What this trial studies

This first-in-human study evaluates the safety, tolerability, and antitumor activity of CX-801, both alone and in combination with pembrolizumab, in adults with advanced solid tumors. The study consists of two parts: the first part focuses on dose escalation to determine the maximum tolerated dose of CX-801, while the second part involves dose expansion to further assess safety and preliminary antitumor activity in specific cohorts. Participants will undergo fresh biopsies or provide archival tumor tissue for analysis.

Who should consider this trial

Good fit: Ideal candidates are adults with metastatic or locally advanced unresectable solid tumors that have progressed after standard therapy.

Not a fit: Patients with recent localized cancers unrelated to the current cancer, known active CNS involvement, or those who have had severe adverse reactions to prior immunotherapy may not benefit from this study.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this study could provide a new treatment option for patients with advanced solid tumors that have not responded to standard therapies.

How similar studies have performed: Other studies involving similar immunotherapy combinations have shown promising results, suggesting potential for success in this approach.
