TYRA-300 for Bladder Cancer
(SURF301 Trial)
What You Need to Know Before You Apply
What is the purpose of this trial?
This trial examines a new treatment called TYRA-300, a potential drug for individuals with certain types of advanced bladder and other solid tumors. Researchers aim to determine if TYRA-300 is safe and effective and how it moves through the body. The trial includes different parts to test TYRA-300 at various doses. Suitable candidates have an advanced solid tumor with specific FGFR3 gene changes and have exhausted all standard treatments. As a Phase 1 trial, this research focuses on understanding how TYRA-300 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 information does not specify whether you need to stop taking your current medications. It's best to discuss this with the trial coordinators or your doctor.
Is there any evidence suggesting that TYRA-300 is likely to be safe for humans?
Research has shown that TYRA-300 was safe in earlier studies. Early results indicate that people tolerate TYRA-300 well. In studies with patients who have FGFR3-altered cancers, 54.5% experienced tumor shrinkage, and all patients maintained disease control with doses of 90 mg per day or more. This suggests the treatment is generally safe, with manageable side effects. As a daily pill, it is easy to take. While these results are encouraging, it is important to note that the study remains in its early stages, and further research will provide a clearer picture of its safety.12345
Why do researchers think this study treatment might be promising for bladder cancer?
TYRA-300 is unique because it is administered orally, simplifying treatment compared to some current options for bladder cancer, which often involve intravenous delivery or surgical procedures. Unlike traditional therapies that target broad cancer cell functions, TYRA-300 is designed to target specific molecular pathways, potentially offering a more precise attack on cancer cells while sparing healthy ones. Researchers are excited because this targeted approach could lead to fewer side effects and improved outcomes for patients.
What evidence suggests that TYRA-300 might be an effective treatment for bladder cancer?
Research shows that TYRA-300 has promising early results for treating cancers with changes in the FGFR3 gene. Previous studies found that patients generally tolerated TYRA-300 well, with few side effects related to other FGFR issues. Early data suggests that the treatment may be effective against tumors, particularly in the bladder and urinary tract. Participants in these studies experienced encouraging safety and initial effectiveness. Overall, TYRA-300 seems to offer a hopeful option for those with advanced cancers linked to FGFR3 changes.16789

Are You a Good Fit for This Trial?
This trial is for adults with advanced solid tumors, including bladder cancer, that have run out of standard treatment options. They must be in relatively good health (ECOG ≤1) and have a specific FGFR3 gene alteration. Children over 12 can join Phase 2 if they're mostly healthy (KPS >70). Pregnant or breastfeeding individuals and those planning to conceive are excluded.Inclusion Criteria
