About This Trial

Phase Ib/II, multicohort, single arm, open-label, multicenter, international clinical trial, with 6 cohorts (advanced STS, advanced L-sarcomas, other advanced sarcomas, advanced solid tumors, and localized STS) with 4 sites in Spain for phase I. The aim of this study is to explore different infusions of PM14 (longer or repeated) in order to obtain a potentially better efficacy and similar toxicity profile in advanced soft tissue sarcoma patients as monotherapy and also in other solid tumors as concomitant treatment with radiation therapy. Treatment Cohort A A phase I dose-finding stage for PM14 is planned with an estimated number of 20-25 patients. PM14 will be tested at different dose levels in 24-h IV infusion on day 1 of 21-day cycles, up to progression or unacceptable toxicity. Premedication with dexamethasone is recommended on the day before treatment initiation. Cohort B A phase I dose-finding stage for PM14 is planned with an estimated number of 20-25 patients. PM14 will be tested at different dose levels in 3-h IV infusion during 3 consecutive days (days 1-3) of 21-day cycles, up to progression or unacceptable toxicity. Premedication with dexamethasone is recommended on the day before treatment initiation. Cohort E PM14 will be administered at the recommended phase II dose (RP2D) according to the most convenient scheme. Cycles will be administered by central venous port. Premedication with dexamethasone is recommended on the day before treatment initiation. Cycles will be repeated every 21 days up to progression or unacceptable toxicity. Cohort F PM14 will be administered at the RP2D according to the most convenient scheme. Cycles will be administered by central venous port. Premedication with dexamethasone is recommended on the day before treatment initiation. Cycles will be repeated every 21 days up to progression or unacceptable toxicity. Cohort C Phase I: PM14 will be administered at the RP2D according to the most convenient scheme in 21-day cycles, at at different dose levels in combination with radiotherapy, up to progression or unacceptable toxicity. Cycles will be administered by central venous port. Premedication with dexamethasone is recommended on the day before treatment initiation and during 2 additional days (in the 24-hour infusion) and during 3 additional days (in the 3-hour infusion). Radiation therapy will start within 1 hour of PM14 infuser disconnection and will be administered with 3 Gy per fraction for 10 days (30 Gy in total). Phase II: PM14 will be administered at RP2D concomitant with radiation therapy. Cohort D Phase I: PM14 will be administered at the RP2D according to the most convenient scheme, in up to 3 x 21-day cycles in neoadjuvant setting, at different dose levels in combination with radiotherapy. Cycles will be administered by central venous port. Premedication with dexamethasone is recommended on the day before treatment initiation. Radiation therapy will start within 1 hour of PM14 infuser disconnection and will be administered with 1.8 Gy per fraction for 25 days (45 Gy in total). Phase II: PM14 will be administered at RP2D concomitant with radiation therapy.

What Stage of Research Is This?

Phase 1 trials test a new treatment for the first time in humans, focusing on safety, dosing, and how the body processes the drug. For Advanced Soft-tissue Sarcoma, a Phase 1 study typically enrolls a small number of participants — often healthy volunteers or patients who have exhausted standard treatment options. Phase 1 results determine whether a treatment moves into larger Phase 2 efficacy studies.

This trial is currently recruiting participants. The sponsor has registered the study with ClinicalTrials.gov as actively enrolling, which means new applicants who meet the eligibility criteria can be considered for screening. Trial status can change between updates — confirm current recruiting status with the study contact before traveling for a screening visit.

Target enrollment of 195 participants puts this in the typical range for a Phase 2-style efficacy study or a moderate Phase 3 trial in a focused Advanced Soft-tissue Sarcoma subpopulation. At this scale, the study has enough statistical power to detect a clear treatment effect but is not the largest cohort in the field.
