Study Summary

This trial is evaluating if a drug, ZEN003694, could be an effective treatment for advanced squamous cell lung cancer with a mutation in the NSD3 gene. It works by blocking proteins that may counter the effect of NSD3 on tumor growth.

Who is the study for?
Adults with advanced squamous cell lung cancer and NSD3 gene mutation can join this trial. They must have had prior chemotherapy and immunotherapy, be able to swallow capsules, and not be pregnant or breastfeeding. Stable brain metastases are okay. Participants need proper organ function, no recent heart attacks or surgeries, and cannot have HIV/HBV/HCV or other significant health issues.Check my eligibility
