A Study of DKN-01 in Multiple Myeloma or Advanced Solid Tumors

Completed · Phase 1

Conditions studied: Multiple Myeloma, Solid Tumors, Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer

In brief

The purpose of this trial is to characterize the safety and toxicity of DKN-01 by determining a maximum-tolerated dose and associated dose limiting toxicity. To evaluate the pharmacodynamic response in patients with cancer. To characterize the pharmacokinetic parameters of DKN-01 in cancer patients who are intolerant to standard/approved therapies.

You may qualify if…

• Part A: Patients with histological or cytological confirmed multiple myeloma or advanced solid tumors. For multiple myeloma, must have symptomatic myeloma as defined by the International Myeloma Working Group inclusive of measurable serum and/or urine monoclonal protein (M-protein) or for those without elevations they must have measurable increased concentrations of free light chains
• Part B: Patients with previously treated, histologically confirmed advanced NSCLC with progressive disease requiring therapy
• Parts A and B:
• Refractory or intolerant to all standard/approved therapy(ies)
• Patients with solid tumors must have one or more metastatic tumors measurable on computed tomography (CT) scan using Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) criteria
• Radiation for symptomatic lesions outside the central nervous system (CNS) must have been completed at least 2 week prior to study enrollment
• Treated brain metastases will be allowed, if they are asymptomatic. Patients must be off corticosteroids for at least 2 week prior to study entry

• Life expectancy of at least 3 months
• Ambulatory patients greater than or equal to (≥) 30 years of age
• Females with child bearing potential must have a negative serum pregnancy test within 7 days of study entry
• Acceptable liver function, renal function, hematologic status
• Urinalysis - No clinically significant abnormalities
• Acceptable coagulation status:
• Prothrombin Time/Partial Thromboplastin Time (PT/PTT) ≤ 1.2 x upper limit of normal (ULN) (unless receiving anticoagulation therapy - eligibility based upon INR)
• International Normalization Ratio (INR) ≤ 1.6 (unless receiving anticoagulant therapy)

• Pregnant or nursing women
• Radiation therapy, surgery, or chemotherapy, within 1 month prior to study entry
• Previously treated with an anti-Dickkopf-related protein 1 (DKK-1) therapy
• Significant allergy to a biological pharmaceutical therapy
• History of major organ transplant
• Had an autologous or allogenic bone marrow transplant, current acute leukemia, colon, prostate, breast or small cell lung cancer, osteoblastic lesions, concomitant disease known to influence calcium metabolism including hyperparathyroidism, hyperthyroidism and/or Paget's disease of bone
• Unwillingness / inability to comply with procedures
• Known infection with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), hepatitis B, or hepatitis C
• Serious nonmalignant disease
• Receiving other investigational agent or have received other investigational agent within last 30 days or 5 half-lives, whichever is longer
