Study Summary

This trial will test new combos of drugs to stop/shrink solid tumors returned after treatment. Eligible people aged 18+ with solid tumors can take capsules at home & have clinic visits for tests & scans.

Who is the study for?
Adults over 18 with advanced solid tumors that have worsened after treatment or for which no standard treatment exists. They must be able to swallow pills, not have severe infections like AIDS, and should have stable vital organ functions. People with certain heart conditions, those on specific drugs that affect the trial medications, smokers, pregnant or breastfeeding women are excluded.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study is testing combinations of oral capsules: Erlotinib with either Lenvatinib or Axitinib in adults to see if these can stop tumor growth or shrink them. Participants will take these medications daily at home and attend clinic visits for monitoring through various tests including imaging scans.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects may include diarrhea, rash, high blood pressure due to the tyrosine kinase inhibitors (Lenvatinib and Axitinib), as well as liver function abnormalities and reactions related to lung health from Erlotinib.

Treatment Details

Study Objectives

Outcome measures can provide a clearer picture of what you can expect from a treatment.
Primary outcome measures

Secondary outcome measures
To evaluate the plasma pharmacokinetic profiles of erlotinib and either lenvatinib or axitinib when used in combination
