First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This early-phase study tested an experimental drug called COM902, alone or with other drugs, in 94 people with advanced cancers like ovarian, lung, and colon cancer. The main goal was to check safety and find the right dose. Researchers also looked for early signs that the drug might help control tumors.

What this could mean

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

Active substance

COM902 (an experimental antibody) given alone or with COM701 and pembrolizumab

What this could lead to

If successful, this could point toward a new treatment option for people with advanced cancers that have not responded to standard therapies.

What could go wrong

This is an early Phase 1 trial with only 94 participants, so the main goal is safety, not effectiveness. The drug may not shrink tumors or may cause side effects.
