Summary

This early-stage trial tests a new drug, [177Lu]Lu-EVS459, that delivers radiation directly to cancer cells in people with advanced ovarian or lung cancers. The study aims to see if the treatment is safe and tolerable, and to get an early look at whether it can shrink tumors. Participants must have already tried at least one other treatment without success.
