New drug tested for advanced cancers: early results
NCT ID NCT03317743
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This early-phase trial tested a new drug called NOV140101 in 32 adults with advanced solid tumors that had spread or could not be removed by surgery. The main goals were to find the safest dose and check for side effects. The study is complete, but it was too small to determine if the drug works as a treatment.
