Summary

"This trial aims to test if NP-101 is safe and potentially effective for treating patients with solid tumors."

Who is the study for?
Adults with advanced solid tumors that have worsened after treatment or lack standard options can join. They must be in good health otherwise, with proper organ/marrow function and a life expectancy over 3 months. Participants need to agree to contraception use and biopsies/blood tests. Those who've had recent treatments must wait before joining.
What is being tested?
The trial is testing NP-101's safety and early effectiveness on various solid tumors. It has two parts: first, finding the right dose (dose escalation), then seeing how well it works at that dose (dose expansion). Patients will take NP-101 orally.
What are the potential side effects?
Specific side effects of NP-101 are not listed but may include typical reactions seen with cancer drugs such as nausea, fatigue, allergic responses, or issues related to organ functions affected by the drug.
