FORTIFY Trial Summary
This trial is testing a new drug, NG-350A, in combination with pembrolizumab to treat patients with advanced epithelial tumors.

Participants must have a measurable disease site, be in good physical condition (ECOG 0-1), and have proper organ function. They should not have significant infection risks, bleeding disorders, recent vaccinations, autoimmune diseases requiring recent treatment, certain drug treatments within specific time frames before the trial starts, active brain metastases, or known allergies to study drugs.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The FORTIFY trial is testing NG-350A combined with Pembrolizumab on patients with metastatic or advanced epithelial tumors. It's an early-phase study (phase 1a/1b) where all participants receive the experimental therapy without being randomly assigned to different groups.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Possible side effects include reactions related to immune system activation such as inflammation of organs and infusion-related reactions. There may also be fatigue, increased risk of infections due to immunosuppression from Pembrolizumab and potential tissue damage at tumor sites.
