Study of STK-012 Alone and With Other Treatments for Advanced Lung Cancer and Other Cancers

Sponsor: Synthekine

Sponsor score: 0

ClinicalTrials ID:NCT05098132

This clinical trial is testing a new drug, STK-012, both by itself and with other standard treatments, to see if it can help treat advanced lung cancer and other solid tumors. The study is currently open for patients with a specific type of lung cancer that has not been treated before.

Patient Parameters

Program Overview

This study is exploring a new treatment called STK-012 for patients with advanced cancers. In the first part, researchers tested different doses of STK-012 alone and with other treatments to find the best dose. Now, in the second part, they are testing STK-012 combined with standard cancer treatments to see if it works better than the standard treatments alone for patients with a specific type of lung cancer that hasn't been treated yet.

Description

The study is divided into two phases. The first phase, which is now closed, involved testing different doses of STK-012 alone and with other treatments to find the best dose for future studies. The second phase, which is open for enrollment, is comparing the effectiveness of STK-012 combined with standard treatments (pembrolizumab, pemetrexed, and carboplatin) against the standard treatments alone in patients with a specific type of lung cancer. This phase is focused on patients who have not received any prior treatment for their advanced lung cancer and whose tumors do not have certain genetic markers.
