ISM3091 for Solid Tumors
What You Need to Know Before You Apply
What is the purpose of this trial?
This trial aims to test the safety and effectiveness of a new treatment, XL309 (also known as ISM3091), used alone or with another drug, olaparib, in individuals with advanced solid tumors. Researchers seek to understand how the body processes XL309 and its effects on tumors. The trial is recruiting participants with specific types of advanced cancers, such as breast or ovarian cancer, that have not responded to standard treatments or have particular genetic traits. Those dealing with advanced cancer that is difficult to treat and have specific genetic mutations may find this trial suitable. As a Phase 1 trial, this research focuses on understanding how the treatment works in people, offering participants the opportunity to be among the first to receive this new treatment.
Will I have to stop taking my current medications?
The trial protocol does not specify if you must stop taking your current medications, but it does require a waiting period after certain treatments before starting the study. For example, you must wait 3 weeks after chemotherapy or small molecule-targeted therapy and 1 week after radiation therapy before beginning the trial.
Is there any evidence suggesting that this trial's treatments are likely to be safe?
Research shows that ISM3091 is being tested for safety in people with advanced solid tumors. As this is the first human trial of ISM3091, no previous human data exists. The current Phase 1 trial examines how well people tolerate ISM3091 alone and in combination with another drug, olaparib.
This phase typically assesses potential side effects and their severity. ISM3091 remains under study and lacks FDA approval for any conditions, so its safety profile is still being determined. Participants contribute to understanding its safety and potential side effects.
In summary, the trial focuses on the safety and tolerability of ISM3091. Participants play a crucial role in helping researchers gather this important information.12345Why are researchers excited about this trial's treatments?
ISM3091 is unique because it targets advanced solid tumors with a new approach, potentially offering an alternative to standard chemotherapy and targeted therapies like monoclonal antibodies. Unlike most treatments that often rely on these conventional mechanisms, ISM3091 is being tested both as a single agent and in combination with olaparib, a PARP inhibitor known for its role in treating cancers with specific DNA repair deficiencies. Researchers are excited about ISM3091 because its novel combination approach might enhance treatment efficacy and overcome resistance that often develops with existing therapies.
What evidence suggests that this trial's treatments could be effective for solid tumors?
Research has shown that ISM3091 might help treat advanced solid tumors. This new drug targets specific parts of cancer cells, offering a promising option for patients. In this trial, participants will receive ISM3091 either alone or with olaparib. Early studies suggest that ISM3091, when used alone, may shrink tumors or halt their growth. Combined with olaparib, a drug already used in some cancer treatments, it might enhance effectiveness. Although more research is needed, early findings offer hope for treating difficult cancers.14678
Are You a Good Fit for This Trial?
This trial is for adults over 18 with advanced breast, ovarian, or prostate cancer that's worsened after standard treatment or when no other therapy is suitable. They must be in relatively good health otherwise, understand the study and agree to participate by signing a consent form.Inclusion Criteria
