What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now This study
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.
Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

This phase 2 trial tests a combination of two drugs—becotatug vedotin (a targeted antibody-drug conjugate) and epirubicin (a standard chemo)—in 40 people with EGFR-positive, recurrent sinonasal adenoid cystic carcinoma that cannot be surgically removed. The goal is to shrink the tumor enough to allow radical surgery. The study measures how many patients respond and whether they can then undergo successful tumor removal.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
Becotatug vedotin (MRG003) combined with epirubicin
What this could lead to
If successful, this combination could shrink tumors enough to allow surgical removal, potentially improving disease control and survival for a rare cancer with few options.
What could go wrong
This is a small, early-phase trial (40 people) with no control group. The drugs may cause side effects like nerve damage or heart toxicity, and the response rate may be too low to enable surgery.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

Inclusion Criteria: Age ≥ 18 years, male or female. Histopathologically confirmed sinonasal adenoid cystic carcinoma (SNACC) with measurable recurrent disease located in the sinonasal/skull base region, irrespective of the presence of regional lymph node or distant metastases. EGFR expression positive by immunohistochemistry (IHC) performed at a central laboratory. Multidisciplinary team (MDT) assessment at baseline confirms that the tumor is not amenable to radical (R0) surgical resection. At least one measurable lesion in the skull base/sinonasal region according to RECIST v1.1 (longest diameter ≥ 10 mm). Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0 or 1. Adequate bone marrow, hepatic, renal, and cardiac function as defined by protocol-specified laboratory parameters. Willing to provide written informed consent (including consent for clinical treatment and biospecimen research) and able to comply with study procedures. Exclusion Criteria: Prior treatment with any antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) that contains monomethyl auristatin E (MMAE) as the payload. Prior systemic chemotherapy containing epirubicin or any other anthracycline within 6 months before study enrollment. Active uncontrolled infection, or active autoimmune disease requiring systemic therapy. Symptomatic or urgent (e.g., requiring radiotherapy or surgery) central nervous system (CNS) metastases. Known severe hypersensitivity to any component of the study drugs. Pregnant or breastfeeding women, or men/women planning to become pregnant within 6 months after the last dose of study treatment. Any medical or psychosocial condition that, in the investigator's judgment, may interfere with study participation, increase patient risk, or confound data interpretation.
