The primary study objective of this Phase 1 trial was to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of VB6-845 and evaluate the safety and tolerability of VB6-845 when administered as a monotherapy intravenous (IV) infusion (over 3 hours), once weekly in 4-week cycles, to subjects with EpCAM positive advanced solid tumours of epithelial origin.~Secondary objectives included evaluating the pharmacokinetic profile and immunogenicity of VB6-845 and assessing exploratory efficacy of VB6-845.~Dose cohorts of 3-6 subjects with EpCAM positive advanced solid tumours of epithelial origin are to be entered into the study. The starting dose is defined as 1.00 mg/kg, which is 1/10 of the no observed adverse effect level (NOAEL) reached in preclinical studies. Doses are to be escalated according to the modified Fibonacci design until 2 out of 3 or 2 out of 6 subjects experienced a Dose Limiting Toxicity (DLT). The MTD is to be reached when <2 out of 6 subjects experienced a DLT. An additional 12 subjects are to be enrolled at the MTD for further characterization of VB6-845 at that level.~Regardless of dose cohort, subjects are to continue to receive treatment until an unacceptable toxicity occurred, all lesions completely disappeared or disease progression is determined.
The purpose of this study is to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of VB6-845 and to evaluate the safety and tolerability of VB6-845 when administered as a monotherapy IV infusion to patients with advanced solid tumour of epithelial origin.
