New pill takes aim at Hard-to-Treat cancers
NCT ID NCT06209385
First seen Jul 01, 2026 · Last updated Jul 02, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This early-phase trial tests an experimental tablet called YZJ-5053 in people with advanced solid tumors who have no standard treatment options left. The main goals are to find a safe dose and check for side effects. Researchers will also look at how the drug moves through the body and whether 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
- YZJ-5053 (also called SHY-1901) tablets
- What this could lead to
- If safe and effective, this could lead to a new oral treatment option for people with advanced solid tumors who have run out of standard therapies.
- What could go wrong
- This is a very early, small Phase 1 trial focused on safety and dosing, not proof of effectiveness. The drug may cause side effects or fail to shrink tumors.

Inclusion Criteria: * Male or female subjects are ≥ 18 years of age on the day of signing the informed consent. * Histologically or cytologically confirmed advanced or metastatic solid tumors who have failed standard treatment, or are ineligible for the standard treatment, or have no standard treatment, or declined standard treatment. * Subjects must have at least one measurable target lesion in indication expansion phase (Part 2) as defined by Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) v1.1 criteria which has not received radiotherapy (or progressive disease after radiotherapy), or at least one evaluable lesion in dose escalation phase (Part 1) . * Subjects with previously confirmed brain metastases were enrolled if they were clinically asymptomatic, in stable condition, and did not require steroid therapy for at least 4 weeks before the initiation of study treatment. * Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status (ECOG PS) of 0 or 1; * Life expectancy at least 3 months; * Adequate hematologic and organ function at screening and within 28 days prior to initiation of study treatment (without receiving any blood transfusion or hematopoietic stimulating factors within 2 weeks prior to screening),as evidenced by: absolute neutrophil count (ANC) ≥ 1.5 x 10\^9/L; Platelets ≥ 75 x 10\^9/L; Hemoglobin ≥85 g/L; aspartate aminotransferase (AST) or alanine aminotransferase (ALT) ≤ 3 x upper limit of normal (ULN) , or ≤ 5 x ULN if liver cancer or liver metastases are present. Total bilirubin \< 1.5 x ULN , or \< 3.0 x ULN for subjects with liver cancer or liver metastases or documented Gilbert's syndrome (unconjugated hyperbilirubinemia); Serum creatinine (Scr) \<1.5×ULN, or creatinine clearance (Ccr) \> 50 mL/min according to Cockcroft-Gault equation; international normalized ratio (INR) and activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) \< 1.5 ULN; * A woman of child-bearing potential (WOCBP) must have a negative serum pregnancy test prior to initiation of study treatment (serum pregnancy test is not required for females of nonchild-bearing potential who have undergone surgical sterilization, such as hysterectomy and/or bilateral oophorectomy, or those who have not experienced menses for 12 consecutive months and are judged to be postmenopausal based on factors such as age and castration therapy). * Subjects must agree to use adequate contraceptive methods prior to initiation of study treatment, during the study, and for at least 28 days following the last dose of YZJ-5053 tablets. Exclusion Criteria: * Female subjects who are pregnant or breast-feeding. * History of malignancy within 3 years prior to screening, with the exception of the cancer under investigation in this study and curatively treated carcinoma in situ of the cervix, non-melanoma skin cancer, localized prostate cancer or any other tumor that has been treated curatively and with no evidence of disease for at least 3 years (for indication expansion phase \[1b\] only). * Presence of uncontrolled pleural effusion, pericardial effusion, or ascites that require recurrent drainage procedures (monthly or more frequently). * Impaired cardiac function or clinically significant cardiovascular disease. * Conditions or diseases that impair gastrointestinal (GI) function which may significantly alter the absorption of YZJ-5053 tables (e.g. ulcerative diseases, uncontrolled nausea, vomiting, diarrhea, malabsorption syndrome, or small bowel resection). * Subjects with active infection requiring intravenous (IV) antibiotics at the time of screening or within 2 weeks prior to initiation of study treatment. * Subjects with positive HIV antibody, or positive hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) with hepatitis B virus (HBV) DNA ≥2×10\^3 IU/ml (equivalent to 10\^4 copies/ml), or positive hepatitis C virus antibody at the time of screening; * Have received chemotherapy within 3 weeks, and radiotherapy, biological therapy, endocrine therapy, targeted therapy, immunotherapy or any other anti-tumor therapy within 4 weeks prior to initiation of study treatment. * Subject who could not discontinue use of strong inhibitors or strong inducers of Cytochrome P450 3A (CYP3A) and Cytochrome P450 2C8 (CPY2C8) during the study period. * Subjects who have received a live vaccine or live attenuated vaccine within 4 weeks prior to initiation of study treatment. * Subjects who have previously received adenosine A2a receptor (A2aR) antagonists or A2aR/adenosine A2b receptor (A2bR) antagonists. * Adverse events (AEs) from previous antitumor therapy have not recovered to baseline or to CTCAE Grade 1 prior to initiation of study treatment, excluding subjects with alopecia (any grade), peripheral sensory neuropathy (Grade ≤ 2), and any other toxicities of no clinical significance (Grade ≤ 2); * Subjects with a known history of autoimmune thyroid disease such as diffuse toxic goiter (Graves disease) , acute or subacute thyroiditis. Subjects with active autoimmune diseases or a known history of autoimmune diseases that potentially relapsing, exception: Subjects with autoimmune-related hypothyroidism requiring stable dose thyroxine replacement only are eligible; Subjects with type I diabetes mellitus controlled on a stable insulin regimen are eligible; * Subjects who have received systemic corticosteroids (\> 10 mg/day prednisone equivalent) or other systemic immunosuppressants (including but not limited to prednisone, dexamethasone, cyclophosphamide, azathioprine, methotrexate, thalidomide, and anti-tumor necrosis factor drugs) within 4 weeks prior to the initiation of study treatment, but excluded: Locally, ocularly, intra-articularly, intranasally, or inhaled corticosteroids; Subjects receiving acute low-dose systemic immunosuppressive drugs (e.g., single dexamethasone for nausea) may be enrolled after discussion with and approval from medical monitor ; Alternative steroid doses for diseases such as adrenal or pituitary insufficiency are ≤ 10 mg/day in prednisone equivalents; Corticosteroids hydrochloride (eg fludrocortisone) for orthostatic hypotension; Short-term (≤ 7 days) use of steroids for the prevention or treatment of non-autoimmune allergic diseases; Single ues of glucocorticoids before enhanced-imaging for prevention of contrast agent allergy; * Major surgical procedures, within 4 weeks prior to initiation of study treatment, or anticipation of need for major surgical procedure during the study period. * Other severe and/or uncontrolled concomitant medical conditions that could cause unacceptable safety risks or compromise compliance with the protocol. * Presence of other conditions, therapy, or laboratory abnormalities that, in the opinion of the investigator, might confound the results of the study and interfere with the subject's participation.
