Study on TAK-188 for Adults with Advanced or Spreading Solid Tumors

Sponsor: Takeda

Sponsor score: 60

ClinicalTrials ID:NCT07205718

This clinical trial is testing a new medicine called TAK-188, which aims to help the immune system fight cancer by targeting specific cells within tumors. The study will evaluate if TAK-188 is safe and effective for adults with advanced cancers that have not improved with standard treatments.

Patient Parameters

Program Overview

TAK-188 is a new drug designed to target a protein called CCR8 found on certain cells (Tregs) inside tumors. These cells can weaken the body's ability to fight cancer. TAK-188 may help remove these Tregs, allowing more cancer-fighting cells to attack the tumor and potentially stop it from growing. This study aims to see if TAK-188 can help the immune system better fight cancer in adults with advanced cancers that haven't improved with regular treatments. The main goals are to check if TAK-188 is safe, if participants can tolerate it, and if it works well in adults with certain advanced cancers after previous treatments didn't work. Participants may receive TAK-188 for up to 1 year, with health monitoring continuing for another year after treatment ends.
