Clinical trials are an important way to improve treatment for people with cancer. While most are continuing during the COVID-19 pandemic, the period of time that clinical trials are available and recruiting may change quickly. If you would like to get involved in a clinical trial, speak to your treatment team or the health service where the clinical trial is being undertaken, to confirm it is open and appropriate for you. For cancer information and support, call Cancer Council's experienced cancer nurses on 13 11 20 Monday to Friday from 9am-5pm.

Trial Overview Read MoreRead more

This Phase I trial is trying to understand how safe and tolerable a targeted therapy drug (VT3989) is in people with advanced pleural malignant mesothelioma or other metastatic solid tumours.
 

This trial is treating patients with mesothelioma or metastatic solid tumours.

This is a systemic therapy trial.

You may be able to join this trial if:

  • You are able to swallow medication by mouth.
  • You have had treatment but your cancer has gotten worse or has not responded to the treatment you have been given.
  • Your cancer has spread to other parts of the body.

You may be excluded from this trial if:

  • You have a certain disease or psychological condition.

Clinical trials have complex eligibility criteria - talk to your doctor about your interest in this trial.

Summary

This is a sequential assignment trial with two phases. Phase 1 focuses on Dose Escalation. During dose escalation, participants will receive VT3989 dosed orally once per day in 21 day cycles, at escalating dose levels, until the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) or recommended phase 2 dose (RP2D) is determined. Phase 2 focuses on Dose Expansion. During Dose Expansion, participants will be divided into 2 cohorts: Cohort 1 - malignant pleural mesothelioma patients with mutations of NF2 that have progressed on or following standard therapy; and Cohort 2 - solid tumour patients with mutations of NF2 that have progressed on or following standard therapy. Participants will be treated at the MTD or RP2D identified in Part 1, to provide further characterization of the safety, tolerability, efficacy, and biological activity of VT3989. **Update 09/01/2023: PCCTU is currently only recruiting for the mesothelioma cohort**.
