Phase I

Phase 1 First in Human Study Evaluating Safety, Pharmacokinetics and Efficacy of ABBV-400 in Adult Subjects With Advanced Solid Tumors

  • Study HIC#:2000033659
  • Last Updated:08/13/2024

Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is the most common type of lung cancer and is associated with poor prognosis and limited treatment options. The purpose of this study is to assess adverse events and change in disease activity when ABBV-400 is given to adult participants to treat advanced solid tumors.

ABBV-400 is an investigational drug being developed for the treatment of advanced solid tumors. Study doctors put the participants in groups called treatment arms. The Recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) will be explored. Each treatment arm receives a different dose of ABBV-400. This study will include a dose escalation phase to determine the best dose of ABBV-400, followed by a dose expansion phase to confirm the dose. Approximately 300 adult participants with NSCLC, or advanced solid tumors, will be enrolled in the study in approximately 7-10 sites in the Dose Escalation phase and 85-95 sites in the Dose Expansion phase worldwide.

In the biomarker-selected dose expansion arms, participants in the following c-Met overexpressing advanced solid tumor indications: c-Met-intermediate/high non-squamous NSCLC with wildtype EGFR-expression (wtEGFR NSCLC) (Part 2a) or mutated EGFR-expression (mutEGFR NSCLC) (Part 2b), c-Met low non-squamous wtEGFR NSCLC (Part 2c), squamous NSCLC (Part 2d), and gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma (GEA) [Part 3] will receive intravenous (IV) ABBV-400 monotherapy, and participants without biomarker selected colorectal cancer (CRC) will receive intravenous (IV) ABBV-400 monotherapy in expansion [Part 4].

There may be higher treatment burden for participants in this trial compared to their standard of care. Participants will attend regular visits during the study at an approved institution (hospital or clinic). The effect of the treatment will be frequently checked by medical assessments, blood tests, questionnaires and side effects.

    • For Part 1 only - history of advanced solid tumor that has progressed on all standard of care therapy and are not amenable to surgical resection or other approved therapeutic options that have demonstrated clinical benefit.
    • For Part 2 only -history of advanced c-Met overexpressing (OE) non-squamous wtEGFR or mutEGFR or history of advanced c-Met OE squamous Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) that have progressed after treatment per the protocol.

      -- Should have no more than 2 lines of prior cytotoxic chemotherapy excluding adjuvant therapy and must have advanced NSCLC that is not amenable to surgical resection or other approved therapeutic options that have demonstrated clinical benefit.

    • For Part 3 only - history of advanced histopathologically or cytologically confirmed diagnosis of c-Met OE GEA that has progressed after treatment with at least 1 prior cytotoxic chemotherapeutic regimen for locally advanced or metastatic disease and have not received more than 2 prior lines of cytotoxic chemotherapy regimens. Participants must have progressed on
