BHB810 in advanced gastric and GEJ cancer (early-phase)
Official title: Phase 1/2, Open-Label, Multicenter, Dose Escalation and Expansion Study of BHB810 in Participants With Advanced Gastric and Gastroesophageal Junction Adenocarcinoma
Run by BigHat Biosciences, Inc. · NCT07529808 · Data updated 2026-11-12
This study tests whether BHB810 can be safely given every two weeks to adults with advanced gastric or GEJ adenocarcinoma and looks at its effect, how the drug behaves in the body, and patient responses.

Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Adults (≥18) with histologically confirmed advanced gastric or GEJ adenocarcinoma that progressed after or lacks standard therapy, and whose tumors express CDH17 (for certain cohorts).
✕Probably not a fit
Patients without CDH17 expression (where required) or those whose disease does not respond may not benefit.
A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.
What this trial studies
This is a Phase 1/2 interventional study evaluating BHB810 in adults with advanced gastric or gastroesophageal adenocarcinoma. Participants receive intravenous BHB810 every 14 days to assess safety, dosing, pharmacokinetics, and preliminary efficacy. Phase 1 backfill cohorts and Phase 2 require CDH17 positivity by central testing, with additional biopsy requirements for tumor tissue. Eligible participants have progressed on or lack standard therapies and must have measurable disease by RECIST 1.1. Exclusion criteria include prior cancer treatments defined in the protocol as incompatible with enrollment.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, participants may experience tumor control or symptom relief and researchers will learn how to optimize dosing for this drug.
How similar studies have gone: Prior antibody-drug conjugates in gastric/GEJ cancers have shown signals of activity in early studies, but this approach remains investigational and results are not yet established.

Inclusion Criteria: * Participant must be ≥ 18 years or the legal age of consent in the jurisdiction in which the study is taking place at the time of signing the ICF. * Histologically confirmed advanced gastric or gastroesophageal junction (GEJ) adenocarcinoma that has progressed on, was nonresponsive to, or for which no standard or available curative therapy exists. * Participants in Phase 1 Backfill Cohorts \& Phase 2 must be CDH17-positive by central testing. * Other gastrointestinal (GI) tumor types may be enrolled in Backfill Cohorts and Phase 2. * At least 1 measurable target lesion at baseline per RECIST 1.1 (Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors) * Provision of FFPE archival tumor tissue. Additional fresh biopsies at screening are required in Phase 1 Backfill Cohorts and Phase 2. * Adequate organ and marrow function as defined in the protocol Exclusion Criteria: * Prior cancer treatment as follows, relative to the first planned dose of trial intervention: * Chemotherapy or targeted therapy withing 4 weeks or 5-halflives (whichever is shorter) * Monoclonal antibody-based therapy (including ADCs) within 4 weeks * Immune checkpoint inhibitors within 4 weeks * Wide-field radiation therapy (\>30% marrow-bearing bones) within 4 weeks or \< 2 weeks of focal palliative radiation to nontarget lesions * Prior treatment with a CDH17-directed therapy or an ADC with an auristatin (MMAE or MMAF) * Known hypersensitivity or allergic reaction to BHB810 or it's excipients * Left ventricular ejection fraction \<50% or history of congestive heart failure Class III/IV * QTc interval \> 470 msec, history of risk factors for Torsade de Pointes, or taking a medication known to prolong QT/QTc * Pregnant or breastfeeding females, or if you or your partner are planning to become pregnant * Known or suspected brain metastases, leptomeningeal disease, or spinal cord compression. Participants with stable, treated brain metastases may be enrolled. * Current treatment with a strong CYP3A4 inhibitor or inducer, Pgp inhibitor, or CYP3A4 sensitive substrate within 2 weeks of first dose of trial intervention * Any condition that may compromise participant safety, compliance, or interfere with the evaluation of the study drug.
