive travel costs."

Answered by AI

What is the ambition of this research project?

"This experiment, monitored until the conclusion of its safety follow-up period (2 months after last dose), seeks to uncover the Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) for GEN1042 administered alone or as part of a combined treatment.
