A Study of KIVU-107 in Participants With Locally Advanced or Metastatic Solid Tumors

This is a 2-part, first-in-human, open-label study to determine the safety and tolerability of KIVU-107, a PTK7-directed antibody-drug conjugate, in participants with locally advanced or metastatic solid tumors.

About this study

Part A: The primary objective of Part A of this study is to evaluate the safety and tolerability of KIVU-107 and to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD)/Recommended Dose for Expansion (RDE).

Part B: The primary objective of Part B of this study is to confirm the safety and tolerability of KIVU-107 at the RDE.

    PK Assessment

Other outcomes

  1. To evaluate biomarkers with potential to predict response and/or resistance to KIVU-107 characterize baseline levels and/ or changes in genomic, mRNA and/or protein biomarkers to determine any signatures correlated with response or resistance.

    Time frame: Up to 30 months

  2. Progression Free Survival (PFS) is defined as the time from the first dose to either disease progression according to RECIST v. 1.1, or death due to any cause, whichever comes first.
