Is this trial a fit for you?

Likely a good fit

Adults with locally advanced unresectable or metastatic solid tumors lacking standard therapy options, with measurable disease and good performance status.

Probably not a fit

Patients whose tumors do not respond to NEOK001 or who experience intolerable toxicity 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 first-in-human, Phase 1 trial with dose-escalation and expansion parts to evaluate NEOK001, a bispecific B7-H3 x ROR1 exatecan antibody-drug conjugate, in select solid tumors. The study is open-label, multicenter, and will administer NEOK001 intravenously in cycles with multiple-dose regimens. Participants must have measurable disease, ECOG 0-1, and adequate organ function, with tumor tissue available for analysis. Key exclusions include prior ADCs with topoisomerase I payloads and active CNS disease or interstitial lung disease requiring steroids. The trial aims to identify a recommended dose and characterize safety, pharmacokinetics, and preliminary anti-tumor activity.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, participants could experience tumor control or stabilization and gain information that may lead to future treatment options.

How similar studies have gone: Early-stage studies of similar bispecific antibody-drug conjugates have shown potential signals of activity in solid tumors, though results are initial and require confirmation.

Show full inclusion / exclusion criteria
Key Inclusion Criteria:

* Participants must have locally advanced or metastatic disease in a select tumor type, for which no standard therapy is available.
* Participants must have at least 1 measurable target lesion based on RECIST v1.1.
* Participants must have Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0 or 1.
* Participants must have adequate hematologic, hepatic, and renal function.
* Participants should have available archived tumor tissue from their most recent biopsy.

Key Exclusion Criteria:

* Participant's most recent systemic anti-cancer treatment was an ADC with a topoisomerase 1-inhibitor payload component.
* Participants with known symptomatic central nervous system (CNS) metastases or any evidence of leptomeningeal disease or evidence of unstable CNS metastases, even if asymptomatic.
* Participants with a known history of interstitial lung disease (ILD) requiring steroid treatment, or for whom suspected ILD cannot be ruled out by imaging at screening.
* Participants with clinically severe pulmonary compromise due to intercurrent pulmonary illness and/or pulmonary disorder requiring supplemental oxygen or any prior pneumonectomy.
* Participants with a QT interval corrected for heart rate using Fridericia's formula (QTcF) ≥ 470 msec.
