A Study of Anti-VEGFR-3 Monoclonal Antibody IMC-3C5 in Subjects With Advanced Solid Tumors

This multicenter study will enroll approximately 40 participants. The actual sample size will vary depending on how many participants are needed to obtain at least 3 complete participants per cohort.

IMC-3C5 will initially be administered once every week (Cohorts 1-4) in a dose escalated manner. The starting dose will be 5 mg/kg weekly (Cohort 1). Dose escalation will proceed to 10 mg/kg (Cohort 2), 20 mg/kg (Cohort 3), and 30 mg/kg (Cohort 4). Based on an analysis of the safety and pharmacokinetic profile of weekly dosing, participants may be enrolled sequentially into 2 every-other-week dose cohorts (Cohorts 5-6, 20 mg/kg and 30 mg/kg). Intermediate doses may also be used.
