Summary

This early-phase study tests a new drug called EPI-326 in about 110 people with advanced lung or head & neck cancers that have specific EGFR mutations. The drug is a bispecific antibody designed to target cancer cells more precisely. The main goals are to check safety, find the right dose, and see early signs of tumor shrinkage.
