Study Endpoints

Primary Endpoints

Phase 1a: Number of Participants Experiencing Adverse Events (AEs)
Up to approximately 24 months

Number of participants with treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) and serious adverse events (SAEs), including dose limiting toxicities (DLTs), AEs meeting protocol-defined adverse event of clinical interest (AECI) criteria, laboratory values, and electrocardiogram results.

Phase 1a: Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) or Maximum Administered Dose (MAD) of BG-C0979 Monotherapy
Up to approximately 10 months

MTD or MAD, defined as the highest dose for which the estimated toxicity rate is closest to the target toxicity rate of 28%, or the highest dose administered, respectively.

Phase 1a: Recommended Dose(s) for Expansion (RDFE[s])
Up to approximately 10 months

The potential RDFE(s) of BG-C0979 will be determined based on the totality of data including the MTD or MAD, long-term tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK), preliminary antitumor activity, and any other relevant data, as available.

Phase 1b: Recommended Phase 2 Dose (RP2D)
Up to approximately 24 months

RP2D of BG-C0979 alone and in combination with tislelizumab will be determined based on safety, PK, preliminary antitumor activity, and other relevant data, as available.

Phase 1b: Overall Response Rate (ORR)
Up to approximately 24 months

ORR as determined from tumor assessment by the investigator using Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) v1.1. For castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC), ORR will be assessed by RECIST v1.1 criteria for soft tissue and Prostate Cancer Clinical Trials Working Group 3 (PCWG3) criteria for bone lesions. ORR is defined as the percentage of participants with best overall response of a complete response (CR) or partial response (PR).

Secondary Endpoints

Phase 1a: ORR
Up to approximately 24 months
Phase 1a and 1b: Duration of Response (DOR)
Up to approximately 24 months
Phase 1a and 1b: Disease Control Rate (DCR)
Up to approximately 24 months

Frequently asked questions about BG-C0979

What is BG-C0979 used for in advanced solid tumors?

BG-C0979 is an investigational small molecule being studied for the treatment of advanced solid tumors. It is currently in Phase 1 clinical development as a potential therapy for patients with advanced solid tumors, a type of cancer that has spread or is not responsive to standard treatments.

What does BG-C0979 target?

BG-C0979 targets ADAM9, a protein involved in cancer progression. By targeting ADAM9, BG-C0979 aims to interfere with tumor growth and spread. This mechanism is being evaluated in a first-in-human study for patients with advanced solid tumors.

Who is developing BG-C0979?

BG-C0979 is being developed by BeOne Medicines Ltd., a biopharmaceutical company. The company is conducting a Phase 1 clinical trial to evaluate the safety and efficacy of BG-C0979 in patients with advanced solid tumors.

What phase is BG-C0979 in?

BG-C0979 is in Phase 1 clinical development. It is an investigational drug currently being studied in a first-in-human trial for advanced solid tumors. The drug has not yet been approved by regulatory authorities and remains in early-stage clinical testing.

What clinical trials is BG-C0979 in?

BG-C0979 is being evaluated in a Phase 1 clinical trial with the identifier NCT07414836. This first-in-human study is recruiting 84 participants with advanced solid tumors across the United States, Australia, China, and Spain. The trial is currently active and recruiting patients.

Is BG-C0979 the same as ADAM9 inhibitor?

BG-C0979 is a small molecule that targets ADAM9, making it an ADAM9 inhibitor. It is being developed as a potential treatment for advanced solid tumors. The drug is currently in Phase 1 clinical trials to assess its safety and preliminary efficacy.
