Study Summary

This trial tests a new drug to treat lung and prostate cancers.

Who is the study for?
Adults with specific cancers (NRG1+ NSCLC or mCRPC) who have tried standard treatments without success, or those for whom standard treatments are not suitable. Participants must be in good physical condition, with a life expectancy of at least 12 weeks and normal heart function. They should have no serious infections like hepatitis B/C or HIV, no recent heart attacks, and must agree to use contraception.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The trial is testing Zenocutuzumab alone or combined with other cancer drugs (Afatinib, Enzalutamide, Abiraterone acetate) on patients with NRG1+ non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) or metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). It's an open-label study where everyone knows what treatment they're getting.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Possible side effects include reactions related to the immune system such as inflammation in different organs; gastrointestinal issues; fatigue; blood-related problems like changes in counts of white cells, red cells, and platelets which could affect immunity and oxygen transport; liver enzyme alterations indicating potential liver damage.

Study Objectives

Outcome measures can provide a clearer picture of what you can expect from a treatment.
Primary outcome measures
Group A: Evaluate efficacy of zenocutuzumab in combination with afatinib in terms of response.
Group B: Evaluate efficacy of zenocutuzumab in combination with enzalutamide or abiraterone acetate in terms of Prostate-Specific antigen level ≥ 50% (PSA50) response.
Secondary outcome measures
Group A: Area under the concentration versus time curve [AUC0-∞] of afatinib when given in combination with zenocutuzumab
Afatinib
Group A: Area under the concentration versus time curve from time zero to time t [AUC0-t] afatinib when given in combination with zenocutuzumab
