Is this trial a fit for you?

Likely a good fit

Ideal candidates include adults aged 18 and older with unresectable or metastatic gastric, gastroesophageal junction, biliary tract, or pancreatic cancers.

Probably not a fit

Patients with resectable tumors or those who have not previously been treated for advanced disease 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 clinical trial evaluates the safety and effectiveness of Spevatamig (PT886) as a monotherapy and in combination with chemotherapy and immune checkpoint inhibitors for patients with advanced gastric, gastroesophageal junction, pancreatic ductal, or biliary tract cancers. It is a first-in-human, Phase 1/2, open-label study that includes dose escalation and expansion phases. Eligible patients will have unresectable or metastatic tumors and will be treated based on their specific cancer type and previous treatments.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this treatment could provide a new therapeutic option for patients with advanced cancers that currently have limited treatment options.

How similar studies have gone: Other studies have shown promise with similar approaches, but this specific combination and treatment regimen is novel.

   Part C, substudy C6 and C7: Patients with CRC who are considered 3L, and eligible to receive bevacizumab treatment, with no contraindication to bevacizumab

   Part D, substudy D2: patients with m/a BTC with adenocarcinoma histology only, who are treatment naïve for their m/a disease and are eligible for treatment with SOC chemotherapy and ICI.

   Part D, substudy D3: patients with 2L or 3L m/a GC/GEJ-C will receive Spevatamig (PT886) in combination with KEYTRUDA® (pembrolizumab).

   Part D, substudy D4: patients with 1L HER2 negative m/a GC/GEJ-C will receive Spevatamig (PT886) in combination with SOC chemotherapy and KEYTRUDA® (pembrolizumab).
4. Able to provide a formalin fixed, paraffin embedded (FFPE) tumor tissue sample (preferably fresh biopsy or if not possible, archival tissue) to be assessed for CLDN18.2 expression and other biomarkers.
5. ECOG performance status of 0 or 1.
6. Adequate organ function confirmed at screening and within 72 hours of initiating treatment.

Key Exclusion Criteria

1. Women who are pregnant or lactating.
2. Women of child-bearing potential (WOCBP) who do not use adequate birth control.
3. Has an active autoimmune disease that has required systemic treatment in the past 2 years.
4. Prior CLDN18.2 or CD47 targeting therapies, or SIRPα (signal regulatory protein alpha) targeting agents.
