New hope for advanced cancer? early trial of WJB001 begins
NCT ID NCT05773820
First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This early-phase study tests an experimental drug called WJB001 in people with advanced solid tumors who have no standard treatment options left. The trial has three parts: first, finding a safe dose; second, checking how well that dose works; and third, testing it in specific tumor types. About 210 participants will take WJB001 capsules daily in cycles, with researchers closely monitoring safety and any tumor shrinkage.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- WJB001 capsules
- What this could lead to
- If this trial succeeds, it could point toward a new treatment option for people with advanced solid tumors who have run out of standard therapies.
- What could go wrong
- This is a very early Phase I/II trial with only 210 participants. The drug may not work as hoped, and side effects could be serious. Success in this small group may not apply to all patients.

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.
Key Inclusion Criteria: 1. ≥ 18 years or older at the time of informed consent; 2. Patient with advanced malignant solid tumors clearly diagnosed pathologically and/or cytologically, who have failed to receive standard treatment, or who currently no have standard treatment, or who are intolerant to standard treatment; 3. Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) Performance Status (PS) score ≤1; 4. Life expectancy ≥ 12 weeks; 5. Adequate hematologic and organ function; 6. All acute toxic effects from previous antineoplastic therapy or surgery ; 7. Fertile women must confirm a negative blood pregnancy test within 7 days prior to the first administration of study drug;and they required to use adequate and effective contraceptive measures throughout the treatment period and within 3 months after the end of treatment;Fertile women in this protocol were defined as sexually mature women: 1) not undergoing hysterectomy or bilateral oophorectomy; 2) 24 months without a continuous period of spontaneous menopause (i.e., having had a period at any time in the previous 24 consecutive months; Amenorrhea after cancer treatment does not exclude fertility). Male participants with a sexual partner who was a woman of reproductive age had to agree to use an effective contraceptive method while using the study drug and for 3 months after the last dose; Specific inclusion criteria: 8. At least one measurable tumor lesion that meets the definition of RECIST v1.1, with no history of biopsy two weeks before screening(applicable to all stages); 9. Subjects with CCNE1 overexpression confirmed by central laboratory (applicable to the dose expansion stage and efficacy expansion stage); 10. For subjects with advanced uterine serous carcinoma, ≤2 lines of therapy for recurrence are allowed after first-line treatment; For subjects with advanced high-grade serous ovarian, fallopian tube, or peritoneal cancer,≤2 lines of therapy after platinum resistance are allowed(applicable to the dose expansion stage and efficacy expansion stage); Key Exclusion criteria: 1. General condition 1) Pregnant or lactating women; 2) Any known allergies to or contraindications to components of the study drug; 3) History of substance abuse; 4) History of alcohol abuse or consumption of more than 28 units of alcohol per week (1 unit =285 ml beer or 25 ml spirits (40%v/v) or 100 ml wine). 2. Previous or current treatment: 1\) Previous or current treatment with Wee1 inhibitors; 2) Received cytotoxic chemotherapy drugs,anti-tumor traditional Chinese medicine orother anti-tumor therapies (such as small molecule targeted therapy, etc.)within 4 weeks prior to the first administration of study drug;Or received the investigational drug, macromolecular drug with anti-tumor effect (e.g., monoclonal antibody, antibody-drug conjugate, or bispecific antibody, etc.) within 28 days prior to the first administration of study drug; Or need to continue receiving these medications during the study; 3) The use of a medium or strong inhibitor or inducer of CYP3A or other product (e.g., grapefruit juice) or P-gp inhibitor or inducer was discontinued less than the time before the first dose of WJB001 was administered 5 half-lives of the drug or 14 days, whichever is shorter; 4) Patients with a known organ transplant or stem cell transplant; Major surgery or major trauma (excluding needle biopsy for sample collection) within 4 weeks prior to the first administration of study drug; 5) Radiation therapy was administered within 21 days prior to the first administration of study drug; (except the radiation was delivered to ≤5% of bone marrow volume).3. Past medical history, present medical history and abnormal laboratory indicators: 3\. Abnormal laboratory indicators: 1. Having active GI abnormalities including, but not limited to, inability to take oral medication, need for intravenous nutritional support, peptic ulcer, chronic diarrhea (e.g., Crohn's disease, irritable bowel syndrome), or vomiting or other factors that the investigator believes may significantly affect drug absorption, metabolism, or excretion; 2. History of severe ocular disease (except permanent blindness due to disease) that has not recovered to grade 1 or less; 3. Patients with active brain metastases (except if they had CNS metastases confined to the supratentorial or cerebellar region, had been adequately treated (surgery or radiotherapy), had maintained radiological stability for at least 4 weeks, and did not require corticosteroids for symptom control); 4. Patients with current cancer meningitis or spinal cord compression; 5. Severe or poorly controlled hypertension, including previous history of hypertensive crisis or hypertensive encephalopathy; Adjustment of antihypertensive medication due to poor blood pressure control within 2 weeks before the first dose;Systolic blood pressure ≥160 mmHg or diastolic blood pressure ≥100 mmHg during the screening period; 6. Patients with clinically significant bleeding symptoms or obvious bleeding tendency within 4 weeks before the first dose, such as gastrointestinal bleeding, gastric ulcer bleeding, obvious gross hematuria, or angiitis; 7. Patients with active HBV and HCV infection: if HBsAg is positive or/and anti-HBc is positive, blood HBV DNA should be tested to confirm that it is above the limit of quantitative detection; If anti-HCV is positive, it is necessary to detect HCV RNA to confirm that the HCV virus copy number exceeds the quantitative detection limit; 8. Known history of human immunodeficiency virus infection or seropositivity for HIV; 9. History of syphilis (both treponema pallidum specific and non-specific antibodies were positive); 10. History of other primary solid tumor (except a cured solid tumor that has been inactive for ≥5 years before screening and has a very low risk of recurrence); Adequately treated non-melanoma skin cancer or lentigo maligna with no evidence of disease recurrence; Adequately treated carcinoma in situ with no evidence of disease recurrence, such as carcinoma in situ of the cervix); 11. history of severe or what the investigators considered clinically significant cardiac disease affected the safety assessment; 12. Severe active infectious diseases or other diseases that seriously affect the safety of the first medication occurred during the screening period; 13. There are other factors that the investigator considers may affect the results of the study and interfere with the patient's participation in the study; 14. TP53 showed wild-type phenotype (wild type of TP53 detected by genetic testing or p53 protein expression detected negative by immunohistochemistry);
