Phase 1/2a Study of MPB-1734 in Patients With Advanced Solid Tumors

October 30, 2025 updated by: MegaPro Biomedical Co. Ltd.

Phase 1/2a Dose-ranging, Safety, Pharmacokinetics, and Preliminary Efficacy Study of MPB-1734 in Patients With Advanced Solid Tumors in Part 1 and With Selected Solid Tumors in Part 2

This is a first-in-human (FIH), multicenter, open-label, uncontrolled, Phase 1/2a study with dose escalation in patients with advanced solid tumors (Part 1) and cohorts of up to 15 patients per selected indication (Part 2). The solid tumor types in Part 2 will be decided by the sponsor prior to the start of Part 2, but not be solely based on the efficacy results in Part 1.

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.
Recruiting

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Detailed Description

This study will occur in two parts, Dose-escalation (Part 1) and Cohort-expansion (Part 2). The main purpose of Part 1 is to determine the doses and dosing schedule of MPB-1734 that is safe and tolerable when given in subjects with certain types of advanced cancer. Part 2 of the study will begin when the Sponsor determines the safe and tolerable doses and dosing schedule from Part 1. The main purpose of Part 2 is to continue to assess the safety and tolerability of the MPB-1734 dose and dosing schedule determined by the Sponsor during Part 1. The preliminary efficacy of MPB-1734 will also be assessed in both Part 1 and Part 2.

Phase

Phase

The stage of a clinical trial studying a drug or biological product, based on definitions developed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The phase is based on the study's objective, the number of participants, and other characteristics. There are five phases: Early Phase 1 (formerly listed as Phase 0), Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3, and Phase 4. Not Applicable is used to describe trials without FDA-defined phases, including trials of devices or behavioral interventions.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years and older (Adult, Older Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Evaluation the the maximum tolerated dose(MTD) by safety data
Time Frame: Through the end of the first cycle (Days 1-21).
Number and incidence of (serious) adverse events (AEs) ([S]AEs), including rate of mild, moderate, and severe hypersensitivity reactions, fluid retention, and sensory neuropathy an adverse event or abnormal laboratory value assessed as unrelated to disease, disease progression, inter-current illness, or concomitant medications that occurs within the first treatment cycle.
Through the end of the first cycle (Days 1-21).

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.

Incidence of Treatment-Emergence Adverse Events
Time Frame: Approximately 24 weeks
Each adverse event will be coded using the Medical Dictionary (version 20.0) system. The severity of the toxicities will be graded according to the National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (version 4.0).
