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.

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.
