Is this trial a fit for you?

Likely a good fit

Ideal candidates are adults aged 18 and older with advanced solid tumors that are metastatic or unresectable and have received or are not candidates for standard treatment options.

Probably not a fit

Patients with early-stage cancers or those who have not yet received standard treatment options may not benefit from this study.

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

What this trial studies

This Phase 1a/1b multicenter, open-label oncology study aims to assess the safety and anti-cancer activity of NX-1607 in adults with advanced malignancies. The study consists of two phases: Phase 1a focuses on dose escalation to evaluate safety and tolerability, while Phase 1b investigates efficacy as monotherapy or in combination with paclitaxel for specific advanced cancers. Eligible patients include those with metastatic or unresectable tumors who have exhausted standard treatment options. The study will provide insights into the potential of NX-1607 as a new therapeutic option for patients with limited treatment choices.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this study could offer a new treatment option for patients with advanced malignancies that currently have no effective standard therapies.

How similar studies have gone: Other studies exploring similar approaches with novel therapies have shown promise, but the specific use of NX-1607 is a novel approach.
