Last Updated: 2022-08-18

Basic Information

• Recruitment Status: TERMINATED
• Clinical Phase: PHASE1/PHASE2
• Total Enrollment: 38 participants
• Study Classification: INTERVENTIONAL
• Study Start Date: 2015-02-28
• Study Completion Date: 2021-03-22

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of MT-3724 in subjects with relapsed or refractory B-Cell NHL or relapsed and refractory CLL (Part 1 only) and relapsed and refractory DLBCL (Part 2 and Part 3). Part 3 evaluates the efficacy of MT-3724.

Detailed Description

This is a three-part Phase 2 study

Part 1: (MT-3724 Dose Escalation) Define the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of MT-3724 [Completed]

Part 2: (MTD Expansion Cohort) Confirm the safety and tolerability of the MTD of MT-3724 in the MTD Expansion Cohort.

Part 3: (Phase 2 MTD Expansion Cohort) Determine the efficacy of MT-3724 as monotherapy in subjects with relapsed or refractory DLBCL based on the overall response rate (ORR) by the revised Lugano Classification for Lymphoma adjusted according to LYRIC.

It is anticipated that up to 100 patients will be enrolled in Part 3. Treatment will continue for up to six 21 days cycles. If the subject exhibits SD, CR or PR after the end of Cycle 6 and the investigator determines that the benefit-risk ratio is favorable, then the treatment with MT-3724 may be continued after discussion with the sponsor.

Conditions
