New pill hopes to fight advanced cancers when other treatments fail
NCT ID NCT07163325
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This early-stage trial tests an experimental oral drug called EP102 in people with advanced solid tumors who have no other treatment options. The main goals are to find the safest dose and understand side effects. About 48 participants with specific cancer types will take the drug by mouth, and researchers will monitor how the body processes it and whether it shrinks tumors.
