Cancer combo trial halted before full results
NCT ID NCT04284488

Summary
This early-stage trial tested a combination of two drugs, APG-1387 and toripalimab, in 40 people with advanced solid tumors including colorectal, nasopharyngeal, and lung cancers. The goal was to find a safe dose and see if the combination could control the disease. However, the study was terminated early, so we have limited information on how well it worked.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- APG-1387 and toripalimab (a type of immunotherapy)
- What this could lead to
- If it had succeeded, this combination might have offered a new treatment option for certain advanced cancers that are hard to treat.
- What could go wrong
- The trial was terminated early, so results are limited. The study was small and early-stage, meaning even if it worked, it would need much more testing.
