Study to Evaluate Safety & Tolerability of AGI-134 in Solid Tumour

A Phase I/IIA, Multicentre, Two Parts, Open-Label Study Designed to Evaluate the Safety and Tolerability of Escalating Doses of AGI-134 in Unresectable/Metastatic Solid Tumours

This study will evaluate if AGI-134 given alone is safe and tolerate in treating patients with unresectable/metastatic solid tumours.

Study Overview

• Status: Completed
• Conditions: Superficial, Palpable, Unresectable/Metastatic Solid Tumour
• Intervention / Treatment: Drug: AGI-134

Detailed Description

Unresectable solid tumour is a tumour that cannot be removed completely through surgery, radiation therapy, drug treatment or any combination of them.

AGI-134 (alpha-Gal) is a synthetic molecule that by intratumoural injection trigger a systemic anti-tumour response.

This study will evaluate the safety, tolerability and efficacy of AGI-134 given alone in treating patients with unresectable metastatic solid tumours.

This study is divided to 2 parts:

Part 1 will assess on a small group of subjects the safety and tolerability of increasing doses of AGI-134 injected intra-tumourally (IT) and will determine the maximum AGI-134 dose that can be tolerated.

Part 2 will assess the safety, tolerability and clinical effect of the dose selected in part 1 in a group of subjects who will receive AGI-134 alone injected intra-tumourally.
