Phase I/II Study of hLL1 in Multiple Myeloma
Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
This is a Phase I/II, open-label, multi-center study conducted in patients with recurrent or refractory multiple myeloma who have failed at least two prior standard systemic treatments.
Condition or Disease | Intervention/Treatment | Phase |
---|---|---|
|
Phase 1/Phase 2 |
Detailed Description
All patients receive hLL1 administered intravenously twice weekly for 4 consecutive weeks. Cohorts of 3-6 patients will receive escalating doses of hLL1 in order to determine the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) for this administration schedule. Up to approximately 30 additional patients will be entered at one or more dose levels at or below the MTD in order to determine the optimal dose for subsequent studies.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- safety and tolerability of hLL1 administered twice weekly for 4 consecutive weeks [first 12 weeks, then over 2 years]
Secondary Outcome Measures
- The secondary objectives are to obtain information on efficacy, pharmacodynamics, pharmacokinetics, and immunogenicity, and to determine the optimal dose for subsequent studies. [first 12 weeks, then over 2 years]
