What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • MORAb028Drug

    1 mg MORAb-028 will be injected at either 1 mg/cm3 per day over 5 days for a total dose of 5 mg for the first cohort and 2 mg/cm3 for the second cohort. Subjects will receive MORAb-028 injections on Days: 1-5, 8-12 and 22-26.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Safety of multiple intralesional administration of MORAb-028

    After each patient completes study treatment the patient is evaluated for dose limiting toxicities (DLTs) up to 1 week after their last dose (at day 33)

    Measured: Day 33

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Maximum tolerated dose of intralesional administration of MORAb-028

    Measured: 22 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing MORAb028 in people with Melanoma, run by Morphotek at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 3 inclusion and 4 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: stopped early, as of the sponsor's last update on 17 Jul 2014. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study was stopped early (reason given: This study has been terminated due to lack of availability of investigational product.). Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Safety of multiple intralesional administration of MORAb-028 (time frame: Day 33). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 17 Jul 2014.
