The goal of this clinical study is to learn more about the study drug, GS-5319, its dosing, safety and tolerability in adults with solid tumors, where the participants show a specific gene alteration in the tumor. The gene helps produce methylthioadenosine phosphorylase (MTAP) enzyme. MTAP enzyme helps in normal growth of cells. The primary objectives of the study are to assess the safety and tolerability of GS-5319 in participants with methylthioadenosine phosphorylase (MTAP)-deleted advanced solid tumors and to identify the maximum tolerated dose (MTD)/maximum administered dose (MAD) and/or the recommended dose for expansion (RDE).
Phase 1 trials primarily test safety and dosing in a small number of participants (typically 20–100). Results do not yet speak to efficacy. FDA approval is typically many years away from this stage.
Currently recruiting: the trial is enrolling patients. A data readout is not expected until after enrollment closes and the follow-up period is complete.
Gilead Sciences (GILD) is the sponsoring company for this trial. BiotechSign currently grades this company F (28/100) based on composite catalyst signals across its full pipeline. This trial is one data point in that overall catalyst picture.
