RP-3500 + PARP Inhibitors for Advanced Cancer
(ATTACC Trial)
What You Need to Know Before You Apply
What is the purpose of this trial?
This trial tests a new treatment approach for advanced solid tumors that haven't responded to standard treatments. It combines RP-3500 (camonsertib, an experimental treatment) with existing drugs, niraparib or olaparib, to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of this combination against cancer. The trial seeks to determine the best dose and understand how the drugs work together to combat tumors. People with advanced solid tumors who haven't had success with other treatments and can take oral medications might be suitable candidates. 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 requires that you stop taking any other anticancer therapies while participating. Additionally, you must not have had chemotherapy or certain other treatments within 10 days or 5 half-lives before starting the study.
Is there any evidence suggesting that this trial's treatments are likely to be safe?
Research has shown that RP-3500 (camonsertib) is generally safe when used alone, based on earlier studies. Patients have mostly tolerated it well, with manageable side effects. When combined with niraparib, a drug already approved for some ovarian cancers, the combination also appears safe. Past trials have demonstrated niraparib's effectiveness and safety.
For the combination of RP-3500 with olaparib, another approved cancer drug, early results suggest it is safe. Studies have shown that olaparib is well-tolerated by patients with advanced cancers. Both niraparib and olaparib have proven safety records, supporting their use with RP-3500.
In summary, combining RP-3500 with either niraparib or olaparib has been well-tolerated so far, with safety data supporting their use in ongoing research.12345Why are researchers excited about this trial's treatments?
Researchers are excited about RP-3500 (camonsertib) because it targets cancer cells with a new mechanism, potentially enhancing the effects of existing PARP inhibitors like niraparib and olaparib. Unlike traditional therapies that solely focus on blocking PARP enzymes, RP-3500 specifically inhibits a protein called ATR, which plays a crucial role in DNA repair in cancer cells. This dual-action approach could lead to more effective cancer cell destruction, even in cases where other treatments may have limited success. By combining RP-3500 with PARP inhibitors, this treatment aims to exploit vulnerabilities in cancer cells more thoroughly, offering hope for improved outcomes in advanced cancer cases.
What evidence suggests that this trial's treatments could be effective for advanced cancer?
This trial will evaluate the combination of RP-3500 (camonsertib) with either niraparib or olaparib for treating advanced cancers. Research has shown that these combinations yield promising results, with about 48% of patients experiencing positive effects. Specifically, patients with tumors resistant to platinum-based treatments had a 49% benefit rate, and 12% showed significant improvement. Additionally, camonsertib (RP-3500) alone resulted in a 13% tumor response rate in patients receiving effective doses. Both niraparib and olaparib have proven effective in treating ovarian cancer, supporting their potential when combined with RP-3500. These early findings suggest these treatments could help manage advanced cancers.13678
Are You a Good Fit for This Trial?
Adults over 18 with advanced solid tumors that no longer respond to standard treatments can join. They must have certain tumor biomarkers, be able to take oral meds, and not be pregnant. People who've had recent cancer treatments or surgery, other active cancers, brain metastases, high blood pressure, or a history of specific blood disorders cannot participate.Inclusion Criteria
