About this study
Official title: A Phase 1 Study of JNJ-70218902, a T Cell Redirecting Agent, in Advanced Stage Solid Tumors
The purpose of this study is to determine the recommended Phase 2 dose(s) (RP2D[s]) and maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of JNJ-70218902 in Part 1, and to determine the safety of JNJ-70218902 RP2D(s) in Part 2.
Read the detailed description
JNJ-70218902, the investigational drug, has been shown in pre-clinical studies to work by attaching to cancer cells and activating immune cells to kill these cancer cells. This study will be conducted in 2 parts: dose escalation (Part 1) and dose expansion (Part 2) and will enroll adult men with Metastatic Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer (MCRPC). Study evaluations will include preliminary clinical efficacy, safety, pharmacokinetics, biomarkers and immunogenicity evaluations. This study is divided into 3 periods: screening, treatment and post-treatment. The total duration of the study will be 2.5 years approximately.

| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| Part 1: Dose Escalation | Experimental | Participants with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) will receive JNJ-70218902. The dose levels will be escalated sequentially based on the decisions of the Study Evaluation Team (SET) until the recommended Phase 2 Dose (RP2D) has been identified. Receives: Drug: JNJ-70218902 |

What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Part 1 and Part 2: Number of Participants with Adverse Events (AEs) as a Measure of Safety and Tolerability
An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a participant participating in a clinical study that does not necessarily have a causal relationship with the pharmaceutical/biological agent under study.
Measured: Up to 2.5 years
Part 1: Number of Participants with Dose-Limiting Toxicity (DLT)
Number of participants with DLT will be assessed. The DLTs are specific adverse events and are defined as any of the following: high grade non-hematologic toxicity, or hematologic toxicity.
Measured: Up to 21 days
Part 1 and Part 2: Number of Participants with AEs by Severity
Severity will be graded according to the National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (NCI CTCAE) version 5.0 with the exception of cytokine release syndrome (CRS), which will be graded according to the American Society for Transplantation and Cellular Therapy (ASTCT) guidelines. Severity scale ranges from Grade 1 (Mild) to Grade 5 (Death). Grade 1= Mild, Grade 2= Moderate, Grade 3= Severe, Grade 4= Life-threatening and Grade 5= Death related to adverse event.
Measured: Up to 2.5 years
Secondary outcomes (11)

Measured: Up to 2.5 years
Time to Reach Maximum Observed Serum Concentration (Tmax) of JNJ-70218902
Tmax is defined as time to reach maximum observed serum concentration.
Measured: Up to 2.5 years
Area Under the Serum Concentration-time Curve From t1 to t2 Time (AUC[t1-t2]) of JNJ-70218902

Measured: Up to 2.5 years
Area Under the Concentration-time Curve From Time Zero to End of Dosing Interval (AUCtau) of JNJ-70218902
AUCtau is the measure of the serum drug concentration from time zero to end of dosing interval.
Measured: Up to 2.5 years
Minimum Observed Serum Concentration (Cmin) of JNJ-70218902
Cmin is the minimum observed serum concentration of JNJ-70218902.
Measured: Up to 2.5 years
Accumulation Ratio (RA) of JNJ-70218902
Accumulation Ratio (RA) is calculated as area under the plasma concentration-time curve from time zero to 24 hours (AUC [0-24]) value at steady state divided by AUC (0-24) value after first dose.
Measured: Up to 2.5 years

Measured: Up to 2.5 years
Duration of Response (DOR)
Duration of response (DOR) will be calculated from the date of initial documentation of a response (PR or better) to the date of first documented evidence of progressive disease, as defined in the PCWG3 or RECIST version 1.1 response criteria, or death due to any cause, whichever occurs first.
Measured: Up to 2.5 years

Questions about this trial
What is this clinical trial studying?
A Phase 1 study testing JNJ-70218902 in people with Neoplasms, run by Janssen Research & Development, LLC at 7 sites in 3 countries.
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 6 inclusion and 6 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: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 17 Feb 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.
Where is the study taking place?
The record lists 7 sites in Spain, Canada, Israel. 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 is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.
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 1 and Part 2: Number of Participants with Adverse Events (AEs) as a Measure of Safety and Tolerability (time frame: Up to 2.5 years). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. 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 Feb 2026.
