Recruiting PHASE1, PHASE2 Advanced Solid Tumors

New treatment option for Advanced Solid Tumors

Official title EIK1005-002: A Clinical Research Study Evaluating EIK1005, a Werner Helicase Inhibitor, as Monotherapy and in Combination With Pembrolizumab in Participants With Advanced Solid Tumors Including Microsatellite Instability High (MSI-H) Tumors

ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT07262619

What this study is testing

What is EIK1005?

EIK1005 is an investigational medicine, being studied as a potential treatment for advanced solid tumors.

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 goal of this clinical trial is to determine the most effective dose of EIK1005 that a person can take safely. Additionally, this study will test how well EIK1005 is tolerated alone and in combination with pembrolizumab in treating patients with advanced cancer.
  • Phase 2: a mid-size study of how well it works
  • Which group you join is decided by chance.
