Study Summary

This trial studies a drug to treat solid tumors that are not responding to standard treatments or for which no standard treatment exists. The drug may stop tumor cells from growing. #Cancer #ClinicalTrial

Who is the study for?
This trial is for patients with solid tumors that haven't responded to standard treatments or have no standard options left. They must be able to consent, have a life expectancy over 3 months, and an ECOG status of <=2. Participants need adequate blood counts, organ function, and agree to use contraception. Those with recent heart issues, active breastfeeding, uncontrolled illnesses or taking other investigational drugs can't join.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests the safety and optimal dosage of COH29 in patients with advanced solid tumors. COH29 aims to block ribonucleotide reductase which may stop tumor growth. The trial includes lab biomarker analysis and pharmacological studies to understand how the drug works in the body.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects of COH29 are not fully known as this is a Phase I trial determining safety; however, they could include typical reactions seen with cancer therapies such as fatigue, nausea, liver enzyme changes, blood count variations and possibly others based on its mechanism.
