NCT ID NCT07064018
First seen Jul 17, 2026 · Last updated Jul 17, 2026
Summary
This trial tests SPEDOX-6, a version of the chemotherapy drug doxorubicin wrapped in a protein shell, in people with advanced solid tumors such as soft-tissue sarcoma, triple-negative breast cancer, non-small cell lung cancer, cervical cancer, ovarian cancer, and certain pancreatic cancers. The study aims to find the best dose and see whether the drug can shrink tumors or stop them from growing. Participants have already tried at least two other treatments without success.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- SPEDOX-6, a protein-encapsulated form of the chemotherapy drug doxorubicin, given intravenously
- What this could lead to
- If successful, SPEDOX-6 could offer a new treatment option for people with advanced cancers that have stopped responding to other therapies.
- What could go wrong
- This is an early-phase trial with a small number of participants, so the drug may not prove effective or may cause significant side effects. Results may not apply to all cancer types.
