Study of Neladalkib (NVL-655) for ALK-Positive Cancers

This study is testing a new oral tablet called Neladalkib (NVL-655) for people with advanced solid tumors, including non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), that have an ALK rearrangement or mutation. ALK is a specific change in cancer cells that can be targeted by certain medicines. The study aims to find a safe and effective dose of Neladalkib (NVL-655) and see how well it shrinks tumors. You might be eligible if you have an ALK-positive cancer and are at least 12 years old, depending on the specific part of the study. The study also includes other medications like Midazolam, Repaglinide, and Itraconazole to understand how Neladalkib (NVL-655) interacts with other drugs. The study is currently unclear on its recruitment status and plans to enroll 840 participants.

Study design
This is a Phase 1/2 study that will first find a safe dose of Neladalkib (NVL-655) and then test how well it works. It is designed to enroll 840 participants.
What's involved
Not specified in the trial record.
Compensation
Not stated in the trial record.
Follow-up
The study will measure how well the treatment works for 2-3 years after the first patient receives the drug.
