Is this trial a fit for you?

Likely a good fit

Adults with advanced solid tumors who are ECOG 0-1 and meet organ function and infectious disease criteria, not recently treated with systemic anticancer therapy.

Probably not a fit

Patients with rapid disease progression, significant organ impairment, or contraindications to study drugs may not experience benefit.

What this trial studies

This phase 2 trial evaluates the safety and tolerability of MK-2010 given with sacituzumab tirumotecan in participants with advanced solid tumors that have limited treatment options. The study includes additional medications to manage potential reactions, and assesses whether the combination can be tolerated by patients. Eligible participants have good performance status and adequate organ function, with specific requirements for HIV, HBV, and HCV status. Key exclusions include recent anticancer therapy, recent locoregional treatment, ongoing anticoagulation, and a prior grade 3+ immune-related adverse event from immunotherapy. Locations include sites in the United States, Hong Kong, and Switzerland.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, the combination could offer a new treatment option for patients with advanced solid tumors who have limited alternatives.

How similar studies have gone: Prior studies of antibody-drug conjugates and MK-2010-like strategies have shown promise but this exact combination is investigational and its success is not yet established.
