New targeted therapy trial offers hope for hard-to-treat cancers with specific genetic flaw

NCT ID NCT04439123

Summary

This study is testing whether the drug AZD5363 can help control advanced cancers that have a specific genetic change called an AKT mutation. The trial includes 35 patients with various cancers (solid tumors, lymphoma, or myeloma) that have stopped responding to standard treatments. Researchers want to see if blocking the AKT protein with this oral medication can shrink tumors or stop their growth.
