NCT ID NCT05700084

First seen Jul 10, 2026 ยท Last updated Jul 10, 2026

Summary

This early-stage trial evaluates the safety, tolerability, and how well the body absorbs utidelone in capsule form for people with advanced solid tumors, including metastatic breast cancer. The study has three parts: finding the safest dose, comparing the capsule to the injected version, and testing the capsule combined with another chemotherapy drug. The goal is to determine if an oral version of utidelone could be a viable treatment option.
