This study, ELU- FRα-1, was focused on adult subjects who have advanced, recurrent or refractory folate receptor alpha (FRα) overexpressing tumors considered to be topoisomerase 1 inhibitor-sensitive based on scientific literature, and, in the opinion of the Investigator, have no other meaningful life-prolonging therapy options available.
The study had two parts: Part 1 Dose Escalation Safety Study to identify the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and/or the recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D), and Part 2 Tumor Group Expansion Cohort(s) where specific cancer types will be evaluated for efficacy and safety at the RP2D.
Part 1, subjects with cancer types with a high likelihood of having FRα overexpressing tumors based on historical data, specifically, ovarian, endometrial, colorectal, gastric, gastroesophageal junction, triple negative breast, or non-small cell lung cancers, or cholangiocarcinoma, will be enrolled in a basket clinical study. Retrospective analysis of folate receptor alpha (FRα) expression status will be determined. Part 1 is currently closed for further recruitment.
Part 2 Stage 1 of a Simon's Two-Stage design, tumor group expansion cohorts, each consisting of subjects with cancer types studied as part of the basket in Part 1. Part 2 is closed for recruitment.

Underlined terms in the criteria open these too. Explained by clinicaltrials.gg, not part of the registry record. The study team decides who can take part.
A biopsy takes a small piece of tissue to examine. “Archival tissue” is a sample already taken, for example at diagnosis, and kept by the hospital.
Whether a stored sample will do depends on when it was taken, how much there is and what the study needs. Ask whether the study accepts your stored sample or needs a new biopsy.
The amount of disease can be tracked with a defined measurement, so the study can see whether it shrinks or grows. It might be a tumour measured on a scan or, in some blood cancers such as myeloma, a marker measured in blood or urine.
The criteria or the study team say which measurement counts — having no tumour visible on a scan does not by itself rule you out.
The standard rules for measuring tumours on CT or MRI scans, to tell whether a cancer is shrinking, stable or growing during treatment.
“Measurable disease per RECIST 1.1” usually means at least one tumour 10 mm or more at its longest on a CT scan, or a lymph node 15 mm or more across its short axis.
A scale of how much an illness limits everyday activity. For people being assessed to join a study, scores run from 0 (fully active) to 4; lower is more active.
Studies most often ask for 0–1 or 0–2. Your doctor gives the score; the WHO scale uses the same steps. The full scale also has 5, which records death.
Ways of preventing pregnancy. “Highly effective” methods fail less than 1% of the time a year when used correctly — for example an IUD or an implant.
Criteria usually say which methods count and how long to keep using them after the last dose, sometimes for male participants too. Some studies accept a partner’s vasectomy if it was confirmed successful and that person is the participant’s only sexual partner.
Judged by the study doctor to matter for your health or for the study. It is a doctor’s decision, so ask the study team if you are unsure whether something counts.
Blood cells that help blood clot. Too few raises the risk of bleeding and bruising. A usual adult range is about 150–400 × 10⁹/L (150,000–400,000 per µL); each lab has its own reference range.
The human immunodeficiency virus, which weakens the immune system.
Many studies now accept people whose HIV is controlled on treatment, judged by the viral load and the CD4 count. Check the limits this study sets.
Hepatitis B is a virus that infects the liver. These are separate tests: HBsAg positive usually means a current infection (a recent vaccination can briefly cause it too); total anti-HBc (HBcAb) positive means an infection now or in the past; HBV DNA measures how much virus is in the blood.
Some studies accept a past infection if HBV DNA is undetectable, sometimes with antiviral medicine during the study. Check what this study allows.
A condition in which the immune system attacks the body’s own tissues, such as rheumatoid arthritis, lupus, psoriasis, type 1 diabetes or inflammatory bowel disease.
Immunotherapy studies often leave out active autoimmune disease, and some name exceptions, such as thyroid disease on replacement hormone. Check the exceptions this study lists.

Dose Escalation: Escalating doses of ELU001 Dose Expansion: Recommended Dose for Expansion (or RP2D)
Drug: ELU001
Folic-acid functionalized C'Dot-Drug-Conjugate (FA-CDC)
Also known as: FA-CDC
Part 1 Dose Escalation: The Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD) and/or Recommended Phase 2 Dose (RP2D) of ELU001 for IV infusion in patients with over-expressing Folate Receptor Alpha tumors.
To determine the MTD and/or RP2D of ELU001 in patients with over-expressing Folate Receptor Alpha tumors. When at least 2 out of 6 patients in a given dose-level experience a dose-limiting toxicity (DLT), the dose is considered to have exceeded the MTD. The MTD, therefore, is defined as the previous highest tested dose of ELU001 that did not cause a DLT in the first cycle of treatment. In the event of emerging data during Part 1, the Sponsor may, in consultation with a dose-level safety review group, decide to define a recommended dose for expansion (in for Part 2) (RP2D) instead of the MTD. DLTs are defined as a treatment-emergent adverse event (TEAE) or abnormal laboratory value related to ELU001 treatment that result in a failure to meet the criteria for re-treatment.
Time frame: 28 days
Part 2 Dose Expansion: To determine overall response rate (ORR) (complete response [CR] + partial response [PR]) of ELU001 for IV infusion in patients with over-expressing Folate Receptor Alpha tumors, per RECIST v1.1.
Percentage of Participants with confirmed objective response as assessed by the investigator and per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) v1.1 CR is defined as the disappearance of all target or non-target lesions. PR is defined as at least 30 percent (%) decrease in the sum of the longest diameters (SoD) of target lesions, taking as reference the baseline SoD.
Time frame: First dose of study drug until responses of CR or PR, assessed up to 12 months.
Part 1 Dose Escalation: To determine overall response rate (ORR) (complete response [CR] + partial response [PR]) of ELU001 for IV infusion in patients with over-expressing Folate Receptor Alpha tumors, per RECIST v1.1.
Percentage of Participants with confirmed objective response as assessed by the investigator and per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) v1.1 CR is defined as the disappearance of all target or non-target lesions. PR is defined as at least 30 percent (%) decrease in the sum of the longest diameters (SoD) of target lesions, taking as reference the baseline SoD.
Time frame: First dose of study drug until responses of CR or PR, assessed up to 12 months.
Part 1 and Part 2: To determine Duration of Response (DOR) of ELU001 for IV infusion in patients with over-expressing Folate Receptor Alpha tumors.
Time Measurement: DOR will begin at the date that a response has been identified (stable disease, partial response, or complete response) until the date of progressive disease (PD). PD is defined of at least a 20% increase in the sum of the longest diameters of the target lesions from data of initial response.
Time frame: Date of first response (CR or PR) until the date of disease progression or up to 12 months, whichever occurs first.
Part 1 and Part 2: Number of participants with adverse events as assessed by CTCAE v5.0 Safety Evaluations.
The number of participants Frequency/severity of abnormalities in vital signs measurements, physical examination findings, changes in clinical laboratory parameters, and incidence of adverse events after taking ELU001.
Time frame: First dose of study drug up to 28 days after the last dose of study drug or up to 12 months, whichever occurs first.
