NCT ID NCT04417465
First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This early-phase study tested an experimental drug called ABBV-CLS-579, given alone or with other cancer treatments, in 101 adults with advanced solid tumors that had stopped responding to standard therapy. The main goal was to find safe and tolerable doses, not to prove the drug works. The study is now complete, and results will help guide future research.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- ABBV-CLS-579 (oral capsule), PD-1 inhibitor (IV infusion), VEGFR TKI (oral tablet)
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could point toward a new combination treatment option for certain advanced solid tumors like head and neck, lung, or kidney cancers.
- What could go wrong
- This is a very early (Phase 1) trial with only 101 participants, focused on safety and dosing. It is not designed to prove effectiveness, and many early cancer drugs do not advance to later stages.
