Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Ideal candidates include adults aged 18 and older with metastatic or locally advanced solid tumors that have progressed despite standard therapies.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients with unresolved toxicities from prior therapies or those receiving high doses of systemic corticosteroids may not benefit from this study.

What this trial studies
This phase 1, open-label study evaluates the safety and efficacy of intratumoral CAN2109 in patients with unstable or metastatic advanced solid tumors or lymphomas. The study involves a dose escalation approach to determine the optimal dosage while monitoring pharmacokinetics and pharmacodynamics effects on the immune system and tumor markers. Participants will receive CAN2109 directly into their tumors, and data will be collected to assess both local and systemic responses to the treatment.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this treatment could provide a new therapeutic option for patients with advanced solid tumors and lymphomas who have limited or no effective standard care.
How similar studies have gone: While this approach is novel, similar studies targeting intratumoral therapies have shown promise in other contexts, indicating potential for success.
