Summary

This trial is testing a drug called BT5528 to see if it is safe and effective for treating various types of cancer.

Who is the study for?
Adults with advanced solid tumors known for high EphA2 expression, including ovarian, lung (NSCLC), triple-negative breast, gastric/GI, head and neck, and urothelial cancers. Participants must have tried all other treatments without success or be ineligible for them. They need proper organ function and agree to use effective contraception.
What is being tested?
The trial is testing the safety and effectiveness of a new drug called BT5528 alone and in combination with nivolumab against various advanced solid tumors. It aims to determine safe dosages, understand side effects better, and evaluate how well BT5528 works on these cancers.
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects include typical reactions associated with cancer drugs such as immune-related issues due to nivolumab (like inflammation in organs), infusion reactions from BT5528 administration, fatigue, digestive problems like nausea or diarrhea, blood disorders that can affect cell counts leading to increased infection risk.

Trial Design

3Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Group I: Phase II - Dose expansion 1 (BT5528)Experimental Treatment1 Intervention
A cohort of participants will receive the selected dose of BT5528 as a monotherapy. It is expected that up to 192 patients have solid tumors (Cohort 1: urothelial cancers, Cohort 2: ovarian cancer, Cohort 3: non-small cell lung cancer, Cohort 4: head and neck cancer, Cohort 5: triple-negative breast cancer, and Cohort 6: gastric/upper gastrointestinal cancer) historically known for high expression of EphA2 will participate in this dose-expansion arm
Group II: Phase I - Dose escalation combination (BT5528 & nivolumab)Experimental Treatment2 Interventions
Cohorts of participants will receive increasing doses of BT5528 and a standard dose of nivolumab. It is expected that up to 24 participants will participate in this dose-escalation combination arm.
Group III: Phase I - Dose escalation (BT5528)Experimental Treatment1 Intervention
Cohorts of participants will receive increasing doses of BT5528. It is expected that up to 72 participants will participate in this dose escalation arm.
