Chugai Pharmaceutical Co. is launching a Phase I clinical trial titled An Open-Label, Multicenter Phase I Study to Evaluate the Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics, Pharmacodynamics, and Preliminary Anti-Tumor Activity of ALPS12 in Patients with Extensive Stage Small Cell Lung Cancer. The study aims to assess the safety and initial effectiveness of ALPS12 in treating this aggressive cancer type, marking a significant step in oncology research.
The trial tests ALPS12, an investigational drug administered via IV infusion, following pretreatment with obinutuzumab. This combination is intended to explore the maximum tolerated dose and the drug’s antitumor effects.
The study is interventional, non-randomized, and follows a sequential model with no masking. It primarily focuses on treatment, involving two experimental parts: dose escalation and expansion.
Key dates include the study’s start on July 30, 2025, with primary and estimated completion dates yet to be announced. The last update was also on July 30, 2025, indicating the study’s preparatory phase.
This update could influence Chugai Pharmaceutical’s stock performance, potentially boosting investor confidence due to the promising nature of the study. It also positions the company competitively within the oncology sector, where innovation is crucial.
The study is ongoing, with further details available on the ClinicalTrials portal.
