Study Summary

This trial will study RBN-2397, a new drug that inhibits an enzyme called PARP7, which is switched on by cancer stresses. Cancer cells use PARP7 to hide from the immune system, but RBN-2397 has been shown in animal and human studies to inhibit tumor growth and also shuts down the "don't kill me" signal the tumor is sending to evade the immune system. This trial will study whether RBN-2397 in combination with pembrolizumab (a PD-1 inhibitor) can restore the response to treatment in patients with SCCL who have been previously treated with a PD-

Frequently Asked Questions

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

Are new participants being accepted for this investigation currently?

"Affirmative, according to clinicaltrials.gov this trial is still enrolling patients. It was created on March 15th 2022 and its most recent update occurred November 13th of the same year. This research requires 50 participants to be drawn from 4 distinct sites."

Answered by AI

What indications is RBN-2397 commonly employed to ameliorate?

"RBN-2397 is a common remedy for malignant neoplasms, but it can also have positive results when used to treat unresectable melanoma, microsatellite instability high cases or patients experiencing disease progression after chemotherapy."

Answered by AI

Are individuals aged 80 or higher being recruited for this trial?

"As per the requirements of this medical trial, potential participants must be aged 18-99."

Answered by AI

What is the current sample population size of this experiment?

"This trial requires fifty participants that satisfy a given set of eligibility requirements. Patients can join from various medical centres, such as Sarah Cannon Research Institute in Nashville or Cancer Treatment Centers of America in Newnan."

Answered by AI

In which sites can participants access this investigation?

"Currently, this trial is running at 4 locations throughout the nation: Nashville, Newnan and Newark being three of them. To decrease travelling demands for participants, it's recommended to choose a facility close-by if you decide to join."

Answered by AI

What is the intended outcome of this medical experiment?

"According to Ribon Therapeutics, Inc., the main target evaluated over 78 weeks of treatment is determining a recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) for Phase 1b. Additionally, this study will be observing secondary objectives including the peak concentration (Cmax), time until maximum plasma concentration (Tmax), and terminal half-life (T1/2)."

Answered by AI

Am I eligible to volunteer for this medical experiment?

"This medical experiment is looking for 50 individuals between the ages of 18 and 99 with carcinoma. To be eligible, these people must have already undergone therapy involving a platinum doublet combined with an ICI such as anti-PD1/anti PD-L1 or CTLA4 inhibitors either separately or in combination chemo + checkpoint inhibitor, plus possess an ECOG performance status score of 0 to 1."

Answered by AI

Has RBN-2397 been studied in any other research investigations?

"RBN-2397 was initially explored a decade ago at the City of Hope. This compound has been subject to 249 completed studies and continues to be studied in 961 active clinical trials, with several sites based out of Nashville, Tennessee."
