Study Summary

This trial is testing a new drug (ETC-1922159) for safety, how well it works, and what the best dose is. The trial has four parts, A-D. Parts A and A Extension have been completed and showed that the drug is safe and had some effect on the disease. In Part B, they will test different doses of the drug to find the best dose, and in Part C they will test the drug in combination with another drug.

Who is the study for?
Adults with advanced solid tumors that are not suitable for standard treatments. They must have measurable disease, a life expectancy of at least 3 months, and adequate organ function. Specific groups require certain genetic features or tumor types like MSS-CRC without specific gene fusions or MSS/pMMR ovarian and endometrial cancer.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The trial is testing ETC-1922159 alone and combined with Pembrolizumab in patients with advanced solid tumors. It's divided into parts: initial dose finding, safety evaluation with bone protective treatment, combination therapy dosing, and expansion to assess long-term effects.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects include typical reactions to cancer therapies such as fatigue, digestive issues, blood disorders; specific risks related to the drugs being tested will be monitored closely given this is an early-phase trial assessing safety.
