NCT ID NCT07038369

What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing This study
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.
Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

This early-phase study tests a new oral drug, ATV-1601, in people with advanced solid tumors or certain breast cancers that have a specific AKT1 E17K mutation. The main goals are to check safety, find the right dose, and see how the drug moves through the body. About 134 adults will take part, and some may also receive a second drug called fulvestrant.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
ATV-1601 (a targeted drug that blocks a specific cancer-driving protein called AKT1 E17K)
What this could lead to
If this works, it could offer a new treatment option for people with certain advanced cancers that have a specific AKT1 mutation.
What could go wrong
This is a very early Phase 1 trial, so the drug may not be effective or safe in larger studies. Side effects are unknown and the mutation is rare.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: 1. Histologically or cytologically confirmed metastatic or advanced-stage solid malignant tumor or HR+/HER2- breast cancer. 2. Have progressed on, were intolerant to, or experienced disease recurrence after standard therapy and have no available effective or tolerable treatment options to derive clinically meaningful benefit. 3. Tumor must have documented specific mutation profile as outlined below based on local laboratory testing. 4. Participants with solid tumors or HR+/HER2- breast cancer with AKT1 E17K mutations. 5. Measurable disease according to RECIST v1.1 criteria. 6. Formalin-fixed paraffin-embedded tumor specimen available for submission. 7. Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status of 0 or 1. Exclusion Criteria: 1. Previously documented activating mutations in KRAS, NRAS, HRAS, or BRAF. 2. Inadequate bone marrow reserve or organ function. 3.
