The purpose of this first-in-human study is to find out if BNT314 is safe when it is used alone in patients with different types of cancer. This is a dose escalation study in which patients will be assigned to multiple dose levels (DLs) of BNT314 given alone. By escalating the dose with a small group of patients, the Maximum Tolerated Dose which is the highest dose with acceptable safety and manageable side effects, or the maximum administered dose will be investigated.
Phase 1 trials primarily test safety and dosing in a small number of participants (typically 20–100). Results do not yet speak to efficacy. FDA approval is typically many years away from this stage.
Enrollment is complete. The trial is in its follow-up or data collection phase — a readout may occur on or near the primary completion date.
BioNTech SE (BNTX) is the sponsoring company for this trial. BiotechSign currently grades this company F (20/100) based on composite catalyst signals across its full pipeline. This trial is one data point in that overall catalyst picture.
