NCT ID NCT06500052

First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 26, 2026

Summary

This early-phase study tests a new drug called BL-M17D1 in 20 people with advanced HER2-positive gastrointestinal cancers (like stomach, pancreas, or colon cancer) or other solid tumors. The main goals are to check safety, find the right dose, and get a first look at whether the drug can shrink tumors. Participants receive the drug by IV every 3 weeks.

What this could mean

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

Active substance

BL-M17D1 (a drug given by IV infusion every 3 weeks)

What this could lead to

If it works, this could point toward a new treatment option for people with advanced HER2-positive gastrointestinal and other solid tumors.

What could go wrong

This is a very early Phase 1 trial with only 20 participants, so it is primarily testing safety and dosing. The drug may not shrink tumors or may cause side effects, and it is too soon to know if it will work.
