Clinical Trial of HuMax-CD4, a New Drug to Treat Advanced Stage T-Cell Lymphoma in the Skin.

April 26, 2023 updated by: Genmab

An Open-Label Therapeutic Exploratory Clinical Trial of HuMax-CD4, a Fully Human Monoclonal Anti-CD4 Antibody, in Patients With Advanced Stage (IIA-IVB) Cutaneous T-cell Lymphoma

The purpose of this trial is to determine the effect of HuMax-CD4, as a treatment for advanced stage (late stage) cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL). Almost all participants who are affected by late stage CTCL have many cancerous cells which bear a receptor called CD4. HuMax-CD4 is an investigational drug directed against this receptor. There is no placebo in this trial; all participants will be treated with HuMax-CD4. The response rates, duration of responses, relief of symptoms, and safety profile of HuMax-CD4 will be evaluated during this trial.
