New mRNA drug takes on HER2 cancers in first human trial

NCT ID NCT07334119

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

Summary

This early-stage trial is testing a new mRNA-based drug called MT-304, alone or with the immunotherapy nivolumab, in adults with advanced HER2-expressing solid tumors. The main goals are to check safety, find the right dose, and get a first look at whether it shrinks tumors. About 60 participants will receive the drug every two weeks and be closely monitored.

Active substance
MT-304 (mRNA therapy) and nivolumab
What this could lead to
If it works, this could point toward a new treatment option for advanced HER2-expressing cancers.
What could go wrong
This is a very early Phase 1 trial with only 60 participants, so safety and dosing are still being figured out. It may not work or could have side effects.
