New antibody drug takes on advanced tumors in first human trial

NCT ID NCT05143970

First seen Jun 27, 2026 ยท Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This early-phase trial tests an experimental drug called IPH5301, which targets a protein called CD73 on cancer cells. The study involves 27 people with advanced solid tumors, including breast, lung, and pancreatic cancers. In the first part, IPH5301 is given alone to find a safe dose. In the second part, it is combined with chemotherapy and trastuzumab for HER2-positive breast cancer patients. The goal is to check safety and find the right dose for future studies.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
IPH5301 (an experimental antibody targeting CD73), given alone or with chemotherapy (paclitaxel) and trastuzumab
What this could lead to
If successful, this could point toward a new treatment option for advanced cancers, especially HER2-expressing breast cancer, by helping the immune system fight tumors.
What could go wrong
This is a very early phase 1 trial with only 27 participants, so safety and dosing are still being figured out. The drug may not work or could cause serious side effects.
