Quick Navigation

Study Overview

This clinical trial focuses on testing the efficacy of different digital interventions to promote re-engagement in cancer-related long-term follow-up care for adolescent and young adult (AYA) survivors of childhood cancer.

Description

A first-in-human, multicenter, open-label, dose escalation and dose expansion phase 1 study in patients with advanced solid tumors to evaluate the safety of intravenously administered ALG.APV-527 (Short title: ALG.APV-527 first-in-human study). Adult patients with advanced/metastatic solid tumors likely to express 5T4 antigen who have failed standard of care regimens for their cancer, have become refractory to standard treatment, or for whom no effective therapy exists based on investigator judgment may be enrolled in this study. Part 1 (Dose Escalation): Approximately 36 evaluable patients planned to be enrolled. Part 2 (Dose Expansion): Approximately 20 evaluable patients planned to be enrolled.
