New pill takes on three tough cancers in early human test
NCT ID NCT06966024
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jul 17, 2026 · Updated 2 times
Summary
This early-stage trial is testing a new oral drug called DCC-2812 in 60 people with advanced kidney, bladder, or prostate cancers that have spread. The main goals are to check safety and find the right dose, while also looking for signs that the drug can shrink tumors. It is a first step to see if this approach is worth studying further.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- DCC-2812
- What this could lead to
- If it works, this could point toward a new treatment option for advanced kidney, bladder, or prostate cancers that have stopped responding to other therapies.
- What could go wrong
- This is a very early Phase 1 trial with only 60 people, so it is primarily checking safety. The drug may not shrink tumors or may cause side effects that limit its use.
