Full Title
A Phase 1 Study of SGN-STNV in Advanced Solid TumorsPurpose
The purpose of this study is to find the highest dose of the investigational drug SGN-STNV that can be given safely in people with advanced solid tumors that have come back or continued to grow despite treatment.
SGN-STNV is a type of drug called an antibody-drug conjugate (ADC). It is made up of a protein called an antibody and a chemotherapy drug. The antibody binds to a protein called STn that exists on some cancer cells. When the antibody attaches to a cancer cell, the chemotherapy drug enters the cell, causing damage to the cell that may slow or stop the growth of the cancer. SGN-STNV is given intravenously (by vein).
