About this study

Official title: A Phase 1a/1b, Open-Label, Dose Escalation and Expansion Study to Evaluate the Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics, Pharmacodynamics and Preliminary Efficacy of GNTbm 38 in Solid Tumors and Relapsed/Refractory Peripheral T-Cell Lymphoma.

This is a Phase 1a/1b, open-label, dose escalation and expansion study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, PK, pharmacodynamics, and preliminary efficacy of GNTbm-38 in adult patients with advanced solid tumors and R/R PTCL.

Read the detailed description

This study aims to investigate the maximum tolerated dose, safety, pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics, and preliminary efficacy of GNTbm-38. Phase 1a is the dose escalation phase to firstly determine the MTD of patients with solid tumor. Once MTD for solid tumor patients has been established, the next lower dose of this MTD will serve as an initial dose to determine the MTD for patients with R/R PTCL. Phase 1b is the dose expansion phase in which optimal design is utilized to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of GNTbm-38 in R/R PTCL patients.

Study groupRoleWhat they receive
To evaluate the MTD and the safety of GNTbm-38 in solid tumor and R/R PTCLExperimentalPatients will be given GNTbm-38 capsules administered orally once a day with the following dose levels (if applicable): 2.5, 5, 7.5, 10, 12.5, 15, 20, 25 and 30 mg.
Receives: Drug: GNTbm-38

What is being measured

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

  1. Phase 1a: The MTD and DLT of GNTbm-38

    The primary endpoint of the Phase 1a portion of the study was the incidence and severity of dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs) of GNTbm-38 administered orally once daily during the first cycle of evaluation (each cycle is 28 days).

    The efficacy assessments will be define by RECIST v1.1.

    Measured: At the end of Cycle 1 (each cycle is 28 days)

  2. Phase Ia: To define the safety and tolerability

    To evaluate the efficacy of GNTbm-38 via analysis of anti-tumor activity in adult patients with Relapsed or refractory peripheral T-cell lymphoma (R/R PTCL).

    The efficacy assessments will be define by 2014 Lugano classification.

    Measured: At the end of Cycle 1 (each cycle is 28 days)

  3. Phase Ib: To evaluate the efficacy of GNTbm-38 in patients with R/R PTCL.

    Phase 1b dose expansion cohort will be initiated following the MTD from Phase Ia to further evaluate the safety and preliminary efficacy of GNTbm-38 in patients with R/R PTCL, response will be defined by the Lugano criteria.

    Measured: At the end of Cycle 1 (each cycle is 28 days)

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. Maximum plasma concentration (Cmax)

    To characterize the PK of GNTbm-38

    Measured: At the end of Cycle 1 (each cycle is 28 days)

  2. Time to reach maximum concentration (Tmax)

    To characterize the PK of GNTbm-38

    Measured: At the end of cycle 1 (each cycle is 28 days)

  3. Area under the plasma concentration-time curve (AUC)

    To characterize the PK of GNTbm-38

    Measured: At the end of Cycle 1 (each cycle is 28 days)

  4. Trough concentration (Ctrough)

    To characterize the PK of GNTbm-38

    Measured: From Cycle 1 Day 1 (each cycle is 28 days) until End of Treatment

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing GNTbm-38 in people with Solid Tumor (Phase I) and Relapsed or Refractory Peripheral T-cell Lymphoma (PTCL), run by Great Novel Therapeutics Biotech & Medicals Corporation.

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 27 inclusion and 18 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: opening soon, as of the sponsor's last update on 25 Sep 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

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 Chen Jia-Shiong, Vice President (+886-2-27851399 ext. 301, jschen@gntbm.com.tw), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Phase 1a: The MTD and DLT of GNTbm-38 (time frame: At the end of Cycle 1 (each cycle is 28 days)). 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 25 Sep 2026.
