Key requirements

Who can take part, as listed by the sponsor. Only the study team can confirm whether you are eligible, so take this list to your doctor.

  • Ages 18 to 120 years
  • All sexes
  • No healthy volunteers
  • Adult, Older adult

Who may be able to join

  • Signed informed consent must be obtained prior to participation in the study.
  • Male or female patients must be ≥ 18 years of age.
  • Dose escalation part: patients with histologically or cytologically confirmed diagnosis of advanced (unresectable or metastatic) mesothelioma or other solid tumors. Patients with solid tumors other than mesothelioma must have local available data for loss-of-function NF2/LATS1/LATS2 genetic alterations (truncating mutation or gene deletion; LATS1/LATS2 mutations will only be included in the dose escalation part), or functional YAP/TAZ fusions. Patients with malignant EHE can be enrolled with only histological confirmation of the disease. Patients must have failed available standard therapies, be intolerant of or ineligible for standard therapy, or for whom no standard therapy exists.
  • Dose expansion part: the following patients will be enrolled into 3 different treatment groups:
  • Group 1: Advanced (unresectable or metastatic) MPM patients who have failed available standard therapies for advanced/metastatic disease, be intolerant or ineligible to receive such therapy, or for whom no standard therapy exists.
  • Group 2: Advanced (unresectable or metastatic) solid tumor patients with available local data for NF2 truncating mutation or deletions. Patient must have failed available standard therapies, be intolerant or ineligible to receive such therapy, or for whom no standard therapy exists.

  • Group 3: Advanced (unresectable or metastatic) solid tumor patients with available local data for functional YAP/TAZ fusions. EHE patients can be included with only histological confirmation of the disease. Patient must have failed available standard therapies, be intolerant or ineligible to receive such therapy, or for whom no standard therapy exists.
  • Group 4: Advanced (unresectable or metastatic) non-pleural mesothelioma patients who have failed available standard therapies for advanced/metastatic disease, are intolerant or ineligible to receive such therapy, or for whom no standard therapy exists.
  • Presence of at least one measurable lesion according to mRECIST v1.1 for mesothelioma patients, RECIST v1.1 for patients with other solid tumors, or RANO for patients with primary brain tumors.
  • Patient must have a site of disease amenable to biopsy and be a candidate for tumor biopsy according to the treating institution's guidelines. Patient must be willing to undergo a new tumor biopsy at screening/baseline, and again during therapy on this study. An archival tumor sample may be used at screening. During the dose expansion part of the study, a decision may be made to stop the collection of on-treatment biopsies.

  • ≤ 4 weeks for thoracic radiotherapy to lung fields or limited field radiation for palliation within ≤ 2 weeks prior to the first dose of study treatment. An exception to this exists for patients who have received palliative radiotherapy to bone, who must have recovered from radiotherapy-related toxicities but for whom a 2-week washout period is not required.
  • ≤ 4 weeks or ≤ 5 half-lives (whichever is shorter) for biological therapy (including monoclonal antibodies) or continuous or intermittent small molecule therapeutics or any other investigational agent.
  • ≤3 weeks for treatment with cytotoxic agents or ≤ 6 weeks for cytotoxic agents with risk of major delayed toxicities, such as nitrosoureas and mitomycin C.

About this study

Official title: An Open-label, Multi-center, Phase I Study of Oral IAG933 in Adult Patients With Advanced Mesothelioma and Other Solid Tumors

The purpose of this study is to characterize the safety and tolerability of IAG933 in patients with mesothelioma, NF2/LATS1/LATS2 mutated tumors and tumors with functional YAP/TAZ fusions and to identify the maximum tolerated dose and/or recommended dose.

Read the detailed description

This is a phase I, open-label, multi-center study of IAG933 as a single agent consisting of a dose escalation part, followed by a dose expansion part. The escalation part will characterize the safety and tolerability. After the determination of the recommended dose/maximum tolerated dose, dose expansion will assess the preliminary anti-tumor activity in defined patient populations and further assess the safety and tolerability at RD/MTD.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing IAG933 in people with Mesothelioma, run by Novartis Pharmaceuticals at 16 sites in 11 countries.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 10 inclusion and 20 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: under way, not looking for participants, as of the sponsor's last update on 22 Jun 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 16 sites in United States, Italy, Australia, Canada, France and 6 more countries. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 1 studies test a treatment in a small group of people for the first time or in a new way, mainly to check safety and find the right dose.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Number of patients with adverse events and serious adverse events (time frame: 3 years). The study lists 3 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 22 Jun 2026.
