What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now This study
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.
Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

This study tests a new drug called GI-108 in people with advanced or metastatic solid tumors, including lung, head and neck, pancreatic, and kidney cancers. The drug is designed to boost the immune system's ability to fight cancer. The trial will first find the safest dose, then test how well it works in a larger group. About 76 participants will receive the drug intravenously every three weeks for up to two years.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
GI-108 (a bispecific fusion protein targeting CD73 and IL-2)
What this could lead to
If successful, this could lead to a new treatment option for several advanced cancers, potentially shrinking tumors or slowing disease progression.
What could go wrong
This is an early-phase trial with only 76 participants, so safety and effectiveness are not yet proven. The drug may cause immune-related side effects or fail to show meaningful anti-tumor activity.
Why investors are watching

GI Innovation is a micro-cap company with one main drug candidate, GI-108, in early human testing for advanced solid tumors. This phase 1/2 trial will show whether the drug is safe and shrinks tumors, which is the first real test of its value. For a company this small, this readout is the main driver of its future.

If it works: If GI-108 shows clear safety and signs of tumor shrinkage, the company could attract a larger partner or funding to continue development. A positive result would validate the drug's design and give the company a path forward.

If it fails: Most early cancer drugs fail safety or efficacy testing, and this trial could show the drug is too toxic or does not work. A failure or delay would leave GI Innovation with few other options and could sharply reduce its prospects.
