New treatment option for Locally Advanced Malignant Solid Neoplasm
Official title Larotrectinib for the Treatment of NTRK Amplification Positive, Locally Advanced or Metastatic Solid Tumors
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT04879121
What this study is testing
What is Larotrectinib Sulfate?
Larotrectinib Sulfate is an investigational medicine, given as an once-daily infusion into a vein, being studied as a potential treatment for locally advanced malignant solid neoplasm.
Also referred to as ARRY 470 Sulfate, LOXO 101 Sulfate.
Plain-language explanation of the investigational treatment - it is being studied and is not an approved or proven therapy. The study team can confirm the details.
- What it's testing
- This phase II trial studies the effect of larotrectinib in treating patients with NTRK gene amplification positive solid tumors that have spread to nearby tissues or lymph nodes (locally advanced) or other places in the body (metastatic). Larotrectinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth.
- Phase 2: a mid-size study of how well it works
A plain-language read of the study's public ClinicalTrials.gov listing. The study team confirms the details.
