NCT ID NCT02535312

First seen Nov 01, 2025 · Last updated Apr 28, 2026 · Updated 27 times

Summary

This study tests a new drug called TRC102 (methoxyamine) combined with two standard chemotherapy drugs (cisplatin and pemetrexed) in people with advanced solid tumors or mesothelioma that has not responded to prior treatments. The goal is to see if TRC102 can make cancer cells more sensitive to chemotherapy, potentially shrinking tumors or slowing their growth. About 30 adults are participating to find the best dose and evaluate side effects and effectiveness.
