Treatment with AZD0901 for advanced solid tumors expressing Claudin18.2

A Phase II, Open-label, Multi-centre Study to Evaluate Safety, Tolerability, Efficacy, PK, and Immunogenicity of AZD0901 as Monotherapy and in Combination With Anti-cancer Agents in Participants With Advanced Solid Tumours Expressing Claudin 18.2 (CLARITY-PanTumour01)

Phase 2 Interventional AstraZeneca · NCT06219941

This study is testing a new treatment called AZD0901 for people with advanced solid tumors that have a specific protein, to see if it works better alone or with other chemotherapy drugs.

What this trial studies

This clinical trial evaluates the safety, tolerability, and efficacy of AZD0901, both as a standalone treatment and in combination with other chemotherapy agents, for patients with advanced solid tumors that express the protein Claudin18.2. The study includes multiple sub-studies focusing on different types of cancers, including gastric, gastroesophageal junction, biliary tract, and pancreatic cancers. Participants will receive AZD0901 via intravenous infusion, and the study will assess various outcomes including pharmacokinetics and immunogenicity.

Who should consider this trial

Good fit: Ideal candidates are adults aged 18 and older with advanced solid tumors expressing Claudin18.2 and a life expectancy of at least 12 weeks.

Not a fit: Patients with tumors that do not express Claudin18.2 or those with significant comorbidities 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 cancers expressing Claudin18.2.

How similar studies have performed: Other studies targeting Claudin18.2 have shown promise, indicating potential for success with this approach.
