New drug trial targets Cancer's genetic engine

NCT ID NCT03310879

Summary

This study is testing whether the drug abemaciclib can slow or stop the growth of advanced solid tumors that have specific genetic abnormalities. It is for adults with cancers that have mutations in certain genes (CCND1, CCND2, CCND3, CDK4, or CDK6) and for whom standard treatments are no longer effective. The goal is to see if this targeted therapy can control the cancer in people with these specific genetic profiles.
