a study with abbv-155 alone and in combination with taxane therapy in adults with relapsed and/or refractory solid tumors

Conditions: Advanced Solid Tumors

Summary: an open-label, dose-escalation (part 1), dose-expansion (part 2) study to assess the safety, pharmacokinetics (pk), and preliminary efficacy of abbv-155 alone and in combination with paclitaxel or docetaxel. in part 1 (dose escalation), participants will receive escalating doses of abbv-155 monotherapy (part 1a) or abbv-155 in combination with paclitaxel or docetaxel (part 1b). in part 2 (dose expansion), participants will receive abbv-155 monotherapy or in combination therapy. the abbv-155 monotherapy cohort will enroll participants with relapsed or refractory (r/r) small cell lung cancer (sclc) (part 2a); the abbv-155 plus a taxane (paclitaxel or docetaxel) combination cohort will enroll participants with r/r non-small cell lung cancer (nsclc) and breast cancer (part 2b).

the escalation cohorts (part 1) have been completed. the expansion cohorts (part 2) are open to enrollment.

Eligibility criteria:
inclusion criteria: * has a histologic or cytologic diagnosis of a malignant solid tumor. * participants enrolled in part 2a (monotherapy, dose expansion) must have small cell lung cancer (sclc) diagnosis; participants enrolled to part 2b (combination therapy, dose expansion) must have either nsclc or hr-positive/her2-negative breast cancer. * measurable disease defined by response evaluation criteria in solid tumors (recist) criteria. * an eastern cooperative oncology group (ecog) performance status less than or equal to 2. * failure of at least 1 prior systemic chemotherapy including all available standard therapies for participants in the dose-escalation phase (parts 1a and 1b) including the safety lead-in phase (japan only). * all participants with breast cancer for subjects in the dose-expansion phase (part 2b only) must have the following: * locally advanced or metastatic hr-positive/her2-negative breast cancer after failing cyclin-dependent kinase (cdk)4/6 inhibitor-based therapy. * hr-positivity and her-2-negativity should be confirmed based on american society of clinical oncology (asco)/college of american pathologists (cap) criteria. * all participants with non-small cell lung cancer (nsclc) for participants in the dose-expansion phase (part 2b only) must have r/r nsclc after at least 1 line of therapy. participants with activating mutations in egfr, alk/ros1, braf genes, or with positive expression of pd-l1 must have been treated with the appropriate targeted therapies. * all participants with sclc in the dose-expansion phase (part 2a only) must have r/r sclc from at least 1 line of therapy which includes a platinum-based therapy with or without an anti-pd-1/pd-l1 therapy. * all participants with either breast cancer or nsclc must have the following if exposed to prior taxane-based therapy: * no history of taxane allergy (part 1b and part 2b only). * disease that has relapsed or progressed at least 2 months after most recent exposure to any taxane-based therapy. * available tumor tissue suitable for immunohistochemistry testing. * adequate kidney, liver, and hematologic laboratory values as described in the protocol. exclusion criteria: * untreated brain or meningeal metastases (participants with a history of metastases may be eligible based on details described in the protocol). * grade 2 or higher peripheral neuropathy (only applies to participants who would receive taxane therapy). * unresolved grade 2 or higher toxicities related to previous anticancer therapy except alopecia. * known active infection of hepatitis b, hepatitis c, or human immunodeficiency virus with exceptions as described in the protocol. * recent history (within 6 months) of congestive heart failure (defined in the protocol), ischemic cardiovascular event, cardiac arrhythmia requiring pharmacological or surgical intervention, pericardial effusion, or pericarditis. * any history of hypersensitivity to any ingredients of abbv-155 will be excluded. for combination therapy only (parts 1b and 2b), no history of serious allergic reaction to any taxane or any ingredients used in taxane formulation (e.g., cremaphor).
