This trial tests CBL0137, a drug that blocks signals inside cancer cells, in patients whose solid tumors, including CNS tumors or lymphoma, have returned or not responded to treatment. By interfering with the cells' internal communication, the drug aims to stop their growth and cause them to die. CBL0137, also known as Curaxin, has shown antitumor activity in multiple cancers, including glioblastoma, renal cell carcinoma, melanoma, neuroblastoma, and small cell lung cancer.
