Clinical Trials for Rectal Cancer

Phase 1/2 Dose Escalation and Expansion Study Evaluating MCLA-129, a Human Anti-EGFR and Anti-c-MET Bispecific Antibody, in Patients With Advanced NSCLC and Other Solid Tumors

Active drug

Investigational drug(s) in this trial have shown anticancer activity in clinical trials

High burden on patient

The trial has a high burden on patients. An example would be a phase 1 trial with extra tumor biopsies and frequent pharmacokinetic blood draws.

Started >3 years ago

The trial was activated more than 3 years ago. This is not always bad but can indicate that the trial has less current treatments, or has had trouble getting enough patients to enroll due to other issues.

HealthScout AI summary: Eligible patients include adults with advanced or metastatic NSCLC, HNSCC, gastric/GEJ, ESCC, or other solid tumors with defined molecular alterations, who have progressed on or are intolerant to prior therapy; both treatment-naive and previously treated patients are allowed. Patients receive MCLA-129, a bispecific EGFR/c-MET antibody, as monotherapy or in combination with osimertinib or standard chemotherapy.
