What this trial studies

This clinical trial evaluates the safety and efficacy of STP938 in patients with advanced solid tumors. It consists of a Phase 1a dose escalation to determine the optimal dosage and a Phase 1b safety expansion cohort to further assess the drug's safety profile. Participants will receive STP938 as a monotherapy, and their tumor tissue will be analyzed for biomarker testing. The study aims to provide insights into the potential therapeutic benefits of STP938 for patients with limited treatment options.

Who should consider this trial

Good fit: Ideal candidates include adults aged 18 and older with advanced solid tumors that require systemic therapy and have measurable disease.

Not a fit: Patients who are pregnant, breastfeeding, or have tumors that are curable by existing therapies may not benefit from this study.

Why it matters

Potential benefit: If successful, this treatment could offer a new therapeutic option for patients with advanced solid tumors that are not curable by existing therapies.

How similar studies have performed: While this approach is part of ongoing research, similar studies have shown promise in targeting advanced solid tumors with novel therapies.
