AU409 for the Treatment of Advanced Primary Liver Cancers or Solid Tumor With Liver Metastatic Disease
United States36 participantsStarted 2023-03-29
Plain-language summary
This phase I trial tests the safety, side effects, and best dose of a new intervention, AU409, in treating patients with primary liver cancers that may have spread from where it first started to nearby tissue, lymph nodes, or distant parts of the body (advanced) or advanced solid tumors that have spread to the liver (liver metastatic disease). AU409 may stop cancer from growing and spreading. This trial may help researchers determine if AU409 is safe and effective in treating patients with liver cancers and solid tumors with liver metastatic disease.

AI-rewrites the medical criteria so a patient or caregiver can understand them. Always confirm with the trial site.
Inclusion Criteria:
* Age \>= 18 years old
* Patients must have histopathologically /cytologically confirmed advanced solid tumor, which is refractory to standard therapeutic options, or for which there are no standard therapeutic options. Failure of all approved therapies that have a marginal impact on survival is not required as long as the treating physician considers that treatment on study is appropriate for the subject and documents that the subject elects to defer the approved therapies
* During the dose-escalation portion, patients must have primary liver malignancy (including hepatocellular carcinoma or cholangiocarcinoma) OR a solid tumor with liver dominant disease; liver dominant disease is defined as the majority of the tumor burden being in the liver per investigator assessment AND no more than two extrahepatic sites of disease (site of disease refers to organ or system). During the dose expansion portion of the study, eligibility may be limited to one or more tumor types depending on findings from the dose-escalation phase; this will be clarified in an amendment
* Patients must have Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of 0 or 1
* Patient must have recovered from any toxic effects of previous chemotherapy, targeted therapy or radiotherapy as judged by the Investigator to =\< grade 1 (except for alopecia). Residual sensory neuropathy =\< grade 2 is allowed. Residual endocrine adverse events (such as hypothyroidism or hypoadrenalism) that…
Questions worth asking your doctor
Bring these to your next appointment. They're a starting point for a shared conversation — not a sign you qualify or a recommendation to enrol.
1Based on my diagnosis and history, is this trial worth exploring for me — or is there a standard treatment we should try first?
2What does this trial's phase tell us about how much is already known about its safety and benefit?
3What would taking part actually involve for me — visits, tests, time, and travel?
4What are the known and possible risks or side effects I should weigh, and how would they be monitored?
5If this trial isn't the right fit, what other options or trials would you suggest I look into?
Generated to help you prepare — always confirm anything about your own eligibility and care with the study team and your doctor.
Questions for the trial coordinator
The trial coordinator is the person who runs the study day to day. These cover the practical side — logistics, costs, and what taking part would actually mean for your life. The study team confirms whether you meet the criteria; these are questions to ask, not a sign you qualify.
1What does taking part actually involve week to week — how many visits, where, and how long does each one take?
2What costs are covered by the study, and what might I have to pay for myself, including travel, parking, or time off work?
3What happens during screening, and what happens if the study team confirms I don't meet the criteria after those tests?
4Who pays for the scans, blood work, and other tests the trial requires — the study, my insurance, or me?
5How will being in the trial affect my regular care, and will my own doctor stay informed and involved?
6Can I leave the trial at any point if I change my mind, and what would happen to my care if I do?
A starting point for the conversation — always confirm anything about your own eligibility, costs, and care with the study team and your doctor.
