LY3214996 + Cetuximab / Abemaciclib for Colorectal Cancer
Study Summary
This trial is investigating the side effects and best dosage of LY3214996 when given with cetuximab to treat patients with unresectable and/or metastatic colorectal cancer. Cetuximab is an antibody that may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread, while LY3214996 and abemaciclib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.

Frequently Asked Questions
How many people can sign up for this experiment at most?
"That is correct. Based on the information available on clinicaltrials.gov, this study appears to be actively enrolling patients. The trial was first posted on December 2nd 2020 and has since been updated January 24th of this year. Currently, the study is looking for 46 individuals at a single location."
What are some of the approved indications for cetuximab?
"Cetuximab is frequently used to treat metastatic squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck (hnscc). However, it can also be given as treatment for other conditions like squamous cell carcinoma if a diagnosis test approved by the FDA suggests there is a high chance of recurrence."
Does this experiment represent a new way of testing treatments?
"Cetuximab has a long history, with the first clinical trial being conducted in 2005. Since then, it's been approved for Phase 2 drug trials and there are currently 230 live trials in 51 countries."
Are we still looking for volunteers for this experiment?
"That is correct. The listing on clinicaltrials.gov affirms that the trial is still ongoing and looking for 46 participants at a single site."
Could you elaborate on other times Cetuximab has been tested in a clinical setting?
"There are currently 230 clinical trials studying Cetuximab, with 46 of them in Phase 3. Some of these research studies are happening in Dresden and Arizona; however, there are 10638 total locations for these investigations."
