Purpose
Claudiximab is a monoclonal antibody specific for gastric and gastroesophageal adenocarcinomas. Preclinically, claudiximab was shown to inhibit tumor growth and to kill cancer cells by indirect (complement-dependent cytoxicity, antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity) and direct mechanisms (antiproliferative and proapoptotic effects). The aim of this phase I study is to establish safety, toxicity and maximal tolerable dose of a single infusion of claudiximab in patients suffering from relapsing, advanced gastroesophageal and gastric adenocarcinoma

| Arms | Assigned Interventions |
|---|---|
| Experimental: Claudiximab |
Drug: Claudiximab
Patients receive Claudiximab as intravenous infusion over 2 hours on day 1. Cohorts of 3-6 patients receive escalating doses of Claudiximab until the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) is determined. The MTD is defined as the dose at which no dose-limiting toxicity (DLT) is diagnosed in 3 patients or no more than 1 out of 6 patients exhibits a DLT. After completion of study treatment, patients are followed for 4 weeks. |
