Study to Evaluate VT3989 in Patients With Metastatic Solid Tumors
What this study is about
This is an where both patients and doctors know the treatment given, gradually increasing doses and expansion study to evaluate the safety, tolerability, PK, and biological activity of VT3989 administered, alone or in combination, once daily in patients with mesothelioma and/or metastatic solid tumors that are resistant to standard therapy or for which no effective standard therapy is available.

Who can participate
This study lists these criteria on ClinicalTrials.gov. A study coordinator reviews eligibility during screening — this page does not determine whether you qualify.
Inclusion criteria
- Part 1: Patients with pathologically diagnosed metastatic solid tumor or mesothelioma who have progressed on or after all approved therapies of known clinical benefit except if the patient refuses or is not a candidate for such therapy.
- Part 2 Expansion Cohorts 1 and 2: In mesothelioma cohorts, patients with pathologically diagnosed advanced malignant mesothelioma with or without NF2 mutations, who have progressed on or after all approved therapies of known clinical benefit except if the patient refuses or is not a candidate for such therapy.
- Part 2 Expansion Cohort 3: Only non-pleural mesothelioma patients with epithelioid histology, who have relapsed from or are refractory to prior platinum-based chemotherapy and immunotherapy.
- Part 2 Expansion Cohort 4: in the solid tumor cohort, patients with pathologically diagnosed metastatic or locally advanced solid tumor with clearly inactivating NF2 mutations/alterations or YAP/TAZ gene rearrangements, who have pr

Frequently asked questions
What is a clinical trial?
A clinical trial is a research study that tests new medical treatments, drugs, devices, or procedures to determine their safety and effectiveness. Trials are carefully designed and monitored to protect participants while advancing medical knowledge.
Is it safe to participate?
Clinical trials follow strict safety guidelines and ethical standards. Trials must be reviewed and approved, and participants are closely monitored by medical professionals throughout the study. You can withdraw at any time if you choose.
Will I be compensated?
Many clinical trials offer compensation for your time, travel expenses, and inconvenience. The specific compensation varies by study and will be discussed during the screening process. All study-related medical care is typically provided at no cost to participants.
Will I receive a placebo instead of treatment?
When effective treatment exists, participants typically receive either the standard treatment plus the study intervention, or the standard treatment plus placebo. You would not be denied effective care. Placebos are primarily used when no proven treatment is available, or in addition to standard care. Your trial consent form will clearly explain what treatments you may receive.
Can I leave a trial if I change my mind?
Absolutely. Participation in clinical trials is completely voluntary. You have the right to withdraw from the study at any time, for any reason, without penalty or loss of benefits to which you are otherwise entitled.
How long does a clinical trial last?
Trial duration varies widely depending on the study design and purpose. Some trials last just a few weeks, while others may continue for months or years. The study coordinator will provide specific timeline information during your screening call.
