August 7, 2018 updated by: argenx

A Pilot, Phase Ib Feasibility Study of ARGX-110 in Patients With Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma (NPC)

To characterize the safety profile of ARGX-110 administered as mono- or combination therapy to patients with NPC at various stages of its natural history (adjuvant vs. metastatic).

Description

Inclusion criteria:

  • Age ≥18 years.
  • Written informed consent prior to any study-related procedure
  • Willing and able to comply with protocol-specified procedures and scheduled evaluations
  • Pathological diagnosis of nasopharyngeal carcinoma (NPC)
  • Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) Performance Status of 0, 1or 2
  • Absolute neutrophil count (ANC) > 0.5 x 109/L
  • Haemoglobin > 80 g/L
  • Platelet count ≥ 50 x 109/L
  • Total bilirubin ≤ 2 x the upper limit of normal (ULN)
  • Alanine transaminase (ALT) ≤ 5 x ULN
  • Serum creatinine ≤ 2 x ULN

Exclusion criteria:

  • History or clinical evidence of neoplastic central nervous system (CNS) involvement. Note: Irradiated brain metastases that have been stable for > 1 month and do not require systemic glucocorticoid administration are allowed
  • Major surgery within 4 weeks of ARGX-110 first dose administration
  • Unresolved grade 3 or 4 toxicity from prior therapy (except mucositis from local radiation therapy).
  • Active, untreated viral, bacterial, or systemic fungal infection
  • Childbearing potential unless using an adequate measure of contraception
  • Pregnancy or lactation. History of hypersensitivity to recombinant proteins
  • Any clinical finding, including psychiatric and behavioural problems, which, in the opinion of the Investigator, precludes the patient from safely participating in the study

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: adjuvant monotherapy
ARGX-110 5mg/kg once every three weeks for a maximum of 18 cycles
Experimental: metastatic/recurrent monotherapy
ARGX-110 5mg/kg once every three weeks until disease progression
