First-in-Human trial puts BA1203 to the test against advanced solid tumors
NCT ID NCT07876609
First seen Oct 15, 2026 · Last updated Oct 16, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
Researchers are running a Phase I trial of BA1203, an experimental drug given intravenously every two weeks, in adults with advanced solid tumors that have worsened after standard treatments. The study aims to find out whether BA1203 is safe and tolerable, how the body processes it, and what dose might be suitable for later testing. About 120 participants will receive the drug at different dose levels, and doctors will track side effects and any early signs of tumor response.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- an experimental drug called BA1203
- What this could lead to
- If BA1203 proves safe and shows signs of activity, it could become a new option for people whose advanced solid tumors have stopped responding to standard treatments.
- What could go wrong
- This is a first-in-human Phase I trial with 120 participants, so its main goal is to find a safe dose, not to prove the drug works. Many experimental cancer drugs fail at this stage, and BA1203 may cause side effects that limit its use.

Men: Agreement to remain abstinent (refrain from heterosexual intercourse) or use highly effective contraceptive methods and refrain from donating sperm. Exclusion Criteria: 1. Patients with primary CNS tumors or new or symptomatic CNS metastases. 2. Patients with a known history of another malignancy within 5 years prior to signing the informed consent. 3. Patients with significant cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. 4. Presence of any of the following within 8 weeks before the first dose: symptomatic radiation pneumonitis, radiation esophagitis, or radiation-induced colitis/proctitis; interstitial lung disease; pulmonary disease with severe obstructive ventilatory impairment; unhealed peptic ulcer; cirrhosis-related complications; chronic enteritis; ischemic necrotizing enteritis; gastrointestinal obstruction; tendency to gastrointestinal bleeding or high risk of gastrointestinal perforation; pancreatitis requiring treatment; arterial or venous thrombotic disease; chronic nephritis; or nephrotic syndrome. 5.

History of Stevens-Johnson syndrome, toxic epidermal necrolysis, or drug-induced hypersensitivity syndrome (DIHS). 7. History of allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation or organ transplantation, or currently awaiting transplantation. 8. Immune-related adverse events during prior antitumor therapy that make the patient no longer suitable for continued immunotherapy. 9. Prior treatment with PD-1/IL-2 or PD-1/IL-15 agents.
