STRO-004 treatment in adults with recurrent or metastatic solid tumors
Official title: A Phase 1 Open-Label Study to Evaluate Safety, Pharmacokinetics, and Preliminary Anti-Tumor Activity of STRO-004 in Adults With Refractory/Recurrent Metastatic Solid Tumors
Run by Sutro Biopharma, Inc. · NCT07227168 · Data updated 2026-11-12
This study will test whether STRO-004, alone and with pembrolizumab, is safe and can shrink tumors in adults with several types of metastatic cancers that often express Tissue Factor.

Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Adults (≥18) with metastatic or locally advanced solid tumors listed (HNSCC, NSCLC, esophageal/gastric, colorectal, pancreatic, cervical, endometrial, or urothelial), ECOG 0–1, measurable disease, available tumor tissue, adequate organ function, and prior therapies per protocol are ideal candidates.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients with untreated brain metastases, certain eye disorders, inadequate organ function, or poor performance status (ECOG ≥2), or those unable to attend required visits at participating centers are unlikely to benefit or be eligible.

What this trial studies
This is a Phase 1, first-in-human study of STRO-004, an antibody–drug conjugate targeting Tissue Factor, conducted in three parts: dose escalation of STRO-004 monotherapy (Part 1A), cohort expansion to select a recommended monotherapy dose and examine anti-tumor activity (Part 1B), and dose escalation of STRO-004 combined with pembrolizumab (Part 1C). The study enrolls adults with a range of metastatic or locally advanced solid tumors known to commonly express Tissue Factor and requires measurable disease and available tumor tissue. Primary focuses are safety, tolerability, dose finding, and preliminary anti-tumor activity using standard response criteria. Participants will undergo regular safety monitoring, tumor assessments per RECIST 1.1, and laboratory evaluations to define dose-limiting toxicities and recommended doses for later studies.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, STRO-004 could provide a new targeted treatment that shrinks tumors and prolongs disease control for patients with Tissue Factor–expressing metastatic cancers.
How similar studies have gone: Other Tissue Factor–targeting ADCs (for example, tisotumab vedotin) have shown clinical activity in some cancers, so the approach has clinical precedent although STRO-004 itself is early-stage.
