About this trial

This trial is a first in human (FIH) clinical trial in patients with Colorectal cancer (CRC) after failure of at least three lines of previous therapy aiming to evaluate safety and efficacy of CC-3, a bispecific antibody (bsAb) with CD276xCD3 specificity developed within DKTK. CC-3 binds to CD276 on cancer cells as well as to tumor vessels of CRC, thereby allowing for a dual mode of anti-cancer action. CC-3 was developed in a novel format which not only prolongs serum half-life, but most importantly reduces off-target T cell activation with expected fewer side effects. A similar construct in this format with PSMAxCD3 specificity is presently undergoing clinical evaluation in patients with prostate cancer (NCT04104607), with very favorable safety and preliminary efficacy. The optimized format that CC-3 shares with its PSMAxCD3 "sister molecule" allows for application of effective bsAb doses with expected high anticancer activity. The clinical trial comprises two phases: The first phase is a dose-escalation part to evaluate the maximally tolerated dose (MTD) of CC-3. This is followed by a dose-expansion part to defined the recommended phase II dose. A translational research program comprising, among others, analysis of CC-3 half-life and the induced immune response will serve to better define the mode of action of CC-3.

Eligibility criteria

Qualifiers

Patient is able to understand and comply with the protocol for the duration of the clinical trial including undergoing treatment and scheduled visits and examinations

Patients with progressing metastatic CRC who were previously treated with FOLFOX, FOLFIRI, FOLFOXIRI, TAS-102, or regorafenib, if applicable in combination with anti-VEGFR monoclonal antibody (mAb) and anti-EGFR mAb (the latter, if RAS-wild-type and left sided tumors).

At least one measurable lesion that can be accurately assessed at baseline by CT or MRI and is suitable for repeated assessment per RECIST 1.1.

Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) Performance Status ≤ 2

Disqualifiers

Other malignancy requiring treatment within the last year except: adequately treated non-melanoma skin cancer and low-grade non-muscle invasive papillary bladder cancer.

Concurrent or previous treatment within 30 days in another interventional clinical trial with an investigational anticancer therapy

Persistent toxicity (≥ Grade 2 according to Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events [CTCAE] version 5.0) caused by previous cancer therapy, excluding alopecia and neurotoxicity

Clinical signs of active infection (> grade 2 according to CTCAE version 5.0)
