PF-07826390 for Cancer
What You Need to Know Before You Apply
What is the purpose of this trial?
The trial aims to determine if the new treatment, PF-07826390, is safe and effective for individuals with advanced or metastatic solid tumors, such as certain lung, colon, or kidney cancers. Participants will receive this treatment alone or with another medicine, sasanlimab, to identify the most effective option. The study seeks individuals whose cancer has not responded to previous treatments or has spread. Participants should be prepared for weekly visits for up to four years to monitor progress. As a Phase 1 trial, this research focuses on understanding how the treatment works in people, offering participants the chance to be among the first to receive it.
Will I have to stop taking my current medications?
The trial requires that you stop any systemic anticancer therapy at least 4 weeks before starting the study medication. However, the protocol does not specify about other medications, so it's best to discuss your current medications with the study team.
Is there any evidence suggesting that this trial's treatments are likely to be safe?
Research shows that PF-07826390, a new cancer treatment, is still under safety evaluation. As it is in the early testing stages, detailed safety information is not yet available. This phase focuses on understanding how the treatment works in the body and whether any side effects are manageable.
Sasanlimab, when combined with PF-07826390, is also under study. Previous research on sasanlimab alone assessed its safety for treating bladder cancer. However, using it with PF-07826390 is new, and researchers are now evaluating the tolerability of this combination.
In summary, both PF-07826390 and its combination with sasanlimab are still under investigation to ensure they are safe and tolerable. This trial aims to gather more information about their safety.12345Why are researchers excited about this trial's treatments?
Researchers are excited about PF-07826390 because it represents a novel approach in cancer treatment, differentiating itself from the standard of care like chemotherapy and immunotherapy. Most current treatments target cancer cells directly or enhance the immune system's ability to attack them. However, PF-07826390 might offer a new mechanism of action that could complement existing therapies. Its combination with sasanlimab, an innovative agent that could further boost immune response, is particularly promising. Additionally, the treatment's potential to be effective in various cancers, such as non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), colorectal cancer (MSS CRC), and renal cell carcinoma (RCC), highlights its versatility and broad applicability.
What evidence suggests that this trial's treatments could be effective for cancer?
Research shows that PF-07826390 is still under testing, and its effectiveness remains uncertain. This experimental drug targets specific proteins that may aid cancer cell growth. In this trial, some participants will receive PF-07826390 as monotherapy, while others will receive it with another drug, sasanlimab, which has shown promise in other research. Specifically, sasanlimab has been effective in slowing cancer progression in some cases. Additionally, one study arm combines PF-07826390 with standard-of-care treatments. The goal of these combinations is to determine if they are more effective against solid tumors like non-small cell lung cancer, colorectal cancer, and kidney cancer. Although more results are pending, early studies suggest that combining sasanlimab with other treatments can significantly improve outcomes in certain cancers.12678

Are You a Good Fit for This Trial?
This trial is for adults with advanced or metastatic solid tumors, including specific types of lung, colorectal, and kidney cancers. Participants must have tried certain standard treatments without success or be unable to tolerate them. They should have at least one measurable tumor lesion and be able to provide tissue samples.Inclusion Criteria
