In plain English
This early-stage study (Phase 1/2) is testing a new drug called CRB-701 in adults with certain advanced solid tumours (cancers) that carry a protein called nectin-4. The tumours must have grown worse after all suitable standard treatments, or no standard treatment with proven benefit is available. The study is funded by Corbus Pharmaceuticals Inc.
Who can take part
- Adults with a confirmed diagnosis of certain advanced or spread (metastatic) solid tumours that show nectin-4, which have got worse after all suitable treatments, or where no standard treatment with proven benefit exists.
- In Part C of the study, people with head and neck squamous cell cancer (HNSCC — a type of head and neck cancer) may join as their first treatment.
Who may not be able to
- Cancer that has spread to the brain or spinal cord and is active or not controlled.
- A history of other solid tumours besides the ones being studied.
- Heart problems or events in the past 6 months.
- Existing nerve damage (neuropathy) that is Grade 2 or worse.
- Poorly controlled diabetes, a high HbA1C blood test (8% or more), or known diabetic nerve damage.
- An active eye disease at the start of the study.
- Long-term severe liver disease or scarring of the liver (cirrhosis).
- Lung inflammation (interstitial lung disease or pneumonitis) within 6 months of starting study treatment.
- Other significant health problems.

About This Trial
The goal of this clinical trial is to define a safe and effective dose of CRB-701 for participants with solid tumors that are expressing a protein called nectin-4. The main questions it aims to answer are: What is the the safe and effective dose of CRB-701? What cancers can be treated effectively with CRB-701? Participants will be asked to attend clinic and be given a intravenous infusion of CRB-701. They will have blood tests, CT or MRI Scans, and other assessments to measure whether CRB-701 has an effect on tumors.
More detail
This is a three-part open-label, Phase 1/2 clinical trial designed to evaluate the safety, PK, and efficacy of CRB-701 in participants with advanced solid tumors expressing nectin-4. Part A will include solid tumor types known to express nectin-4. Dose escalation will be guided by the Bayesian optimal interval (BOIN) design to determine the Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) of CRB-701. Four (4) dose groups are pre-determined. Dose escalation/de-escalation decisions are made based on the occurrence of DLT. Part B will evaluate two dose levels of CRB-701 alone and in combination with anti-PD-1 by using a time-to-event Bayesian optimal Phase 2 study design to optimize the dose of CRB-701 in one or more separate cohorts of participants with nectin-4-positive tumors. During Part C, the recommended dose level of CRB-701 for further exploration defined in Part B will explore CRB-701 alone or combined with anti-PD-1 in up to seven separate cohorts of participants with advanced tumors known to express Nectin-4.
