New treatment option for Advanced Small Bowel Adenocarcinoma
Official title Enfortumab Vedotin in Patients With Advanced Small Bowel Adenocarcinoma Refractory or Intolerant to Platinum-based Combination Therapy
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT07347314
What this study is testing
What is Enfortumab vedotin?
Enfortumab vedotin is an investigational medicine, given as an infusion into a vein, being studied as a potential treatment for advanced small bowel adenocarcinoma.
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
- Small bowel adenocarcinoma is a rare cancer with a poor prognosis. For patients with locally advanced or metastatic disease, the usual first treatment is chemotherapy with platinum-based combinations such as FOLFOX or CapeOX.
- Phase 2: a mid-size study of how well it works
- This is a blinded study.
A plain-language read of the study's public ClinicalTrials.gov listing. The study team confirms the details.
