NCT ID NCT01591356

Summary

This is an early safety study testing a new type of intravenous drug called EphA2 siRNA in patients with advanced solid tumors that have spread or returned after treatment. The drug is designed to slow cancer growth by 'silencing' a specific gene that helps tumors grow. The main goals are to find the safest dose and understand the side effects in up to 49 participants.
