A Study of ZW251 in Participants With Advanced Solid Tumors

Sponsored by Zymeworks BC Inc.

About this study

The purpose of this study is to find out if ZW251, an antibody-drug conjugate targeting glypican-3 (GPC3), is safe and can treat participants with advanced cancers, including hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), squamous cell non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), or germ cell tumors (GCT).

Part 1 (dose escalation) of the study will evaluate the safety and tolerability of ZW251 in HCC, squamous cell NSCLC, and GCT. Part 2 (dose optimization) of the study will further assess safety and potential anti-tumor activity of the ZW251 established recommended doses in HCC.

Only the research team can confirm whether you qualify. The intake questionnaire is the best way to find out.

Completing a questionnaire on Clinably does not enroll you in a clinical trial or confirm your eligibility. Only the research team can determine whether you qualify to participate. These results are based on the information you provide and are intended to help you start a conversation with the research team.
