Antisoma's AS1409 enters Ph I trial

3 March 2008

UK cancer drug developer Antisoma says AS1409 has entered clinical trials. A Phase I study of the agent has commenced in patients with renal cancer and melanoma. The trial has two parts. In the first, successive cohorts of patients will receive increasing doses of AS1409. This will continue until a maximum tolerated dose is found. The second part of the study will evaluate the safety and activity of that dose in around 20 more patients. Final results are expected in 2009.
