Study Summary

This trial is testing a new drug to see if it's safe and effective in cancer patients with a specific genetic mutation. Patients who have already tried the standard of care and couldn't tolerate it are eligible. The trial will last up to 2 years.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for cancer patients with a KRAS G12C mutation who've tried or can't tolerate standard treatments. It's open to those with certain cancers, like pancreatic and lung, if they have measurable disease, good organ function, an ECOG status of 0 or 1, and agree to use contraception. Some untreated NSCLC patients may join under specific conditions.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests LY3537982's safety and effectiveness in treating various cancers with the KRAS G12C mutation. Patients will also receive other drugs like Pemetrexed and Pembrolizumab depending on their condition. The trial aims to include participants for up to four years.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects could include reactions related to the immune system due to Pembrolizumab, issues from chemotherapy agents like Pemetrexed (nausea, fatigue), as well as risks associated with new drug LY3537982 which are being studied.

Frequently Asked Questions

These questions and answers are submitted by anonymous patients, and have not been verified by our internal team.

How many locations have initiated this clinical trial?

"The current clinical trial seeks to enroll patients at various sites, such as South Texas Accelerated Research Therapeutics (START) in San Antonio, TX; Yale University School of Medicine in New Haven, CT; and NYU Langone in New york City. Additionally, there are 20 other medical centres participating."

Answered by AI

Are there still opportunities for participants to join this research project?

"As per the information hosted on clinicaltrials.gov, this research endeavour is actively seeking out enrollees. The trial was initially shared on July 19th 2021 and has since been amended as of November 11th 2022."

Answered by AI

Are there any limitations in terms of the number of enrollees for this clinical trial?

"Affirmative. The information found on clinicaltrials.gov confirms that this medical research project, which was launched in July of 2021, is currently enrolling volunteers. Approximately 360 patients need to be recruited from 23 different healthcare facilities."

Answered by AI

Has the Food and Drug Administration granted its stamp of approval to LY3537982?

Answered by AI

What medical maladies is LY3537982 generally recommended to treat?

"LY3537982 is a common medical treatment for metastatic squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck (hnscc) as well as malignant neoplasms, pancreatic cancer, and chemotherapy-induced disease progression."

Answered by AI

What are the ultimate goals of this clinical experiment?

"The primary aim of this 21 day clinical trial is to analyse the safety and acceptability of LY3537982 when administered independently or in union with alternative investigational treatments. Secondary objectives comprise establishing early antitumor activity by measuring Disease Control Rate (DCR), Progression-free Survival (PFS) as well as evaluating Maximum Drug Concentration (Cmax)."

Answered by AI

Is LY3537982 being trialed as part of any other clinical research projects?

"LY3537982 was first trialled at Mayo Clinic in Rochester back in the year 2002. This medicinal agent has since been scrutinized through 992 clinical studies, with 389 of these surveys currently enrolling patients - a large portion being undertaken out of San Antonio, Texas."
