NCT ID NCT07739966
First seen Jul 31, 2026 · Last updated Jul 31, 2026
Summary
This trial is testing an experimental drug called DS-3939a in adults with advanced solid tumors, including a type of lung cancer. The study has two parts: the first checks safety and the best dose, and the second looks at whether the drug, alone or with other cancer treatments, can shrink tumors. The goal is to find a new option for people whose cancer has spread or cannot be removed.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- DS-3939a, an experimental drug given by IV infusion, tested alone or with pembrolizumab, carboplatin, pemetrexed, or DS-1103a
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could lead to a new treatment option for people with advanced solid tumors, including non-small cell lung cancer, potentially slowing or shrinking their cancer.
- What could go wrong
- This is an early-phase trial, so the drug may not work as hoped or may cause significant side effects. The results will need confirmation in larger studies before it becomes available.
