Is this trial a fit for you?

Likely a good fit

Adults (≥18) with locally advanced or metastatic solid tumors harboring KRAS alterations, ECOG 0–1, and who are refractory to or lack standard therapies are the intended participants.

Probably not a fit

Patients who are pregnant or breastfeeding, have active or untreated CNS metastases requiring therapy, significant uncontrolled cardiovascular disease, or who do not have KRAS alterations are unlikely to benefit from this trial.

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This first-in-human, open-label Phase I study tests AUBE00 across multiple centers to define safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, immunogenicity, and preliminary anti-tumor activity. Approximately 90–130 adults with locally advanced or metastatic solid tumors and confirmed KRAS alterations will be enrolled, including cohorts that receive AUBE00 alone or in combination with cetuximab. Eligible patients must be ≥18 years old with ECOG performance status 0–1 and have disease refractory to or lacking standard treatment options. The multinational design uses dose-escalation and expansion cohorts to identify safe doses and early signals of clinical activity.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If AUBE00 is safe and active, it could provide a new treatment option that shrinks tumors or slows progression in patients with KRAS‑altered advanced solid tumors.

How similar studies have gone: This is a first-in-human study; while other KRAS‑targeted agents (for example KRAS G12C inhibitors) have shown benefit in specific mutation subtypes, the AUBE00 approach and its combination with cetuximab are novel and unproven.
