TusaRav-QT Trial Summary

This trialtests a new treatment for metastatic cancer in the colon, lungs, and stomach/esophagus. Patients have no other options.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults with metastatic colorectal, non-squamous non-small cell lung, or gastric/gastroesophageal junction cancers without standard treatment options. Participants must have measurable disease and be in good physical condition (ECOG 0-1). They should agree to use effective contraception and not have any significant illnesses or unresolved treatment-related toxicities that could affect their participation.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests Tusamitamab Ravtansine's effect on the heart's electrical activity (QTc interval) in patients with specific advanced solid tumors. It's an open-label, single-arm Phase 1 trial conducted across multiple centers internationally, focusing on those who've exhausted other treatments.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
While specific side effects of Tusamitamab Ravtansine are not listed here, common side effects for cancer drugs like this may include nausea, fatigue, diarrhea, liver problems and potential heart issues such as changes in the QTc interval which will be closely monitored during the trial.
