December 17, 2014 updated by: Seagen Inc.

A Phase I, Multi-Dose Study of SGN-40 (Anti-huCD40 mAb) in Patients With Refractory or Recurrent Multiple Myeloma

The purpose of this study is to determine the safety and activity of SGN-40 in a weekly dosage schedule as a single agent.

Detailed Description

This is an open-label, multi-dose, single-arm, phase I, dose-escalation study to define the toxicity profile, maximum tolerated dose (MTD), pharmacokinetics, and antitumor activity of SGN-40 in patients with refractory or recurrent multiple myeloma.

A minimum of three patients will be entered into each dose-level cohort. All patients will receive a dose-loading schedule during the first two weeks. The maximum weekly dose will be 16mg/kg.
