Study Endpoints

Primary Endpoints

Safety and tolerability of vantictumab in combination with docetaxel in patients with recurrent or advanced NSCLC. The maximum tolerated dose (MTD) will be determined in patients treated with vantictumab in combination with weekly paclitaxel.
Subjects will be treated and observed for DLT through the end of the first cycle (Days 0-28)
Phase 1b: Safety and tolerability of vantictumab in combination with nab-paclitaxel and gemcitabine in patients with previously untreated Stage IV pancreatic cancer
Subjects will be treated and observed for DLT through the end of the first cycle (Days 0-28)

The maximum tolerated dose (MTD) will be determined in patients treated with vantictumab in combination with weekly nab-paclitaxel

Secondary Endpoints

Pharmacokinetics (PK) of vantictumab when administered in combination with docetaxel to patients with recurrent or advanced NSCLC
Plasma sample for Pharmacokinetics (PK) analysis to be obtained prior to the vantictumab infusion and before docetaxel infusion from Day 0 to treatment termination
Pharmacokinetics (PK) of vantictumab when administered in combination with nab-paclitaxel and gemcitabine to patients with previously untreated Stage IV pancreatic cancer
Vantictumab will be administered IV on Days 1 and 15 of each 28-day cycle. Nab-paclitaxel and gemcitabine will be administered IV on Days 1, 8, and 15 of each cycle.

Frequently asked questions about Vantictumab

What is Vantictumab?

Vantictumab is an investigational monoclonal antibody being developed by Mereo BioPharma Group plc for the treatment of pancreatic cancer and solid tumors. It is in Phase 1 clinical development and is not approved for any indication. It was studied in combination with chemotherapy agents in patients with advanced disease.

What does Vantictumab target?

Vantictumab targets the Frizzled receptors FZD1, FZD2, FZD5, FZD7, and FZD8. It acts as an antagonist of these receptors, which are part of the Wnt signaling pathway. By binding these targets, vantictumab is designed to interfere with Wnt pathway signaling in cancer cells.

Who is developing Vantictumab?

Vantictumab is being developed by Mereo BioPharma Group plc, which trades on the Nasdaq under the ticker MREO. The company holds the development program for this monoclonal antibody, which is being investigated in oncology indications including pancreatic cancer and solid tumors.

What phase is Vantictumab in?

Vantictumab is in Phase 1 clinical development. It is an investigational agent and has not been approved by the FDA for any indication. The completed Phase 1 studies evaluated the drug in combination with chemotherapy in patients with pancreatic cancer and solid tumors.

What clinical trials has Vantictumab been studied in?

Vantictumab has been evaluated in two completed Phase 1 trials. NCT02005315 studied vantictumab with nab-paclitaxel and gemcitabine in previously untreated stage IV pancreatic cancer, enrolling 30 patients. NCT01957007 studied vantictumab with docetaxel in previously treated NSCLC, enrolling 34 patients. Both trials were conducted in the United States.

Is Vantictumab the same as OMP-18R5?

Yes, Vantictumab is also known as OMP-18R5. The two names refer to the same monoclonal antibody. OMP-18R5 was the earlier designation used in the clinical trial titles, including NCT02005315 and NCT01957007, while vantictumab is the current name for the same investigational agent.
