Clinical trial for Ovarian Clear Cell Adenocarcinoma
Official title Pembrolizumab Combined With Bevacizumab With or Without Agonist Anti-CD40 CDX-1140 for the Treatment of Patients With Recurrent Ovarian Cancer
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT05231122
What this study is testing
What is CDX-1140?
an investigational intravenous monoclonal antibody being studied as a potential treatment for recurrent ovarian clear cell adenocarcinoma. is designed to activate CD40 receptors on immune cells to boost anti‑tumor immune responses.
Also referred to as Anti‑CD40 Agonist Monoclonal Antibody CDX-1140, Agonist CD40 Antibody CDX-1140, Anti‑CD40 Agonistic Monoclonal Antibody CDX-1140, CDX 1140.
Plain-language explanation of the investigational treatment. It is being studied and is not an approved or proven therapy. The study team can confirm the details.
- What it's testing
- This study is testing whether adding a new drug called CDX-1140 to two other drugs helps shrink tumors. It also looks at how safe this mix of treatments is for people.
- Who it's for
- You may be able to join if you have ovarian cancer that has come back after earlier treatment.
- What's involved
- You would get injections of pembrolizumab and bevacizumab. Some people would also get a third drug called CDX-1140. You would have regular check-ups and tests to see how your body reacts.
- Time commitment
- The study lasts for a set time, and you would need to visit the clinic for treatments and check-ups.
- Phase 2: a mid-size study of how well it works
- Which group you join is decided by chance.
