What this trial studies

This study evaluates the safety and tolerability of BMS-986340, both as a standalone treatment and in combination with nivolumab or docetaxel, in patients with advanced solid tumors. It is a first-in-human trial that aims to determine the recommended doses for these therapies. Participants must provide tumor biopsies for biomarker analysis and have measurable disease that has progressed after standard treatments.

Who should consider this trial

Good fit: Ideal candidates include individuals with advanced or metastatic solid tumors who have progressed on standard therapies and can provide tumor biopsies.

Not a fit: Patients who have not received prior therapies or those with non-measurable disease may not benefit from this study.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this study could offer new treatment options for patients with advanced solid tumors.

How similar studies have performed: Other studies have shown promise with similar approaches, but this specific combination is being evaluated for the first time.
