NCT ID NCT06343402
First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This early-stage trial tests an experimental drug called BBO-8520 in 350 people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer that has a specific genetic change (KRAS G12C). The drug is taken as a pill and aims to block cancer growth. The study will check for safety, side effects, and whether the tumor shrinks. Some participants may also receive the drug with other treatments like pembrolizumab.
What this could mean

Active substance
BBO-8520 (an experimental drug taken orally that targets the KRAS G12C mutation)
What this could lead to
If successful, this could lead to a new treatment option for people with a specific type of advanced lung cancer that has limited targeted therapies.
What could go wrong
This is an early Phase 1 trial, so the drug may not prove safe or effective. Side effects and limited benefit are possible, and it only applies to patients with the KRAS G12C mutation.
