MRG003 plus pucotenlimab for advanced thyroid cancer (ATC/PDTC)
Part of Cancer, Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This trial tests two drugs together: MRG003 (a targeted therapy that delivers chemo directly to EGFR-positive cancer cells) and pucotenlimab (an immunotherapy that helps your immune system attack the cancer). It is for people with a rare and aggressive thyroid cancer (ATC or PDTC) whose tumors have the EGFR protein and have grown despite previous treatment.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You must have a type of thyroid cancer called anaplastic (ATC) or poorly differentiated (PDTC) that has come back or spread and cannot be removed by surgery.
- Your tumor must test positive for a protein called EGFR (more than 10% of cells have it).
- You must have at least one tumor that can be measured on a scan and that has grown despite previous treatment.
- You must be in good overall health (ECOG score 0 or 1) and have adequate organ function (heart, liver, kidneys, blood).
- You cannot have had a certain type of targeted chemo called an ADC before, or have unstable brain metastases, or an active autoimmune disease requiring strong immune-suppressing drugs.

This trial tests an investigational drug called MRG003 added to your current treatment for advanced thyroid cancer that has stopped responding. It may help people with specific types of thyroid cancer and certain tumor markers.
This trial tests a new drug combination (MRG003 with or without putrelimab) for people with advanced salivary gland cancer that has EGFR protein. It aims to see if the treatment is safe and helps shrink tumors.
This trial tests a targeted drug (tunlametinib) for advanced thyroid cancer that has a specific genetic change called NRAS mutation. It may help people whose cancer is not responding to standard treatments like radioactive iodine.
This trial tests a combination of two drugs for a cancer that doctors cannot find where it started (cancer of unknown primary). The drugs target a protein called HER2, which is found on the surface of some cancer cells, to help stop the cancer from growing.
This trial tests a new drug called becotatug vedotin (MRG003) for patients with advanced liver cancer that has progressed despite previous immunotherapy. The drug is designed to target cancer cells while potentially causing less harm to healthy tissue.
This study tests a new drug called MRG003 against two other treatments (cetuximab or methotrexate) for people with a type of head and neck cancer that has come back or spread and has not responded to standard treatments. The goal is to see if the new drug can better control the cancer and improve outcomes.
