Bacteria battle cancer: modified salmonella starves tumors in new trial

NCT ID NCT05103345

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study tests a modified salmonella bacteria (SGN1) injected directly into tumors. The bacteria are designed to grow inside tumors and cut off their food supply (an amino acid called methionine), causing the tumors to shrink. The trial involves about 70 adults with advanced solid tumors that have not responded to standard treatments. The main goals are to check safety and find the best dose, while also seeing if the treatment can control the disease.
