Research summary
Cancer occurs due to an abnormal growth of cells in the body. The KRAS gene is important in regulating cell growth and survival. Mutations (or errors in the genetic code) in the KRAS gene are commonly found in cancers and often associated with poor prognosis. One specific type of KRAS mutation, G12C, occurs in non-small cell lung cancer (a type of lung cancer), colorectal cancer (cancer of the bowels) and other solid tumours at a frequency of about ~12%, ~4% and ≤4%, respectively.
GDC-6036 is a new drug specifically designed to target the G12C mutation of the KRAS gene. In mice models it slowed or stopped the growth of cancer cells. GDC-6036 is an experimental drug, which means health authorities have not approved it for the treatment of cancer either alone or in combination with other anti-cancer drugs, and it has not been tested in people prior to this study. This will be the first time that GDC-6036 will be given to humans.
The drug will be tested by itself and in combination with other treatments relevant to specific cancer types. This is an open-label study, which means that you and your doctor will know the dose level of the study drug and study drug treatment to which you are assigned, and you will not be treated with a placebo (an inactive substance).
The study is divided into two parts, stage I and stage II. In stage I, approximately 12 patients will receive the drug alone or in combination with another treatment to identify the best doses to use. When a safe and tolerable dose has been determined, approximately 20 patients will be enrolled in stage II.REC name
