Study on AL3818 and Nivolumab for Treating Advanced Solid Tumors

Sponsor: Sarcoma Oncology Research Center, LLC

Sponsor score: 0

ClinicalTrials ID:NCT04165330

This clinical trial is testing a new treatment combining AL3818 and Nivolumab to see if it is safe and effective for adults with advanced, spreading, or returning solid tumors. The study will determine the best dose and evaluate the treatment's impact on different types of cancer, including soft tissue sarcomas and lung cancers.

Patient Parameters

Program Overview

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of a new treatment combining AL3818 (anlotinib) and Nivolumab (Opdivo) for patients with advanced, spreading, or returning solid tumors. The study is divided into two parts: the first part will find the best dose of AL3818 to use with Nivolumab, and the second part will test this combination on different types of cancer, such as soft tissue sarcomas, non-small cell lung cancer, and small cell lung cancer.

Description

This study is designed to test a new treatment that combines AL3818 (anlotinib) with Nivolumab (Opdivo) for patients with advanced, spreading, or returning solid tumors. The study has two main parts:

  • Part 1 (Phase 1b): This phase will determine the safest and most effective dose of AL3818 when used with Nivolumab. Participants will take AL3818 by mouth once a day for 14 days and receive Nivolumab injections on the first and fifteenth day of a 21-day cycle.

  • Part 2 (Phase 2a): This phase will test the combination treatment on specific cancers, including soft tissue sarcomas, non-small cell lung cancer, and small cell lung cancer. The treatment will be given in 21-day cycles, with AL3818 taken orally for 14 days and Nivolumab given every two weeks, for up to 24 cycles.

The study aims to find out if this combination can help control these cancers and improve patient outcomes.
