Study Summary

This trial studies a drug called adavosertib to see how well it works in treating patients with SETD2-deficient solid tumors.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults with advanced solid tumors that have spread and have a SETD2 mutation. They must have tried at least one therapy, be able to swallow pills, not be pregnant or breastfeeding, use contraception if fertile, and meet certain health criteria like specific blood cell counts.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The trial is testing Adavosertib's effectiveness on patients with SETD2-deficient advanced solid tumors. It's a phase II study where the drug aims to block enzymes needed for tumor growth.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects of Adavosertib may include fatigue, nausea, low blood cell counts leading to increased infection risk or bleeding problems, and other common chemotherapy-related reactions.

Frequently Asked Questions

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

Are there any other research studies that have utilized Adavosertib?

"Currently, 17 trials related to Adavosertib are underway. None of which have progressed to Phase 3 yet, although a vast number of clinics and medical centres (1675) across the globe are involved in running these tests. The majority of these sites reside in Houston, Texas."

Answered by AI

Are any participants currently being accepted for this research experiment?

"According to clinicaltrials.gov records, this trial is not in the process of recruiting at present. The study was originally posted on May 10th 2018 and last updated September 1st 2022; however, there are presently 4782 other active trials enrolling participants."

Answered by AI

What is the aggregate size of the population participating in this clinical trial?

"At this time, the trial is no longer actively recruiting participants. Inception was May 10th 2018 and last edited on September 1st 2022. For those looking for other studies related to carcinoma, there are currently 4765 active trials available; moreover 17 clinical trials involving Adavosertib require participants as well."

Answered by AI

What deleterious effects can be caused by taking Adavosertib?

"Our team at Power has rated Adavosertib's safety a 2, as there is only limited clinical data supporting its security. The Phase 2 trial does not yet have evidence of the drug's efficacy."

Answered by AI

Are there plentiful Canadian facilities conducting this experiment?

"Patients are currently being recruited for this clinical trial at 16 different medical sites, such as University of Chicago Medicine-Orland Park in Orland Park, University of Pittsburgh Cancer Institute (UPCI) in Pittsburgh, and Johns Hopkins University/Sidney Kimmel Cancer Center in Baltimore."
