Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Adults (≥18) with advanced or metastatic solid tumors that have documented KRAS mutations or KRAS amplification, measurable disease, ECOG performance status 0–1, and who have received 1–4 prior systemic therapies are the intended candidates.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients with active brain metastases or carcinomatous meningitis, ECOG >1, more than four prior systemic therapies, or without KRAS mutation/amplification 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 is a Phase 1, dose-escalation trial of PT0511 as monotherapy for adults with advanced or metastatic solid tumors harboring KRAS mutations or KRAS amplification, with a combination arm of PT0511 plus cetuximab specifically for colorectal cancer. The primary objectives are to characterize safety, determine the maximally tolerated dose (MTD) and define recommended Phase 2 dose(s) using sequential dose cohorts. Key eligibility includes adults (≥18) with measurable disease per RECIST 1.1, ECOG 0–1, and 1–4 prior systemic therapies or intolerance/ineligibility to standard options. The trial is sponsored by PAQ Therapeutics and is open at sites in Boston and San Antonio.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, PT0511 could offer a new targeted option for patients with KRAS-mutated or KRAS-amplified tumors, including colorectal cancers that no longer respond to existing therapies.
How similar studies have gone: KRAS-targeted therapies have shown promise in certain KRAS alterations, and cetuximab is effective in KRAS wild-type colorectal cancer, but combining a KRAS-directed agent with cetuximab is an emerging strategy with limited published clinical data to date.
