Clinical summary

Summary

This is a dose escalation and expansion trial, consisting of two parallel cohorts of patients (high grade serous ovarian cancer and non-small cell lung cancer). In the dose escalation part of the trial, increasing doses of XMT-1592 will be administered to groups of patients over time, until the maximum tolerated dose is achieved. In the dose expansion (confirmation) part of the trial, new groups of patients will receive XMT-1592 at the maximum tolerated dose to confirm the recommended Phase 2 dose. XMT-1592 will be administered once every 21 days.

Conditions

This trial is treating people with high grade serous ovarian cancer or non-small cell lung cancer
