IPN01195 for Cancer
What You Need to Know Before You Apply
What is the purpose of this trial?
This trial tests a new drug, IPN01195, as a potential cancer treatment to determine the appropriate dose and assess its safety and effectiveness for adults with advanced solid tumors. These tumors have spread to nearby tissues or other body parts. Participants should have a solid tumor with specific genetic changes and no other standard treatment options available. As a Phase 1 trial, participants will be among the first to receive this treatment, aiding researchers in understanding its effects in people.
Will I have to stop taking my current medications?
The trial requires a washout period (time without taking certain medications) of at least 28 days for any prior anti-cancer therapy, including chemotherapy, targeted agents, and radiotherapy. If you are on a medication with a short half-life, the washout can be shorter but not less than 5 times the half-life. Additionally, you cannot be on systemic corticosteroids or other immunosuppressive medications within 2 weeks before starting the study.
Is there any evidence suggesting that IPN01195 is likely to be safe for humans?
Research shows that IPN01195 is in the early stages of testing to assess its safety and tolerability. These are the first studies involving humans, so information remains limited. However, reaching this stage indicates that scientists have conducted lab or animal tests and found it promising enough for human trials.
Researchers are examining how the drug behaves in the body and monitoring for side effects. Since it's early in development, complete safety details are not yet available. This phase focuses on identifying safe dosage levels and observing any reactions. Moving to human trials is a positive step, and participants are closely monitored to ensure their safety as more information is gathered.12345Why do researchers think this study treatment might be promising for cancer?
Researchers are excited about IPN01195 because it offers a novel approach to treating cancer. Unlike standard treatments like chemotherapy and radiation, which often attack both healthy and cancerous cells, IPN01195 is designed to target cancer cells more precisely, potentially reducing side effects and improving patient outcomes. Additionally, its mechanism of action may enable it to work in cases where other treatments have failed, providing new hope for those with resistant forms of cancer. This targeted approach could revolutionize how we manage and treat cancer, making it a promising option in the field of oncology.
What evidence suggests that IPN01195 might be an effective treatment for advanced solid tumours?
Research has shown that IPN01195 is under investigation as a potential treatment for advanced solid tumors. This trial involves two parts: Part A focuses on dose escalation to determine the appropriate dose level, and Part B randomizes participants to one of two doses of interest once the PADR is determined. Although the effectiveness in people is still under study, early research aims to find the right dose and understand how the drug functions in the body. The drug targets specific pathways that aid tumor growth, potentially slowing or stopping cancer spread. Initial results suggest it could provide a new treatment option for cancers that have metastasized. However, more information is needed to fully understand its effects on patients.14678

Are You a Good Fit for This Trial?
This trial is for adults with advanced solid tumors, which means cancers in organs or tissues that have spread. Specific eligibility criteria are not provided, but typically participants must meet certain health standards and not have conditions that would exclude them.Inclusion Criteria
Exclusion Criteria
Timeline for a Trial Participant
Screening
Participants are screened for eligibility to participate in the trial
Treatment Phase I Part A (Dose Escalation)
Participants receive escalating doses of IPN01195 to determine the dose range showing activity on the tumour that can be tolerated
Treatment Phase I Part B (Dose Confirmation)
Participants receive either a low or high dose of IPN01195 to assess tumour response and safety
Follow-up
Participants are monitored for safety and effectiveness after treatment
Phase II Extension
