Study Overview: This research is for people with advanced solid tumors, like non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), who haven't been cured by other treatments. It's the first time the drug, DS-1062a, is being tested on humans. The study consists of two main parts: Dose Escalation and Dose Expansion. The goal is to find the safest dose and see how well it works on different cancers.
Key Points:
- Study Duration: Expected to last about 6 years, with study sites in the US and Japan.
- Participation Requirements: Multiple visits and tests might be needed. Participants must have advanced cancer that hasn’t responded to other treatments.
- Risks and Benefits: Participants may continue treatment if it's beneficial unless side effects occur or the disease worsens.
Sub-study: A smaller study will compare mouthwashes to prevent mouth sores in participants using DS-1062a. Approximately 76 participants will be involved in this part.
This study is not a quick one. It involves trying to find the best dose and understanding if the treatment works for other cancers too.
