New drug targets tough cancers in early trial
NCT ID NCT06720987
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This early-phase study tests an experimental drug called KQB365 in adults with advanced solid tumors that have KRAS G12S or G12C mutations and haven't responded to standard treatments. The main goals are to find a safe dose and see if KQB365 alone or combined with other drugs can shrink tumors. About 140 participants will receive weekly infusions and be closely monitored for side effects and treatment response.
