Research summary
The purpose of this phase Ib study is to determine the pharmacodynamically active dose (PAD) of gevokizumab monotherapy. Also to determine tolerable dose and efficacy of gevokizumab in combination with the standard of care (SOC) anti-cancer therapies in patients with metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC), metastatic gastroesophageal cancer (mGEC) and metastatic renal cell carcinoma (mRCC).
The study will recruit subjects into four cohorts: A (first line mCRC), B (second line mCRC), C (second line mGEC), and D (second/third line mRCC), and will include three parts: Part 1a (dose finding, cohorts A/B), Part 1b (safety run-in, cohorts A/B/C/D) and Part 2 (expansion, cohorts A/B/C/D). Approximately 11 patients will be enrolled in UK across 4 sites.REC name
