NCT ID NCT06578624

First seen Aug 18, 2026 ยท Last updated Aug 18, 2026

Summary

This trial is testing an experimental drug called SA53-OS in people with advanced or metastatic solid tumors that have not responded to standard treatments. The drug works by blocking a protein called MDM2, which may help slow or stop tumor growth. The study has two parts: first, finding the safest dose, then testing that dose in a larger group to see if it shows promise.
