Study of bemarituzumab treatment for patients with solid tumors that have high levels of FGFR2b protein
This study focuses on testing bemarituzumab, a targeted therapy that works by binding to a specific protein called FGFR2b found on certain cancer cells. The medication is given through regular intravenous infusions. This trial includes patients with endometrial adenocarcinoma among several other solid tumor types.
Who can participate: Adults aged 18 and older who have confirmed diagnoses of endometrial cancer that has returned or not responded to at least one previous treatment. The tumor must show high levels of FGFR2b protein through special laboratory testing and must be measurable using standard imaging techniques. Patients need adequate blood cell counts, liver function, kidney function, and normal blood clotting function. They should have a confirmed diagnosis through tissue examination and meet specific requirements regarding prior treatments.
Who cannot participate: Patients with a history of severe allergic reactions, active or untreated brain metastases, significant heart problems (including unstable heart disease, recent heart attack, or uncontrolled high blood pressure), active uncontrolled infections, another cancer diagnosis within the past three years, pregnancy or breastfeeding, major surgery within four weeks, participation in another clinical trial within four weeks, serious medical conditions that could interfere with participation, known HIV, active hepatitis B or C, history of organ transplantation, or current use of medications that could interact with the study drug are not eligible.
Study focus: The trial aims to test how safe bemarituzumab is and how well it works in treating solid tumors with FGFR2b overexpression. The study is divided into two parts: the first closely monitors patient responses and side effects, while the second evaluates how effective the medication is at fighting cancer. Throughout the study, doctors will track progress using medical tests and imaging scans such as CT or MRI to monitor how tumors respond to treatment. The study is expected to continue until September 2026.
Summary
Three clinical trials are currently available for patients with endometrial adenocarcinoma across Europe. Two trials are being conducted in Belgium and Spain, while one larger study is running across 15 European countries including Belgium, Spain, Austria, Bulgaria, Czechia, Denmark, Finland, France, Greece, Hungary, Italy, Netherlands, Poland, Portugal, and Romania.
The trials represent different approaches to treating advanced cancer. Two studies focus on antibody-drug conjugates (JK06 and JK08) that target specific proteins on cancer cells, while the third tests bemarituzumab, a targeted therapy for tumors with high levels of FGFR2b protein. Notably, the JK08 trial explores combination therapy using established medications like pembrolizumab and lenvatinib alongside the investigational drug.
All three trials are in early phases of research (Phase 1/2), focusing primarily on determining safety and optimal dosing before evaluating effectiveness. Patients interested in these trials should have already received at least one previous treatment, though specific requirements vary by study. The bemarituzumab study offers the widest geographic availability with locations across 15 countries, potentially providing more accessible options for European patients.
