New drug cocktail targets Hard-to-Treat tumors
NCT ID NCT05417594
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Aug 13, 2026 · Updated 4 times
Summary
This study tests an experimental drug called AZD9574, taken alone or with other anti-cancer medicines, in about 695 people whose advanced solid tumors have grown despite prior treatment. The main goals are to check the drug's safety and find the right dose. Researchers will also look for early signs that the drug can shrink or slow tumors.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- AZD9574 (an experimental drug taken by mouth, sometimes combined with other anti-cancer drugs)
- What this could lead to
- If it works, this could point toward a new treatment option for people with advanced solid cancers that have stopped responding to standard therapies.
- What could go wrong
- This is a very early (Phase 1/2a) trial with only 695 participants, so the drug may not prove effective or safe enough to move forward. Side effects are unknown and could be serious.
