New treatment option for Ewing Sarcoma
Official title Lurbinectedin in FET-Fused Tumors
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT05918640
What this study is testing
What is Lurbinectedin?
Lurbinectedin is an investigational medicine, being studied as a potential treatment for ewing sarcoma.
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
- The purpose of this study is to find out if a drug called lurbinectedin (the "study drug") is safe and effective at treating people with recurrent or relapsed solid tumors, including Ewing sarcoma.
- 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.
