Clinical trial for Gastric Adenocarcinoma
Official title A Study of ASP2138 Given by Itself or Given With Other Cancer Treatments in Adults With Stomach Cancer, Gastroesophageal Junction Cancer, or Pancreatic Cancer
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT05365581
What this study is testing
What is ASP2138?
ASP2138 is an investigational medicine being studied as a potential treatment for stomach, gastroesophageal junction, and pancreatic cancer. It is designed to bind to a protein on tumor cells and a protein on T-cells to help the immune system attack the tumor.
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 a new drug called ASP2138 is safe. It also looks at the right amount to give.
- Who it's for
- You may be able to join if you have stomach, junction, or pancreatic cancer. Your cancer must have a specific marker called CLDN18.2.
- What's involved
- You would get ASP2138 through a vein or under the skin. You might also get standard cancer treatments at the same time.
- Time commitment
- The study lasts until your treatment ends or the doctor stops it. You will have a final visit seven days after your last dose.
- Phase 1: an early, usually small safety study
