Phase 1 trial of zolbetuximab in Japanese patients with CLDN18.2+ gastric or gastroesophageal junction adenocarcinoma.

ABSTRACT: Zolbetuximab is a chimeric monoclonal antibody that targets claudin-18.2, a candidate biomarker in patients with advanced gastric/gastroesophageal cancer. This nonrandomized phase 1 study (NCT03528629) enrolled previously treated Japanese patients with claudin-18.2-positive locally advanced/metastatic gastric/gastroesophageal cancer in two parts: Safety (Arms A and B, n = 3 each) and Expansion (n = 12). Patients received intravenous zolbetuximab 800 mg/m² on cycle 1, day 1 followed by 600 mg/m² every 3 weeks (Q3W; Safety Part Arm A and Expansion) or 1000 mg/m² Q3W (Safety Part Arm B). For the Safety Part, the primary endpoint was safety (i.e., dose-limiting toxicities [DLTs]) and a secondary endpoint was objective response rate (ORR) by investigator. For th
