Brief Summary:
This is a prospective, open label, multicenter study evaluating the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics of TrasGEX™ after intravenous administration in patients with HER-2 positive cancers. The effect of TrasGEX™ on the development of anti-drug antibodies and on tumour response will also be evaluated.

Study Description Study Design Arms and Interventions Outcome Measures Eligibility Criteria Contacts and Locations More Information

Primary Outcome Measures :
  1. optimal dose and regimen of TrasGEX™ [ Time Frame: up to at least 8 weeks after the first TrasGEX™ administration ]
    The primary objective of this first-in-man study is to determine the optimal dose and regimen of TrasGEX™ in patients with locally advanced or metastatic human epidermal growth factor receptor-2 (HER-2)-positive cancer. The recommended phase II dose needs to have an acceptable safety profile and provides evidence for efficacy based on clinical observations or the pharmacokinetic profile.


Secondary Outcome Measures :
  1. To determine preliminary evidence of activity [ Time Frame: approx. every 8 weeks ]
    CT or MRI imaging will be performed. Assessment of tumor response (SD, PR, CR. PD) will be performed following a modified version of the revised RECIST guidelines, version 1.1. Basically, patients will receive treatment with TrasGEX™ until progression of disease and/or unacceptable toxicities are observed.

  2. safety and tolerability of TrasGEX™ [ Time Frame: until 4 weeks after the last treatment with TrasGEX™ ]
    To assess the safety and tolerability of TrasGEX™ in patients with advanced and/or metastatic HER-2-positive cancer at various dose levels considering observed adverse events, laboratory values, vital signs, ECOG performance status and physical examination.

  3. To assess the pharmacokinetic (PK) profile of TrasGEX™ (part I) [ Time Frame: prior to 1st infusion until the end of 5th infusion ]
    c(max): to determine the PK profile samples will be taken before the first infusion and up to 24 h after after infusion, followed by weekly samples for the first infusion and samples immediately before and after infusion for the following infusions

  4. To assess the pharmacokinetic (PK) profile of TrasGEX™ (part II) [ Time Frame: prior to 1st infusion until the end of 5th infusion ]
    t(1/2): to determine the PK profile samples will be taken before the first infusion and up to 24 h after after infusion, followed by weekly samples for the first infusion and samples immediately before and after infusion for the following infusions
