AI summary

From the trial's eligibility criteria. Machine-read from the registry text on this page, so it can be wrong. The registry text below and the trial team decide who can take part.

The trial is looking for adults with advanced or metastatic pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma whose cancer got worse after earlier treatment and whose tumor has high CEACAM5.

Age
18 years or older
Sex
Women and men can join.
Disease stage
Advanced or metastatic pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma, confirmed by tissue or cell tests, with at least 1 lesion that can be measured (RECIST v1.1).
Earlier treatment
Must have had at least 1 and no more than 2 earlier lines of treatment for advanced or metastatic disease, and the cancer must have got worse on treatment.
Biomarker or test result
Tumor must show high CEACAM5 expression on an IHC test.

Main reasons for not taking part

  • Another cancer in the last 3 years (a few exceptions apply)
  • Known brain metastases, unless treated and stable for at least 4 weeks with no related symptoms
  • Diarrhea or ileus above Grade 1
  • Active chronic inflammatory bowel disease or bowel obstruction
  • Serious heart problems within 180 days, or stroke less than 6 months ago

Show all 13 criteriaShow less

Who can take part

  • Participants are capable of signing informed consent as defined in protocol
  • Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group Performance Status (ECOG PS) ≤1
  • Participants with adequate hematologic, hepatic and renal function as defined in protocol
  • Participant must have at least 1 lesion that is measurable using RECIST v1.1
  • Participants with histologically or cytologically confirmed advanced or metastatic PDAC, who were intolerant/refractory to or progressed after systemic therapies for the advanced metastatic stage
  • Participants must have received and progressed (according to RECIST v1.1) on at least one 1 line of therapy for the treatment of advanced/metastatic disease but no more than 2
  • All participants will be screened using an IHC test to define CEACAM5 expression. Only participants with CEACAM5 high expressing tumors will be eligible

Who cannot take part

  • Participants with known brain metastases, except those meeting the following criteria: Brain metastases that have been treated locally and are clinically stable for at least 4 weeks prior to the start of treatment; No ongoing neurological symptoms that are related to the brain localization of the disease (sequelae that are a consequence of the treatment of the brain metastases are acceptable)
  • Cerebrovascular accident/stroke (< 6 months prior to enrollment)
  • Participant has a history of malignancy within 3 years before the date of enrollment (exceptions are squamous and basal cell carcinomas of the skin and carcinoma in situ of the cervix, benign prostate neoplasm/hypertropia, or malignancy that in the opinion of the Investigator, with concurrence with the Sponsor’s Medical Monitor, is considered cured with minimal risk of recurrence within 3 years)
  • Participants with active chronic inflammatory bowel disease (e.g., ulcerative colitis, Crohn’s disease, intestinal perforation) and/or bowel obstruction
  • Cardiac arrhythmia, unstable angina, myocardial infarction, congestive heart failure (New York Heart Association [NYHA] ≥ II) or a coronary revascularization procedure within 180 days of study entry. Calculated QTc average (using the Fridericia correction calculation) of > 470 milliseconds (ms)
  • Participants with diarrhea (liquid stool) or ileus Grade > 1
