Temporary halt TH-126851
- Halt date
- 2026-03-27
- Member states concerned
- Hungary
- Publication date
- 2026-04-01
- Reason
- Safety related (clinical or pre-clinical results)
- Explanation
- The primary reason for implementing the Temporary Halt is a safety related decision.
The temporary halt is applicable for Halt screening activities, Halt screening and enrollment activities and Screen fail subjects in screening. Subjects on treatment may continue treatment, provided requirements in the DIL are met.
This temporary halt is related to an USM which has been submitted on 31 March 2026 (Business key: US-126559, Sponsor internal identifier SIMS ID: 27146) - Follow-up measures
- At this time, Amgen has not determined whether there is a causal relationship between
tarlatamab and YL201 and the fatal case of pneumonitis described above. A comprehensive
safety assessment is currently in progress. Based on the details of this event, Amgen will take
the following actions:
- Temporary halt of all screening and enrollment activities on study 20240124 with immediate
effect. In the interim, participants currently receiving study investigational products
(tarlatamab and/or YL201) may continue treatment per protocol at the discretion of the
principal investigator, provided the investigator determines that the potential benefit
outweighs the potential risk. The risks and benefits of continuing treatment must be clearly
discussed with the participant and appropriately documented before administration of the
next dose of investigational products.
- Amgen will perform a comprehensive safety evaluation of the pneumonitis event, including
review of individual case safety reports, aggregate safety data from Study 20240124, and
other relevant available information, to assess whether there may be a causal relationship
between tarlatamab and YL201, and pneumonitis. The outcome of this assessment,
together with any additional actions deemed necessary, including but not limited to updates
to the informed consent form, will be communicated to investigators in a follow-up letter.
- A protocol amendment is not required at this time given that the protocol includes
appropriate management guidelines for pneumonitis. - Benefit-risk balance changed
- Yes
- Treatment stopped
- No
