Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Ideal candidates are adults aged 18 and older with advanced or metastatic solid tumors that are relapsed or refractory to standard therapies.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients with early-stage tumors or those who have not yet received standard treatment options may not benefit from this study.
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 clinical trial evaluating ABL103 in patients with advanced or metastatic solid tumors that are either unresectable or have progressed after standard treatments. The study is designed as a single-arm, open-label, multicenter trial that includes a dose-escalation phase to determine the maximum tolerated dose and a tumor-expansion phase to assess preliminary antitumor activity. Participants must have a histologically confirmed diagnosis and meet specific eligibility criteria, including performance status and recovery from previous treatments.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this study could provide a new treatment option for patients with advanced solid tumors who have no available standard care.
How similar studies have gone: Other studies involving similar dose-escalation approaches for advanced solid tumors have shown promise, but this specific treatment is novel.

Inclusion Criteria: * Subject must understand and be willing to provide informed consent and be able to comply with the study procedures and restrictions. * Subject must be ≥18 years of age on the day of signing the informed consent form (ICF) * Subject must have a histologically confirmed locally advanced unresectable, or metastatic solid tumor. * Subject must be relapsed or be refractory to available standard therapy or they must be intolerant of available standard therapy. * Subject must meet Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status 0 or 1. * Subject must have an estimated life expectancy of at least 12 weeks. * Subjects must be recovered from AEs from prior therapy to Grade 1 or the baseline grade more than 14 days prior to the first administration of the study drug, except alopecia or Grade 2 toxicities that are deemed stable or irreversible (eg, peripheral neuropathy) * Subjects must have adequate hematologic, renal, hepatic, and thyroid functions confirmed based on the screening laboratory test within 7 days prior to the first administration of ABL103. Exclusion Criteria: * Subject has received prior anticancer monoclonal antibody treatment or investigational therapy within 28 days prior to the first administration of study drug. * Subject has received prior chemotherapy or radiation therapy within 2 weeks or targeted small molecule therapy within 5 half-lives prior to the first administration of study drug. * Subject requires or has received systemic steroid therapy or any other immunosuppressive therapy within 14 days prior to study drug administration. * Subject has a history of drug-induced pneumonitis (interstitial lung disease) or currently has pneumonitis. * Subject has risk factors for bowel obstruction or bowel perforation, including, but not limited to a history of acute diverticulitis, intra-abdominal abscess, and abdominal carcinomatosis. * Subject discontinued from prior immunomodulatory therapy due to any intolerable immune-related adverse events (irAEs) requiring systemic steroid treatment. * Subject has received prior treatment with anti-B7-H4 antibody and/or anti-4-1BB antibody.
