New pill takes on Hard-to-Treat prostate cancer

NCT ID NCT06155084

First seen Jun 26, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study tests an experimental oral drug called HP518 in 84 men with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer that has spread and stopped responding to standard hormone therapy. The trial has two parts: first, finding the safest dose, then checking how well that dose controls the cancer. Researchers will monitor side effects, drug levels in the blood, and tumor markers like PSA.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
HP518 (oral drug)
What this could lead to
If it works, this could point toward a new oral treatment option for men with advanced prostate cancer that has stopped responding to standard hormone therapy.
What could go wrong
This is an early phase 1/2 trial with only 84 participants, so it is too soon to know if HP518 is truly effective or safe. Side effects are still being identified, and the drug may not work for everyone.
