Tests treatment safety and results for Anatomic Stage III Breast Cancer AJCC v8
Official title Testing the Safety and Efficacy of the Combination of Two Anti-cancer Drugs, ZEN003694 and Abemaciclib, for Adult and Pediatric Patients (12-17 Years) With Metastatic or Unresectable NUT Carcinoma, Breast Cancer and Other Solid Tumors
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT05372640
What this study is testing
What is Abemaciclib?
Abemaciclib is an investigational medicine, given as an once-daily pill taken by mouth, being studied as a potential treatment for anatomic stage iii breast cancer ajcc v8.
Also referred to as LY 2835219, LY-2835219.
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 I trial tests the safety, side effects, and best dose of ZEN003694 when given together with abemaciclib in treating patients with NUT carcinoma, breast cancer or other solid tumors that have spread from where it first started (primary site) to other places in the body (metastatic) or cannot be removed by surgery (unresectable). ZEN003694 is an inhibitor of a family of proteins called the bromodomain and extra-terminal (BET).
- Phase 1: an early, usually small safety study
