a first-in-human study of bgb-53038, a pan-kras inhibitor, alone or in combinations in participants with advanced or metastatic solid tumors with kras mutations or amplification

Conditions: Metastatic Solid Tumors; Advanced Non-squamous Non-small-cell Lung Cancer; Advanced Colorectal Cancer; Advanced Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma; Advanced Gastric Cancer; Advanced Gastroesophageal Junction Cancer; Advanced Esophageal Adenocarcinoma

Summary: this is a first-in-human (fih), open-label, multicenter, dose escalation and dose expansion study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (pk), pharmacodynamics, and preliminary antitumor activity of bgb-53038 as monotherapy in participants with advanced or metastatic solid tumors harboring kras mutations or amplification, as well as when used in combination with tislelizumab (also known as bgb-a317) in participants with nonsquamous non-small cell lung cancer (nsclc) and used in combination with cetuximab in participants with colorectal cancer (crc). the study consists of 2 phases: phase 1a dose escalation and safety expansion and phase 1b dose expansion.
