New pill targets Hard-to-Treat cancers in early trial
NCT ID NCT07198321
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests an experimental oral drug called GFH276 in people with advanced solid tumors that have RAS mutations, including pancreatic, lung, and colorectal cancers. The trial has two parts: Phase 1 finds the safest dose, and Phase 2 checks if the drug shrinks tumors. About 450 adults aged 18-75 will participate across multiple centers.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- GFH276 (an oral drug targeting RAS-mutant cancers)
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could lead to a new oral treatment option for people with hard-to-treat cancers like pancreatic, lung, and colorectal cancer that have specific RAS mutations.
- What could go wrong
- This is an early-phase trial (Phase 1/2) with only 450 participants, so the drug may not prove effective or safe enough for wider use. Side effects could be significant, and the drug may only work for a subset of patients.
