New drug targets tough cancers with specific gene flaw
NCT ID NCT06364696
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jul 17, 2026 · Updated 2 times
Summary
This early-stage study tests a new drug called ASP4396 in adults with advanced solid tumors that have a specific KRAS G12D mutation. The drug is given by IV infusion, and the main goals are to check safety, find the right dose, and see how the body handles it. About 175 participants will take part in two parts: dose escalation and dose expansion.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- ASP4396
- What this could lead to
- If it works, this could lead to a new treatment option for people with certain hard-to-treat cancers that have a specific genetic mutation.
- What could go wrong
- This is a very early, first-in-human study, so the drug may not work or could cause serious side effects. It is only for people who have already tried other treatments.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.
Inclusion Criteria: * Participant has locally advanced (unresectable) or metastatic solid tumor malignancy with documented KRAS G12D mutation and has received prior standard therapy. * Participant has at least 1 measurable lesion per RECIST v1.1. * Participant has an ECOG performance status of 0 or 1. * Participant has adequate organ function. Exclusion Criteria: * Participant has symptomatic or untreated central nervous system (CNS) metastases. Participants with asymptomatic and treated and stable CNS metastases are eligible. * Participant has leptomeningeal disease as a manifestation of the current malignancy. * Participant has another prior malignancy active (i.e., requiring treatment or intervention) within the previous 2 years different from the primary malignancy for this study, except for local malignancies that have been apparently cured, such as basal or squamous cell skin cancer, superficial bladder cancer or carcinoma in situ of the cervix or breast, which are allowed. * Participant with active hepatitis B or hepatitis C virus (HCV). * Participant has a known history of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection with acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS)-related complications. * Participant has an active infection requiring intravenous antibiotics within 14 days prior to study intervention. * Participant is expected to require another form of anticancer therapy while on study intervention. * Participant has any condition that makes the participant unsuitable for study participation.
