A Study to Assess the Safety, Tolerability, and Efficacy of NDI-219216 in Patients With Advanced Solid Tumors.
This research study, called NDI-219216, is looking at a new medicine for people with advanced solid cancers, including those with a specific type called MSI-H cancer. It's being conducted in two main parts, Phase 1 and Phase 2. The main aim is to understand if the new medicine is safe to use and what side effects it might have. Researchers also want to see how the medicine acts in the body and if it has any effect on the size of tumours. Participants will take the medicine daily and attend regular check-ups, helping doctors learn more about this potential new treatment.
At a glance
What is this study about?
This clinical trial is designed to investigate a new medication, NDI-219216, for individuals who have advanced solid cancers. These are cancers that have spread or cannot be removed by surgery. The study also includes people with a specific type of cancer known as MSI-H cancer.
The main purpose of this study is to find out if NDI-219216 is safe for patients and what kinds of mild or serious effects it might have on the body. This is an important first step for any new medicine. Following that, the study will also explore whether NDI-219216 could potentially help by reducing the size of tumours in patients, as a possible future treatment option.
By taking part, you would be helping doctors and researchers understand more about NDI-219216. The information gathered from this study will help decide if this medicine should be tested in larger groups of patients in the future, with the hope of finding new ways to treat advanced solid cancers.
Key takeaways
- This study is testing an experimental medicine (NDI-219216) for advanced solid cancers.
- The main goals are to check if it's safe and if it helps with tumour size.
- Participation involves taking daily medication and regular clinic visits.
- It's an early-stage trial, exploring a potential new treatment option.
- Your general health and specific cancer type will determine if you can join.
Who may be eligible?
To be able to join this study, you would generally need to have an advanced solid cancer that cannot be removed by surgery or has spread. This includes some cancers with a specific characteristic called MSI-H or dMMR. You would also need to have tried standard treatments that didn't work or for which there isn't a current standard treatment available. Your general health should be good enough to take part in the trial, and your body's main organs (like your heart, liver, and kidneys) need to be working well.
There are also some reasons why you might not be able to join. For example, if you have a serious heart condition or a rare genetic condition called WRN syndrome. Also, if you are pregnant, breastfeeding, or planning to become pregnant, you would not be able to participate. Your doctor can help you understand all the specific details of whether this study is right for you, based on your medical history.
- Do I have an advanced solid cancer that has spread or can't be surgically removed?
- Have I tried standard treatments for my cancer, or are there no standard treatments available?
- Is my general health good enough, and are my main organs working well?
- Am I at least 18 years old?
- Am I pregnant, breastfeeding, or planning to become pregnant during the study?
This is a guide only — the research team will confirm whether you can take part.
What does participation involve?
If you join this study, you will take the medicine NDI-219216 by mouth every day. You'll need to attend regular clinic visits for check-ups and tests. In the first month (called Cycle 1), you'll visit the clinic 6 times. In the second month (Cycle 2), you'll visit twice. After that, you'll have one clinic visit each month for as long as you are taking the study medicine.
Throughout the study, you'll be asked to keep a diary to record when you take your tablets and any symptoms you experience. Once you finish taking the study medicine, you'll have a final visit to the clinic. After that, there will be some follow-up checks, which can often be done over the phone. The total duration of your participation will depend on how you respond to the treatment.

Common questions
What is an advanced solid tumour?
An advanced solid tumour is a cancer that started in an organ and has either spread to other parts of the body or cannot be removed through surgery.
What does MSI-H cancer mean?
MSI-H refers to a specific genetic change found in some cancer cells. Doctors test for this to help decide on the best treatments.
Is NDI-219216 a new type of chemotherapy?
The study aims to understand what kind of medicine NDI-219216 is and how it works. It's a new medicine being tested, not necessarily a traditional chemotherapy.
How long will I be on the study medicine?
The length of time you take the medicine will depend on how you respond and how well you tolerate it. Your doctor will discuss this with you.
Will I know if the medicine is working?
Your doctors will regularly check your health and tumour size. They will discuss the results with you and let you know if there are any signs the medicine is having an effect.
