Tusamitamab Ravtansine

Clinical trials are studying Tusamitamab Ravtansine in people with NSQ NSCLC, a type of non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer. The trial is looking at safety, the right dose, and how well the treatment works when combined with pembrolizumab and platinum-based chemotherapy, with or without pemetrexed.

Trial overview

The study titled CARMEN-LC05 investigated Tusamitamab Ravtansine in people with NSQ NSCLC, which means non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer.[1] It was an interventional trial, so participants received study treatments and researchers watched the results.[1]

This was a Phase 2 trial, which usually means the researchers were checking early signs of benefit while also continuing safety testing in a defined patient group.[1]

Study design and treatment groups

The safety run-in part studied Tusamitamab Ravtansine with pembrolizumab, and another combination of Tusamitamab Ravtansine with pembrolizumab plus platinum-based chemotherapy with or without pemetrexed.[1] The source says the safety run-in was used to assess tolerability and to find the recommended doses for the later expansion part.[1]

The expansion part was planned to assess antitumor activity, which means how well the treatment may work against the cancer, at several dose levels if needed.[1] The study also included participants treated at the recommended dose for expansion from the safety run-in part.[1]

Who participated

The trial was designed for people with NSQ NSCLC.[1] The source data does not list more detailed entry rules, such as age limits or previous treatments.[1]

In total, the study enrolled 14 participants.[1]

What was measured

The main safety outcome was the incidence of dose-limiting toxicity during Cycle 1, from C1D1 to C1D21.[1] Dose-limiting toxicity means a side effect serious enough to affect how much treatment can be given.[1]

For the expansion part, the main effectiveness outcome was objective response rate, or ORR.[1] ORR shows how many participants had a measurable shrinkage of their cancer during the study.[1]

Trial status and size

The trial status is listed as Completed.[1] This means the study has finished collecting the planned data in the source record.[1]

The enrollment was small, with 14 participants, so this study was mainly an early research step rather than a large confirmatory trial.[1]

Glossary

  • NSQ NSCLC: A type of lung cancer called non-squamous non-small cell lung cancer. 'Non-squamous' describes the cancer cell type.
  • Phase 2: A trial stage that looks at early signs of benefit and continues safety testing in a specific group of patients.
  • Interventional study: A study where participants receive one or more treatments so researchers can see what happens.
  • Pembrolizumab: A treatment used in this trial as part of the study combinations.
  • Platinum-based chemotherapy: A group of cancer treatments that includes cisplatin and carboplatin in this trial.
  • Pemetrexed: A cancer drug used in one of the study combinations.
  • Dose-limiting toxicity: A side effect serious enough to limit how much of a study treatment can be given.
  • Objective response rate: The share of patients whose tumors shrink or disappear during the study.
  • Safety run-in: The first part of a study used to check tolerability and choose doses before the larger study part.
  • Recommended dose for expansion: The dose selected in the early part of the study to test further in more patients.
