IDE196 Combinations for Solid Tumors
What You Need to Know Before You Apply
What is the purpose of this trial?
This trial tests a new treatment called IDE196 (also known as Darovasertib or LXS196), either alone or with other drugs, for individuals with specific solid tumors, such as certain types of melanoma and colorectal cancer. The goal is to determine if IDE196 is safe and effective in shrinking tumors with specific genetic mutations. The trial will evaluate the treatment's effectiveness and side effects to identify the best dose for future studies. Individuals with solid tumors featuring GNAQ or GNA11 mutations or PRKC fusions, who have experienced tumor growth after treatment, might be suitable candidates for this trial. As a Phase 1, Phase 2 trial, this research aims to understand how the treatment works in people and measure its effectiveness in an initial, smaller group, offering participants a chance to contribute to groundbreaking cancer treatment advancements.
Will I have to stop taking my current medications?
The trial protocol does not specify if you must stop taking your current medications, but it mentions that treatment with prohibited medications that cannot be discontinued prior to study entry is an exclusion criterion. It would be best to discuss your current medications with the trial team to determine if any need to be stopped.
Is there any evidence suggesting that this trial's treatments are likely to be safe?
Research has shown that IDE196 is under investigation for treating certain solid tumors, particularly those with GNAQ or GNA11 mutations. Early studies suggest that IDE196 alone is generally safe for patients, with manageable side effects.
When combined with crizotinib, early research also appears promising. The combination seems safe, as most participants did not experience severe side effects.
Similarly, studies of IDE196 with binimetinib indicate that this combination is well-tolerated, with no severe side effects reported.
These treatments remain in the testing phase. The trial is in its early stages, focusing on determining safe dosage levels to ensure the treatment can be safely administered to more people in future studies. Prospective participants can find reassurance in the positive initial safety results.12345Why are researchers excited about this trial's treatments?
Unlike standard treatments for solid tumors, which often include chemotherapy or immunotherapy, IDE196 targets specific genetic mutations like GNAQ/11 and PRKC fusions found in certain tumors. Researchers are excited because IDE196 potentially offers a more personalized approach, aiming directly at the genetic drivers of the cancer. Moreover, when combined with other drugs like crizotinib or binimetinib, IDE196 may enhance treatment effectiveness by tackling multiple pathways that cancer cells use to grow. This combination strategy could lead to more robust responses and possibly improve outcomes for patients with these hard-to-treat tumors.
What evidence suggests that this trial's treatments could be effective for solid tumors?
Research has shown that IDE196, also known as darovasertib, may help treat certain solid tumors, such as metastatic uveal melanoma. This trial studies IDE196 in various treatment arms. Some participants will receive IDE196 alone, while others will receive it with crizotinib or binimetinib. Studies have found that IDE196 can shrink tumors in patients with specific genetic changes. When combined with crizotinib, IDE196 showed early positive results and proved generally safe for patients. Additionally, when paired with binimetinib, IDE196 led to better response rates and more tumor shrinkage compared to past data for similar conditions. These findings suggest that IDE196 could be effective for patients with tumors that have GNAQ/11 mutations or PRKC fusions.13567

Are You a Good Fit for This Trial?
This trial is for adults with certain solid tumors, including metastatic uveal melanoma, skin cancer, and colorectal cancer that have specific genetic mutations or fusions. Participants must have had prior treatment with a MEK inhibitor (except for Binimetinib Combination), measurable disease, good performance status (ECOG ≤1), life expectancy over 3 months, adequate organ function and cardiac function (for Binimetinib Combination), and agree to use contraception. Exclusions include symptomatic brain metastases, pregnancy/breastfeeding women, recent thromboembolic events or surgeries.Inclusion Criteria
