Experimental drug combo targets tough blood cancers
NCT ID NCT01905813
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This early-stage trial tested a new drug called INCB040093, alone or combined with itacitinib, in 121 adults with B-cell cancers that had come back or stopped responding to treatment. The main goal was to find safe doses and check for side effects. Researchers also looked for signs that the drugs might shrink tumors.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- INCB040093 (a PI3Kδ inhibitor) and itacitinib (a JAK1 inhibitor)
- What this could lead to
- If it works, this could point toward a new treatment option for people with B-cell cancers that have not responded to prior therapies.
- What could go wrong
- This is an early Phase 1 trial focused on safety and dosing, not on proving effectiveness. The drug may cause side effects or fail to shrink tumors in later studies.
