ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is studying a new treatment called AUR105 for adults with advanced cancers, specifically solid tumors and certain types of lymphoma (Non-Hodgkin and Hodgkin lymphoma). The trial has two parts: one where researchers are gradually increasing the dose of AUR105 to find the right amount, and another where they will expand to more participants at the determined effective dose. The goal is to see how safe and effective this medication is for patients who have already tried other treatments without success.

To participate, patients must be at least 18 years old and have a specific type of cancer that has not responded to standard therapies. They should also be in good overall health, with acceptable blood counts and organ function. Participants will be monitored closely throughout the study, and they will receive the new treatment while being supported by the medical team. It's important for patients to know that they cannot be on other cancer treatments or have certain health issues while in the trial. If you or a loved one is interested, discussing eligibility with a healthcare provider can provide more personalized information.
