A complete physical examination (including, general appearance, skin, pulmonary, cardiovascular, gastrointestinal, external genitourinary only as medically relevant, lymphatic, neurologic and musculoskeletal systems, head/neck, extremities, eyes, ears, nose, throat, and cognitive status) was performed. Number of participants with clinical significant change from baseline in physical examination abnormalities were reported. Clinical significance was determined by the investigator.

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 1 study testing M4112 in people with Metastatic or Locally Advanced Unresectable Solid Tumors, run by EMD Serono Research & Development Institute, Inc. at 3 sites 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 8 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 6 Feb 2020. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 3 sites 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?
Yes. Results are posted in the registry (first posted 6 Feb 2020). A summary is in the For doctors view, and the full results are on ClinicalTrials.gov.
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?
Part 1A Dose Escalation: Number of Participants Who Experienced Dose Limiting Toxicities (DLTs) as Per National Cancer Institute's Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (NCI-CTCAE) Version 4.03 (time frame: Cycle 1 (Each Cycle is of 28 days)). The study lists 6 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.
Where can I read the original study information?
On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT03306420, which also lists 1 linked publication.
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 6 Feb 2020.
