Overview

This is a single arm,open-label, multicentric, phase II study to evaluate the efficacy and safety of KC1036 in patients with advanced recurrent or metastatic thymoma or thymic carcinoma.

Description

Thymus tumor is a relatively rare type of thoracic tumor. Patients with thymus tumor who have failed to receive first-line chemotherapy lack of effective therapeutic drugs and clinical need is urgent. Previous phase I study showed that KC1036 has a good therapeutic effect in patients with advanced thymic tumors, and KC1036 is safe and well tolerated in patients with advanced tumors. This study further explored the efficacy and safety of KC1036 in patients with advanced thymic tumors.

Patients will receive continuous treatment with oral KC1036 60 mg once daily. Each cycle will be considered as 21 days of treatment; safety was assessed every 21 days. Tumor assessement will be done every two cycles. Treatment should be administered until documented disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, or patient refusal.

FAQs

Learn more about clinical trials

What is a clinical trial?

A clinical trial is a study designed to test specific interventions or treatments' effectiveness and safety, paving the way for new, innovative healthcare solutions.

Why should I take part in a clinical trial?

Participating in a clinical trial provides early access to potentially effective treatments and directly contributes to the healthcare advancements that benefit us all.

How long does a clinical trial take place?

The duration of clinical trials varies. Some trials last weeks, some years, depending on the phase and intention of the trial.

Do I get compensated for taking part in clinical trials?

Compensation varies per trial. Some offer payment or reimbursement for time and travel, while others may not.

How safe are clinical trials?

Clinical trials follow strict ethical guidelines and protocols to safeguard participants' health. They are closely monitored and safety reviewed regularly.
