Recruiting at 59 sites Phase 2 Endometrial Adenocarcinoma

Clinical trial for Endometrial Adenocarcinoma

Official title A Phase 2 Study of ACR-368 in Endometrial Adenocarcinoma

ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT05548296

What this study is testing

What is ACR-368?

This is an investigational medicine being studied as a potential treatment for endometrial cancer. is designed to stop cancer cells from dividing by blocking a protein called PLK1.

Also referred to as prexasertib.

Plain-language explanation of the investigational treatment. It is being studied and is not an approved or proven therapy. The study team can confirm the details.

What it's testing
This study is testing whether ACR-368 works and is safe for people with endometrial cancer, and if adding a very small dose of gemcitabine helps.
Who it's for
You may be able to join if you have endometrial cancer and meet the study’s health criteria.
What's involved
You will receive ACR-368, either by itself or with a tiny dose of gemcitabine, and will have regular check‑ins to track how you feel and any side effects.
Time commitment
The study lasts several months and includes multiple visits for treatment and monitoring.
