ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is studying a new treatment called KB707 for adults with certain types of cancer, specifically those whose cancer has either spread or is difficult to treat with standard therapies. The study aims to find out how safe KB707 is and how well it works when injected directly into the tumors of patients who have not had success with other treatments, cannot tolerate them, or do not have any other treatment options available.

To participate, individuals must be at least 18 years old, have a confirmed diagnosis of a specific type of solid tumor, and have a life expectancy of more than 12 weeks. They should also have at least one tumor that can be safely injected. Participants will receive KB707 as an injection into their tumors and will be monitored for any side effects and how well the treatment works. This trial is currently recruiting participants, and it provides a new option for those who are facing challenging cancer situations.
