About this study

Official title: A Phase I, First in Human Study of CBA-1205, Anti-DLK1 Monoclonal Antibody in Patients With Advanced Solid Tumors.

In this first-in-human, muticenter, non-randomized, open-label, standard 3+3 dose escalation Phase I study encompasses 5 parts (Part 1-5). The purpose of this FIH study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability profile of CBA-1205.

Read the detailed description

To evaluate safety and efficacy of CBA-1205 in the following five parts in a stepwise manner:

Part 1

  • In Part 1, safety and tolerability in patients with Solid Tumor where no standard treatment is available, or who are intolerable or non-responder to the standard treatment will be evaluated. Initial dose for Part 2 will be determined.

Part 2

  • In Part 2, safety and tolerability in patients with advanced and/or recurrent Hepatocellular Carcinoma which are unresectable, or who are intolerable or non-responder to the standard treatment will be evaluated. Recommended dose in this population will be determined.

Part 3

  • In Part 3, safety and efficacy at the recommended dose in patients with advanced and/or recurrent Hepatocellular Carcinoma which are unresectable, or who are intolerable or non-responder to the standard treatment will be evaluated.

Part 4

  • In Part 4, safety and efficacy in patients with Malignant Melanoma who are refractory or intolerant to standard therapy.

Part 5

  • In Part 5, safety, tolerability and the recommended dose of the study drug in patients with Pediatric Cancer where no standard treatment is available, or who are intolerable or non-responder to the standard treatment will be evaluated.

What is being measured

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

  1. Dose limiting toxicity

    DLTs are assessed according to CTCAE v.5.0 during the first cycle (28 days).

    Measured: Part 1, 2 and 5 - Dose limiting toxicity : For 28 days after the first dose of study treatment

  2. Adverse Event

    An adverse event is any untoward or unintended sign, symptom, or disease in a subject administered an investigational product, whether or not it is related to the investigational product

    Measured: Adverse event : Maximum 12 months

Secondary outcomes (3)
  1. Serum CBA-1205 concentration

    Blood samples are collected to assess the serum concentration of CBA-1205.

    Measured: From Day 1 to Day 43 (or until Discontiuation of treatment)

  2. Immunogenicity

    Blood samples are collected to assess the serum anti-CBA-1205 antibody.

    Measured: From Day1 to Day 43 (or until Discontiuation of treatment)

  3. Efficacy

    Antitumor response evaluated in accordance with the Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) v1.1

    Tumor markers

    Measured: Screening, Day 1 of Cycle 2 and 3, and Day 1 of even-numbered cycles from Cycle 4 onward until treatment discontinuation. Maximum 12 months

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing CBA-1205 Part 1, CBA-1205 Part 2 and CBA-1205 Part 3 in people with Solid Tumors and Hepatocellular Carcinoma (HCC), run by Chiome Bioscience Inc. at 5 sites in Japan.

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 12 inclusion and 7 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 17 Jun 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 5 sites in Japan. 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?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

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

Contact Tanaka Miseri Chiome Bioscience Inc. (+81-3-6383-3561, ir@chiome.co.jp), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Dose limiting toxicity (time frame: Part 1, 2 and 5 - Dose limiting toxicity : For 28 days after the first dose of study treatment). The study lists 2 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 NCT06636435, which also lists 2 linked publications.

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 Jun 2026.
