NCT ID NCT04418167

First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 26, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This early-stage trial is testing an experimental drug called JSI-1187, alone or with another cancer drug (dabrafenib), in people with advanced solid tumors that have certain genetic changes. The main goal is to check safety and side effects. About 71 adults with tumors that have not responded to standard treatments are being enrolled. The trial is currently on hold.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
JSI-1187 (an experimental drug) and dabrafenib (a targeted cancer drug)
What this could lead to
If successful, this could point toward a new treatment option for advanced solid tumors with specific genetic mutations.
What could go wrong
This is a very early Phase 1 trial with only 71 participants, so it is primarily testing safety. The drug may not shrink tumors or could cause side effects. The trial is currently suspended, which raises caution.
