First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time

Summary

This study tests the drug lenvatinib in 48 adults with advanced gastrointestinal stromal tumors (GIST) that have stopped responding to three standard treatments. Participants take lenvatinib capsules daily, and researchers will measure how many patients have their disease controlled (shrink or stay stable) after 12 weeks. The goal is to see if lenvatinib can provide a new option when other drugs no longer work.

What this could mean

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

Active substance

Lenvatinib (a targeted cancer drug taken as a daily capsule)

What this could lead to

If successful, lenvatinib could offer a new treatment option for people with advanced GIST who have run out of standard therapies.

What could go wrong

This is an early phase 2 study with only 48 participants, so results may not apply broadly. Lenvatinib can cause side effects like high blood pressure, fatigue, and liver issues.
