Recruiting PHASE1, PHASE2 Germ Cell Tumor

New treatment option for Germ Cell Tumor

Official title Maintenance Zanzalintinib With Etoposide After HDCT in GCT

ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT06937866

What this study is testing

What is Zanzalintinib?

Zanzalintinib is an investigational medicine, given as an once-daily pill taken by mouth, being studied as a potential treatment for germ cell tumor.

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 is an open label, single arm phase I/II trial of maintenance zanzalintinib in combination with oral etoposide in patients with relapsed GCT treated with HDCT and PBSCT with a safety lead-in cohort in patients with relapsed, refractory metastatic GCT.
  • 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.
