First-in-Human trial launches for targeted radiation therapy against FAP-Expressing tumors

NCT ID NCT07681141

First seen Jul 02, 2026 · Last updated Jul 02, 2026

Summary

This study tests a new radioactive drug called 177Lu-JH040182 in people with advanced cancers that have a protein called FAP on their cells. The drug is designed to deliver radiation directly to the tumor. The main goals are to check safety and measure how much radiation reaches the tumors and healthy organs. Only three people will take part, making this an early step in exploring whether this treatment could be developed further.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance

177Lu-JH040182 (a radioactive drug that targets FAP on tumor cells)

What this could lead to

If safe and effective, this approach could offer a new treatment option for patients with advanced cancers that express FAP.

What could go wrong

This is a very early, small study (3 people) focused on safety and dosing, not on curing the cancer. The drug may cause side effects or not shrink tumors.
