Assessing the effects of ABBV-400 on advanced solid tumors

A Phase 1 Open-Label Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of ABBV-400 in Select Advanced Solid Tumor Indications

PHASE1 · AbbVie · NCT06084481

This study is testing a new drug called ABBV-400 to see if it can help adults with advanced solid tumors like liver, pancreatic, and triple negative breast cancer feel better and manage their disease.

What this trial studies

This study evaluates the safety and efficacy of ABBV-400, an investigational drug, in adult patients with advanced solid tumors such as hepatocellular carcinoma, pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma, and triple negative breast cancer. Participants will receive ABBV-400 as a monotherapy, followed by a safety follow-up period. The study aims to monitor adverse events and changes in disease activity using established criteria. Approximately 260 adult participants will be enrolled to assess the drug's impact on their conditions.

Who should consider this trial

Good fit: Ideal candidates include adults diagnosed with specific advanced solid tumors who meet the study's inclusion criteria.

Not a fit: Patients who have recently undergone other anticancer therapies may not benefit from this study.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this treatment could provide a new therapeutic option for patients with advanced solid tumors.

How similar studies have performed: Other studies have shown promise with similar investigational drugs, but the specific approach of ABBV-400 is novel.

Inclusion Criteria:

* Laboratory values meeting the criteria laid out in the protocol.
* Measurable disease per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) version 1.1.
* Documented diagnosis of locally advanced or metastatic hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC), biliary tract cancers (BTC), squamous cell carcinoma of the esophagus, (ESCC), triple negative breast cancer (TNBC), hormone receptor+/HER2-breast cancer (HR+/HER2-BC), head and neck squamous-cell-carcinoma (HNSCC), or Platinum Resistant High Grade Epithelial Ovarian Cancer (PROC)/primary peritoneal/fallopian tube cancer (by World Health Organization \[WHO\] criteria). Participant meets the criteria for disease activity laid out in the protocol.

Exclusion Criteria:

* Have received anticancer therapy including chemotherapy, radiation therapy, immunotherapy, biologic, or any investigational therapy within 28 days or 5 half-lives of the drug (whichever is shorter) prior to the first dose of ABBV-400. Palliative radiation therapy for bone, skin, or subcutaneous metastases with 10 fractions or less is permitted and not subject to a washout period.
* Unresolved clinically significant AEs \> Grade 1 from prior anticancer therapy.
* History of interstitial lung disease (ILD) or pneumonitis that required treatment with systemic steroids, or any evidence of active ILD or pneumonitis, including but not limited to those listed in the protocol.
* History of clinically significant, intercurrent lung-specific illnesses, including those laid out in the protocol.
* Untreated brain or meningeal metastases (i.e., participants with history of metastases are eligible provided they do not require ongoing steroid treatment for cerebral edema and have shown clinical and radiographic stability for at least 14 days after definitive therapy). Participants may continue on antiepileptic therapy if required.
* History of other active malignancy, with the exception of those laid out in the protocol.
* Any autoimmune, connective tissue or inflammatory disorders with documented or suspicious pulmonary involvement at screening (i.e., rheumatoid arthritis, Sjogren's, sarcoidosis etc.), and prior pneumonectomy.
