New antibody drug conjugate enters first human trial for advanced cancers
NCT ID NCT05948826
First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This early-phase trial tests a new drug called TORL-3-600 in 70 people with advanced solid tumors or colorectal cancer. The drug is an antibody drug conjugate designed to target and kill cancer cells. The main goals are to check safety, find the best dose, and see if it can shrink tumors.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- TORL-3-600 (antibody drug conjugate)
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could lead to a new treatment option for advanced cancers that have not responded to other therapies.
- What could go wrong
- This is an early, first-in-human trial with only 70 participants, so safety and effectiveness are not yet known. Side effects may occur, and the drug may not shrink tumors.

Inclusion Criteria: * Advanced solid tumor * Measurable disease, per RECIST v1.1 * Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status 0-1 * Adequate organ function Exclusion Criteria: * Has not recovered \[recovery is defined as NCI CTCAE, version 5.0, grade ≤1\] from the acute toxicities of previous therapy, except treatment-related alopecia or laboratory abnormalities otherwise meeting eligibility requirements * Received prior chemotherapeutic, investigational, or other therapies for the treatment of cancer within 14 days with small molecule and within 28 days with biologic before the first dose of TORL-3-600 * Progressive or symptomatic brain metastases * Serious, uncontrolled medical disorder, nonmalignant systemic disease, or active, uncontrolled infection * History of significant cardiac disease * History of myelodysplastic syndrome (MDS) or AML * History of another cancer within 3 years before Day 1 of study treatment, with the exception of basal or squamous cell carcinoma of the skin that has been definitively treated.
