It is also being evaluated in head and neck squamous cell carcinoma and other advanced solid tumors, including micro satellite stable colorectal, gastric/esophageal, high-grade serous ovarian, pancreatic, and triple negative breast cancer.

What phase is Azirkitug in?

Azirkitug is in Phase 1 clinical development. It is investigational and has not been approved by the FDA. The single ongoing trial is a Phase 1 study evaluating adverse events and pharmacokinetics in adult participants with non-small cell lung cancer and other solid tumors.

Who is developing Azirkitug?

Azirkitug is being developed by AbbVie Inc., which trades on the New York Stock Exchange under the ticker ABBV. AbbVie is the sponsor of the Phase 1 clinical program evaluating the drug in non-small cell lung cancer and other advanced solid tumors.

What clinical trials is Azirkitug in?

Azirkitug is being studied in one active clinical trial, NCT05005403. The trial is currently recruiting and has an estimated enrollment of 694 participants. It is a controlled Phase 1 study evaluating intravenous Azirkitug alone or in combination with budigalimab, bevacizumab, or telisotuzumab adizutecan.

Where is the Azirkitug clinical trial taking place?

The Azirkitug Phase 1 trial NCT05005403 is recruiting participants across the United States, Canada, Israel, Japan, South Korea, and Taiwan. It enrolls adults aged 18 years and older with non-small cell lung cancer, head and neck squamous cell carcinoma, and other advanced solid tumors.

Is Azirkitug biomarker selected?

Yes, the Azirkitug Phase 1 trial NCT05005403 is biomarker selected, meaning enrollment is guided by specific biomarker criteria. The study evaluates intravenous Azirkitug alone or in combination with budigalimab, bevacizumab, or telisotuzumab adizutecan in adults with non-small cell lung cancer and other solid tumors.
