About this study

Official title: Phase Ib/II, Open-Label Study of EMB-01 in Patients With Advanced/Metastatic Gastrointestinal Cancers

This study is to evaluate the safety and antitumor activity of EMB-01 in advanced/metastatic gastrointestinal cancers, including gastric cancer, hepatocellular cancer, cholangiocarcinoma and colorectal cancer.

Read the detailed description

This is an open-label, Phase Ib/II, multi-stage study of EMB-01 in patients with advanced gastrointestinal tumors including gastric cancer, hepatocellular cancer, cholangiocarcinoma cancer and colorectal cancer, who have EGFR/cMET gene alterations or protein over expression and progressed on available standard therapies and for whom no standard therapy exists that would confer clinical benefit. All patients will be prescreened for cMET and EGFR genetic alterations and protein expression. Only those who met the molecular pre-screening criteria will proceed to clinical screening to determine the eligibility. The study will consist of Phase Ib part and Phase II part, both phases will consist of a molecular prescreening period, screening period, treatment period, safety follow-up period, and disease progression follow-up.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing EMB-01 in people with Neoplasms and Neoplasm Metastasis, run by Shanghai EpimAb Biotherapeutics Co., Ltd. at 14 sites in 2 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 19 inclusion and 11 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: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 26 Aug 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 14 sites in China, 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 combined 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.

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

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

Contact Rong Wang, M.Sc (+86-21-61043299, CT.info@epimab.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Number of participants with Adverse Events and Serious Adverse Events as assessed by CTCAE v5.0 (time frame: Phase 1b, screening up to follow-up (30 days after the last dose)). The study lists 16 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 26 Aug 2024.
