New treatment option for Soft-tissue Sarcoma
Official title Trial of Single Protein Encapsulated Doxorubicin, SPEDOX-6 in Advanced Malignancies
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT07064018
What this study is testing
What is Spedox-6?
Spedox-6 is an investigational medicine, given as an infusion into a vein, being studied as a potential treatment for soft-tissue 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
- This is a Phase 1b/IIa dose escalation clinical trial determining the recommended phase II dose of SPEDOX-6 in subjects with advanced, therapy-refractory soft-tissue sarcoma (STS); triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC); Non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC); cervical cancer; ovarian cancer; KRAS mutant pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma. These are subjects who have not previously been treated with anthracyclines.
- Phase 2: a mid-size study of how well it works
