February 12, 2026 updated by: Janssen Research & Development, LLC

A Phase 1 Study of JNJ-70218902, a T Cell Redirecting Agent, in Advanced Stage Solid Tumors

The purpose of this study is to determine the recommended Phase 2 dose(s) (RP2D[s]) and maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of JNJ-70218902 in Part 1, and to determine the safety of JNJ-70218902 RP2D(s) in Part 2.

Detailed Description

JNJ-70218902, the investigational drug, has been shown in pre-clinical studies to work by attaching to cancer cells and activating immune cells to kill these cancer cells. This study will be conducted in 2 parts: dose escalation (Part 1) and dose expansion (Part 2) and will enroll adult men with Metastatic Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer (MCRPC). Study evaluations will include preliminary clinical efficacy, safety, pharmacokinetics, biomarkers and immunogenicity evaluations. This study is divided into 3 periods: screening, treatment and post-treatment. The total duration of the study will be 2.5 years approximately.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: Part 1: Dose Escalation
Participants with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) will receive JNJ-70218902. The dose levels will be escalated sequentially based on the decisions of the Study Evaluation Team (SET) until the recommended Phase 2 Dose (RP2D) has been identified.
JNJ-70218902 will be administered.
Experimental: Part 2: Dose Expansion
Participants with mCRPC will receive JNJ-70218902 at the RP2D determined in Part 1.
JNJ-70218902 will be administered.

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Part 1 and Part 2: Number of Participants with Adverse Events (AEs) as a Measure of Safety and Tolerability
Time Frame: Up to 2.5 years
An AE is any untoward medical occurrence in a participant participating in a clinical study that does not necessarily have a causal relationship with the pharmaceutical/biological agent under study.
Up to 2.5 years
Part 1: Number of Participants with Dose-Limiting Toxicity (DLT)
Time Frame: Up to 21 days
Number of participants with DLT will be assessed. The DLTs are specific adverse events and are defined as any of the following: high grade non-hematologic toxicity, or hematologic toxicity.
Up to 21 days
Part 1 and Part 2: Number of Participants with AEs by Severity
Time Frame: Up to 2.5 years
Severity will be graded according to the National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (NCI CTCAE) version 5.0 with the exception of cytokine release syndrome (CRS), which will be graded according to the American Society for Transplantation and Cellular Therapy (ASTCT) guidelines. Severity scale ranges from Grade 1 (Mild) to Grade 5 (Death). Grade 1= Mild, Grade 2= Moderate, Grade 3= Severe, Grade 4= Life-threatening and Grade 5= Death related to adverse event.
Up to 2.5 years

Up to 2.5 years
Accumulation Ratio (RA) of JNJ-70218902
Time Frame: Up to 2.5 years
Accumulation Ratio (RA) is calculated as area under the plasma concentration-time curve from time zero to 24 hours (AUC [0-24]) value at steady state divided by AUC (0-24) value after first dose.
Up to 2.5 years
Systemic Cytokine Concentrations
Time Frame: Up to 2.5 years
Cytokines concentration will be measured for biomarker assessment.

Time Frame: Up to 2.5 years
ORR is defined as the percentage of participants who have a Partial Response (PR) or better according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) version 1.1 without evidence of bone progression according to Prostate Cancer Working Group 3 (PCWG3).
Up to 2.5 years
Duration of Response (DOR)
Time Frame: Up to 2.5 years
Duration of response (DOR) will be calculated from the date of initial documentation of a response (PR or better) to the date of first documented evidence of progressive disease, as defined in the PCWG3 or RECIST version 1.1 response criteria, or death due to any cause, whichever occurs first.
Up to 2.5 years
