Phase 1 ABY-029 Glioma Clinical Trial

Study Purpose

The purposes of the research trial are to study the safety of ABY-029 and to understand how much of the drug is needed to reach brain tumors so it can be visualized best by surgeons. Investigators will do this by comparing two groups of participants that receive different, very small amounts of ABY-029. Investigators will use an imaging system during surgery to record the amount of ABY-029 in the participant's tumor and in the surrounding tissue.

Recruitment Criteria

Accepts Healthy Volunteers Healthy volunteers are participants who do not have a disease or condition, or related conditions or symptoms	No
Study Type An interventional clinical study is where participants are assigned to receive one or more interventions (or no intervention) so that researchers can evaluate the effects of the interventions on biomedical or health-related outcomes. An observational clinical study is where participants identified as belonging to study groups are assessed for biomedical or health outcomes. Searching Both is inclusive of interventional and observational studies.	Interventional
Eligible Ages	18 Years and Over
Gender	All

More Inclusion & Exclusion Criteria

Inclusion Criteria:

1. Clinical diagnosis of presumed high-grade glioma, based on image data. 2. Tumor judged to be suitable and planned for open cranial resection. 3. Valid informed consent by participant. 4. Age ≥ 18 years old. 5. Ability to understand and the willingness to sign a written informed consent document.

Exclusion Criteria:

1. Prisoners. 2. Individuals who are pregnant or breast feeding. 3. Participants on any experimental or approved anti-EGFR targeted therapies. 4. Elevated kidney or liver function tests (levels greater than 2.5 times the normal limit) from laboratory tests conducted as part of standard-of-care screening of prospective surgical participants no earlier than 30 days prior to surgery. 5. Any condition which, in the opinion of the clinical investigator, contraindicates research participation.

Trial Details

Trial ID: This trial id was obtained from ClinicalTrials.gov, a service of the U.S. National Institutes of Health, providing information on publicly and privately supported clinical studies of human participants with locations in all 50 States and in 196 countries.	NCT07063693
Phase Phase 1: Studies that emphasize safety and how the drug is metabolized and excreted in humans. Phase 2: Studies that gather preliminary data on effectiveness (whether the drug works in people who have a certain disease or condition) and additional safety data. Phase 3: Studies that gather more information about safety and effectiveness by studying different populations and different dosages and by using the drug in combination with other drugs. Phase 4: Studies occurring after FDA has approved a drug for marketing, efficacy, or optimal use.	Phase 1

Arms & Interventions

Arms

Experimental: ABY-029 6X dose group

ABY-029 will be administered at the 6X dose level prior to surgery to participants with presumed high-grade glioma, based on a preoperative MRI or other imaging. Investigators will collect one blood sample before participants are given ABY-029, a second sample one or two minutes after participants are given the drug, a third sample about 15 minutes after participants are given the drug, and a fourth sample about an hour after receiving the drug, or just prior to anesthesia (whichever comes first). Investigators will collect one urine sample and take EKG readings to monitor the participant's heart before surgery. Investigators will repeat blood, urine and EKG tests when participants are in the hospital after surgery.

Experimental: ABY-029 10X dose group

ABY-029 will be administered at the 10X dose level prior to surgery to participants with presumed high-grade glioma, based on a preoperative MRI or other imaging. Investigators will collect one blood sample before participants are given ABY-029, a second sample one or two minutes after participants are given the drug, a third sample about 15 minutes after participants are given the drug, and a fourth sample about an hour after receiving the drug, or just prior to anesthesia (whichever comes first). Investigators will collect one urine sample and take EKG readings to monitor the participant's heart before surgery. Investigators will repeat blood, urine and EKG tests when participants are in the hospital after surgery.

Interventions

Drug: - ABY-029

ABY-029 will be administered via single intravenous injection to subjects with high-grade glioma approximately 1-3 hours prior to surgery. All research procedures will occur during surgery. The research procedures involve image and measurement data collection and biopsy specimen sampling. Research data collection will occur at 3 or 4 time points during surgery using either standard-of-care tools and methods or non-significant risk experimental devices. No follow-up visit will be required of participants. Participants will be monitored for possible adverse events for approximately 30 days by the operating surgeon involved in the clinical trial procedures and through review of participant medical records.
