ART6043 for Metastatic Cancer
What You Need to Know Before You Apply
What is the purpose of this trial?
This trial tests a new treatment called ART6043 for individuals with advanced or metastatic cancer. Researchers aim to assess the safety and effectiveness of ART6043, both alone and in combination with another drug, olaparib. The trial includes different groups, such as those with specific types of breast cancer and those who might benefit from PARPi drugs, which target cancer cells. Ideal candidates for this trial have advanced cancer, have discontinued other treatments for at least three weeks, and possess specific genetic markers from previous tests. As a Phase 1 trial, the research focuses on understanding how the treatment works in people, offering participants the chance to be among the first to receive this new treatment.
Will I have to stop taking my current medications?
The trial requires that you stop taking all previous chemotherapeutic agents, non-hormonal targeted therapy, or investigational drugs for at least 21 days or 5 half-lives before starting the study. Endocrine and hormonal therapies for cancer must be stopped at least 7 days before the study, unless you are being treated for prostate cancer.
Is there any evidence suggesting that this trial's treatments are likely to be safe?
Research has shown that ART6043 is being carefully studied for safety and tolerance in people. Early results suggest that daily use of ART6043 alone does not cause serious problems for most individuals, indicating a lack of severe side effects. However, specific details about any side effects remain unavailable.
Researchers are also examining how ART6043 interacts with another drug, olaparib. Olaparib is already used to treat cancer, providing some knowledge about its safety. The combination of these drugs is still under investigation to ensure their safe use together.
These studies are in the early stages, focusing on ensuring the treatment's safety for patients. The trials aim to determine the right dose and identify any side effects. Researchers closely monitor participants' health and well-being throughout the study.12345Why are researchers excited about this trial's treatments?
Researchers are excited about ART6043 for metastatic cancer because it offers a new approach by combining with olaparib, a PARP inhibitor. Unlike standard treatments like chemotherapy, which broadly attack cancer cells, ART6043 is designed to work more precisely. It's particularly promising as it targets cancer cells with specific genetic mutations, potentially leading to more effective and personalized treatment options. Additionally, ART6043's combination with olaparib might enhance the effectiveness of treatment in patients with BRCA-mutated, HER2-negative breast cancer, offering hope for better outcomes.
What evidence suggests that this trial's treatments could be effective for metastatic cancer?
Research has shown that ART6043 could help treat certain cancers by targeting a specific enzyme essential for cancer cell survival. In this trial, some participants will receive ART6043 as monotherapy, while others will receive it in combination with olaparib. Early results suggest that ART6043, particularly when combined with olaparib, might effectively weaken tumor cells with certain genetic changes. One study indicated that patients with advanced solid tumors benefited from this combination. Olaparib blocks a protein involved in DNA repair and has been effective in slowing cancer growth. Although more research is needed, these early findings are promising for its potential use in advanced cancer.13678
Are You a Good Fit for This Trial?
This trial is for adults with advanced or metastatic solid tumors who've had prior taxane treatment, unless not medically advised. They should have an ECOG performance status of 0-2, adequate organ function, and a life expectancy of at least 12 weeks. It's also for those with specific genetic mutations in DDR genes and who consider PARPi therapy suitable. Pregnant individuals, those with certain gastrointestinal issues, brain metastases (unless treated), allergies to study drugs, MDS/AML or features suggestive of these conditions are excluded.Inclusion Criteria
