Recruiting PHASE2 Advanced Refractory Solid Tumors

New treatment option for Advanced Refractory Solid Tumors

Official title Phase II Study of Becotatug Vedotin Plus Pucotenlimab for Advanced Refractory Solid Tumors With EGFR-Positive

ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT07712029

What this study is testing

What is Becotatug Vedotin?

Becotatug Vedotin is an investigational medicine, given as an infusion into a vein, being studied as a potential treatment for advanced refractory solid tumors.

Also referred to as MRG003.

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 phase II trial evaluates the combination of Becotatug Vedotin (MRG003), an EGFR-targeting ADC, and Pucotenlimab (HX008), a PD-1 inhibitor, in patients with high EGFR expressing advanced refractory solid tumors. The study is designed to assess clinical efficacy and safety, building on a strong synergistic rationale and promising early-phase data.
