Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Ideal candidates are adults aged 18 and older with relapsed or metastatic solid tumors who have previously received standard care.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients with untreated solid tumors or those who do not meet the eligibility criteria 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 study evaluates the safety and efficacy of AZD8205, an antibody drug conjugate, in patients with advanced or metastatic solid tumors. It is designed as a Phase I/IIa multi-center, open-label study that includes dose escalation and expansion phases. Participants may receive AZD8205 alone or in combination with other anticancer agents, such as AZD2936 and AZD5305. The study aims to determine the optimal dosing and therapeutic potential of AZD8205 in various cancer types.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this treatment could provide a new therapeutic option for patients with advanced solid tumors that are difficult to treat.
How similar studies have gone: Other studies involving antibody drug conjugates have shown promising results, indicating potential for success with this approach.
