Talazoparib for advanced breast cancer with DNA repair defects
This trial studies talazoparib (a targeted pill) in people with advanced breast cancer whose tumors have problems repairing certain DNA damage. If your tumor has these specific “DNA repair” defects, the medicine may work better and stop the cancer from growing.
SeoulAges 19 years+ - NCT06365840RecruitingPhase 2
Study of IMC-001 for advanced tumors with high mutations
This trial tests an experimental drug called IMC-001 for people whose cancer has spread or is locally advanced and has a high number of genetic mutations (TMB-H). The drug aims to help the immune system fight cancer.
GoyangAges 19 years+ - NCT06550453RecruitingPhase 4
Immunotherapy plus chemo before surgery for RAS-mutated colorectal cancer
This trial tests a combination of immunotherapy (pembrolizumab) plus targeted therapy (bevacizumab) and chemotherapy (CapeOX) given before surgery for a specific type of locally advanced colorectal cancer. It is designed for patients whose tumors have a RAS mutation, are BRAF normal, and are microsatellite stable.
