Summary

This trial tests a new drug, INBRX-105, alone and with Pembrolizumab, to help the immune system fight cancer in patients who may not respond to standard treatments. Pembrolizumab is an FDA-approved medication used in various cancers, including advanced non-small cell lung cancer and metastatic melanoma.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults with certain advanced solid tumors, including lung, head and neck, stomach, kidney cancers and melanoma. Participants must have tried standard treatments without success or have no other options available. They should be in good physical condition (ECOG PS of 0 or 1) and have proper organ function. Those with untreated non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) must show a specific level of PD-L1 protein presence.
What is being tested?
The study tests INBRX-105 alone and combined with Pembrolizumab in patients to find the safest dose that can be tolerated. INBRX-105 is an innovative antibody targeting two proteins on cancer cells: PD-L1 which helps them hide from the immune system, and 4-1BB which activates T-cells against the tumor.
What are the potential side effects?
Possible side effects include reactions related to immune system activation such as inflammation in various organs, skin rashes, fatigue, changes in blood counts leading to increased infection risk or bleeding tendencies. Specific side effects will depend on how each patient's body reacts to the treatment.

Mechanism Of Action
Side Effect Profile
Prior Approvals
Other Research
Common treatments for stomach cancer include immune checkpoint inhibitors like pembrolizumab and nivolumab, which target the PD-1/PD-L1 pathway. These drugs work by blocking the interaction between PD-1 on T-cells and PD-L1 on tumor cells, thereby enhancing the immune system's ability to attack cancer cells. Additionally, 4-1BB agonists, such as those being studied in the INBRX-105 trial, provide localized T-cell co-stimulation, further boosting the immune response against the tumor. These mechanisms are crucial for stomach cancer patients as they offer a targeted approach to enhance the body's natural defenses, potentially leading to better outcomes and fewer side effects compared to traditional chemotherapy.
