Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Adults 18–75 years old with histologically or cytologically confirmed advanced solid tumors, at least one measurable lesion, ECOG performance status 0–1, and adequate organ function are the intended candidates.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients with severe liver failure, symptomatic large thoracoabdominal or pericardial effusions, poor performance status, or who are pregnant or breastfeeding are unlikely to benefit from participation.

What this trial studies
This two-part phase 1/2 interventional study tests MRG006A, an antibody–drug conjugate, in adults with advanced solid tumors. Phase 1 uses dose escalation to determine the maximum tolerated dose and recommended phase 2 dose while monitoring safety, pharmacokinetics, and immunogenicity. Phase 2 is a dose-expansion cohort at the confirmed dose to further measure tumor response by RECIST v1.1 (and mRECIST for HCC), safety, PK, and immunogenicity. Eligible patients must have measurable disease, ECOG 0–1, adequate organ function, and in some cases provide tumor tissue for GPC3 and P53 testing.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, MRG006A could shrink or slow growth of some advanced solid tumors and provide a new targeted treatment option.
How similar studies have gone: Antibody–drug conjugates have delivered notable benefits in several cancers, but MRG006A itself is a novel agent that has not yet been proven in patients.

Previous or combined interstitial pneumonia, severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease with respiratory failure, severe pulmonary insufficiency, symptomatic bronchospasm and other medical history; 14. Allergic reactions to any component or excipient of MRG006A, or known Grade ≥ 3 allergic reactions to other prior anti-GPC3 or other monoclonal antibodies. 15. Acute or chronic active hepatitis B or C infection. 16. Active or clinically poorly controlled serious infection. 17. Receiving anti-tuberculosis treatment or receiving anti-tuberculosis treatment within 1 year before the first dose. 18.
