This trial tests a new drug, LY4050784, for people with advanced solid tumors that have a specific change in a gene called SMARCA4 (BRG1). The study aims to see if the drug is safe and effective. It may be an option for those who have tried other treatments or have no standard options left.
Santa Monica, CaliforniaAges 18 years+ - NCT06561854RecruitingPhase 3
Comparing multiple myeloma treatment with and without dexamethasone
This trial tests whether adding dexamethasone to an antibody-based combination therapy works better for multiple myeloma that has come back after previous treatments. If you have had 1 to 3 prior therapies and are eligible for one of two standard drug regimens, this study may help find the best approach for you.
