Los Angeles, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT07749586RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of ARV-6723 alone or with pembrolizumab for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests an experimental drug called ARV-6723, alone or with another drug called pembrolizumab, for people with advanced solid tumors that have not responded to other treatments. The goal is to see if these combinations can help shrink tumors or slow their growth.
New York, New YorkAges 18 years+ - NCT07746713RecruitingPhase 1
Study of a new drug for advanced prostate cancer that has spread and progressed
This study tests a new drug called JNJ-98768111 in people with advanced prostate cancer that has spread and is no longer responding to current hormone-based treatments. It aims to see if the drug is safe and effective, and participants will receive the study drug while continuing some standard hormone therapy.
Sarasota, FloridaAges 18 years+ - NCT07746141RecruitingPhase 1
Study of BG-85738 for advanced solid tumors with RAS mutations
This trial is testing a new drug called BG-85738, which may target cancer cells that have a specific change (mutation) in the RAS gene. The goal is to see if it is safe and works against advanced or spreading solid tumors.
South Brisbane, QueenslandAges 18 years+ - NCT07744763RecruitingPhase 1/Phase 2
Study of SYS6041 for advanced solid tumors
This trial tests a new drug called SYS6041 for people with certain advanced cancers that have not responded to standard treatments. It targets a protein called FRα found on some tumor cells, which may help the drug attack the cancer more effectively.
