Study Summary

This trial will investigate a new cancer treatment with ZEN003694 & niraparib to see if it can help patients with metastatic or recurrent solid cancer. Dose levels will be adjusted until it is safe and effective.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults with certain types of advanced solid tumors that have come back or spread and who've already tried standard treatments. They should be relatively healthy otherwise, able to take pills, not pregnant or breastfeeding, and not planning to get pregnant. People can't join if they're taking certain other drugs, have serious heart problems, uncontrolled high blood pressure, active infections like HIV or hepatitis B/C, brain metastases that aren't stable for at least 6 months, or any other major health issues.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study is testing the combination of two oral medications: Niraparib and ZEN003694. Patients will take these daily in cycles lasting 28 days to see what dose works best without causing too many side effects. The treatment continues until the cancer grows again or the side effects become too much.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Possible side effects from Niraparib include nausea, fatigue, blood cell count changes leading to increased infection risk or bleeding problems; ZEN003694 could cause similar issues but may also affect how your liver functions. Both drugs might interact with others you're taking.

How detrimental can the use of Niraparib be to an individual's health?

"Due to the initial nature of its clinical trials, niraparib has been rated a 1 on our safety scale. This indicates that there is minimal evidence for both efficacy and potential risks associated with this drug."

Answered by AI

Does this research initiative have room for new participants?

"The information posted on clinicaltrials.gov confirms that this particular medical trial is not open to new enrolments at the present moment.

Answered by AI

What are the main goals of this scientific inquiry?

"According to the documentation provided by Zenith Epigenetics, this clinical trial will measure Treatment-related Adverse Events (AE) and Serious Adverse Events (SAE), Duration of Response, Progression-Free Survival (PFS), and Overall Survival (OS). All outcomes are set within a twelve month evaluation period. Complete Response requires all target lesions to disappear with any pathological lymph nodes reduced in their short axis lower than 10 mm; Partial Response necessitates a 30% decrease from baseline sum diameters; Progressive Disease is signified by an increase in the sum diameter of target lesions greater than 20%, as well as 5mm absolute growth"
