Dissocation Constant (Kd) Binding Target Description Reference
2.44 nM
KATOIII-hCLDN18.2
To assess the ADC's binding activity and specificity, we investigated the binding of CMG901 to cell lines KATOIII-hCLDN18.2, HEK293-hCLDN18.2, and HEK293-hCLDN18.1 using flow cytometry. CMG901 bound specifically to KATOIII-hCLDN18.2 and HEK293-hCLDN18.2 in a concentration-dependent manner with high affinity (half maximum effective concentration [EC50] = 2.44 to 6.43 nM)

29%
Patients Enrolled
Eligibility requires ECOG 0-1, advanced solid tumors (Part A: measurable/evaluable; Part B: confirmed Claudin 18.2+ lesions). Key exclusions: recent anticancer therapies (<28 days), active infections/CNS metastases, neuropathy &ge;Grade 2, uncontrolled effusions, HBV/HCV viremia, or QTc >480msec. Contraception is mandated for reproductive-age participants.

Administration Dosage
CMG901 will be administered intravenously (IV) on Day 1 of every 21-day cycle. Individual subjects may continue study treatment until confirmed Progressive Disease (PD), unacceptable toxicity, initiation of new anti-tumor therapy, withdrawal from the study, or death, whichever occurs first.

NCT Number NCT04805307  Clinical Status PHASE1
Clinical Description An Open-Label, Phase 1, Dose Escalation and Dose Expansion Study to Evaluate the Safety, Tolerability, Pharmacokinetics and Antitumor Activities of CMG901 in Subjects With Advanced Unresectable or Metastatic Solid Tumor
Primary Endpoint
Part A evaluates safety endpoints including AE incidence, lab abnormalities (30 days post-treatment), and MTD determination (21-day DLT window). Part B focuses on preliminary efficacy (ORR per RECIST v1.1) and RP2D establishment for Claudin 18.2+ advanced solid tumors over 24 months.
Other Endpoint
Comprehensive PK analysis covers AUC (0-last/tau/inf), Cmax, Tmax, clearance, and volume parameters through 24 months, alongside immunogenicity (anti-CMG901 antibodies). Secondary endpoints include DCR, DoR, PFS, OS, and Claudin 18.2 expression correlation, with Part B adding NCI CTCAE v5.0 safety monitoring.
Experiment 2 Reporting the Activity Date of This ADC [3]
Patients Enrolled
Eligible participants (&ge;18yo, ECOG 0-1) required CLDN18.2+ lesions (RECIST v1.1), adequate organ function (>35kg). Substudies targeted specific cancers: GC/GEJC (&le;2 prior lines), PDAC (treatment-na&iuml;ve metastatic), biliary tract (1-2 prior lines). Key exclusions: active GI bleeding, ascites, ILD history, CNS metastases, prior MMAE-ADC/CLDN18.2 therapy (except antibodies), QTc risks (Substudy 1), UGT1A1/CYP3A4 interactions (Substudy 2), or biliary obstruction (Substudy 3).

Administration Dosage
Substudy 1 is recruiting patients with human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-negative, CLDN18.2-expressing G/GEJ cancer with ≤2 prior lines of therapy for unresectable or metastatic disease, who are randomized 1:1 to receive AZD0901 1.8 or 2.2 mg/kg intravenous (IV) every 3 weeks (Q3W).

NCT Number NCT06219941  Clinical Status PHASE2
Clinical Description A Phase II, Open-label, Multi-centre Study to Evaluate Safety, Tolerability, Efficacy, PK, and Immunogenicity of AZD0901 as Monotherapy and in Combination With Anti-cancer Agents in Participants With Advanced Solid Tumours Expressing Claudin 18.2 (CLARITY-PanTumour01)
Primary Endpoint
Safety monitoring included AEs/SAEs, lab/vital sign changes, DLTs (30 days post-treatment; AE follow-up for 90 days). Primary objective assessed AZD0901's safety (monotherapy/combination) in CLDN18.2+ advanced/metastatic solid tumors, analyzing discontinuation rates and tolerability.
Other Endpoint
Efficacy measures included ORR (RECIST v1.1), OS, PFS (both ~2 years), DoR, DCR (11-week landmark), and tumor shrinkage percentage. PK analysis covered serum concentrations (AZD0901/MMAE) and parameters (AUC/Cmax/tmax) until 90 days post-treatment, alongside immunogenicity (ADA) and biomarker correlations (tissue-based RNA/DNA/proteins) during early treatment.
