CDISC-Gloss – A predominantly First-in-Human (FIH) trial with a single protocol with an initial dose-escalation phase followed by three or more additional subject cohorts with cohort- specific objectives.
NOTE: The objectives of these expansion cohorts can include assessment of antitumor activity in a disease-specific setting, assessment of a dose with acceptable safety in specific populations (e.g., pediatric or elderly subjects, subjects with organ impairment, subjects with specific tumor types), evaluation of alternative doses or schedules, establishment of dose and schedule for the investigational drug administered with another oncology drug, or evaluation of the predictive value of a potential biomarker. In general, comparison of activity between cohorts is not planned except when a prespecified randomization and analysis plan are part of the protocol design.
