About this study

Official title: A Phase 1/2 Study of Oral MRT-2359 in Patients With MYC-Driven and Other Selected Solid Tumors Including Lung Cancer and Diffuse B-Cell Lymphoma

This Phase 1/2, open-label, multicenter study is conducted in patients with previously treated selected solid tumors, including non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), small cell lung cancer (SCLC), high-grade neuroendocrine cancer of any primary site, diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL), and tumors with L-MYC or N-MYC amplification. Patients receive escalating doses of a GSPT1 molecular glue degrader MRT-2359 to determine safety, tolerability, maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and/or recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) of MRT-2359. Once the MTD and/or RP2D is identified, additional patients enroll to Phase 2 study, which includes molecular biomarkers stratification or selection, namely expression or amplification of L-MYC and N-MYC genes, hormone receptor positive (HR)-positive, human epidermal growth factor 2 (HER2)-negative breast cancer and prostate cancer.

Read the detailed description

This Phase 1/2, open-label, multicenter, dose escalation and expansion study to assess the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetic (PK), pharmacodynamic (PD), and preliminary clinical activity of MRT-2359 in patients with previously treated selected solid tumors, including lung cancer (NSCLC and SCLC), high-grade neuroendocrine cancer of any primary site, and DLBCL.

  • The primary aim of Phase 1 part is safety, tolerability, MTD and/or RP2D of MRT-2359.
  • The primary aim of Phase 2 part is assessment of preliminary anti-tumor activity of MRT-2359.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Phase 1 Evaluates safety and tolerability of MRT-2359 over a 28-day cycle by the occurrence and frequency of dose limiting toxicities (DLTs) for determination of the MTD and/or RP2D

    Measured: 28 days

  2. Phase 2 Evaluates preliminary anti-tumor activity of MRT-2359 by overall response rate (ORR) as determined by RECIST 1.1

    Measured: 56 days (up to approximately 24 months from screening to end of study participation

Secondary outcomes (11)
  1. Phase 1 safety and tolerability of MRT-2359 (orally over a 28-day cycle) by the nature, incidence, and severity of all treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs), including treatment-related TEAEs and serious adverse events (SAEs)

    Measured: 18 months

  2. Phase 1 preliminary anti-tumor activity: ORR (RECIST 1.1/Revised Response Criteria for Malignant Lymphoma),duration of response for complete response(CR)/partial response(PR), disease control rate, progression-free survival, overall survival

    Measured: 18 months

  3. Phase 1 Dose Escalation characterizes the PK profile of MRT-2359 by standard primary PK parameters including, but not limited to, AUC, Cmax, tmax, and t1/2

    Measured: 28 days

  4. Phase 1 Dose Escalation evaluates the effect of a high-fat meal on the relative bioavailability of MRT-2359 by standard primary PK parameters including, but not limited to, AUC and Cmax

    Measured: 7 days

  5. Phase 2 Dose Expansion evaluates the safety and tolerability of MRT-2359 administered orally over a 28-day cycle by the nature, incidence, and severity of all TEAEs, including treatment-related TEAEs and SAEs according to the NCI CTCAE, version 5.0

    Measured: 24 months

  6. Phase 2 Dose Expansion evaluates additional measures of the preliminary anti-tumor activity of MRT-2359 such as DoR (in patients with the best overall response of CR or PR)

    Measured: 24 months

  7. Phase 2 Dose Expansion further characterizes the PK profile of MRT-2359 by evaluating MRT-2359 plasma concentration to establish PK parameters including, but not limited to, Cmax, tmax, AUC0-t, AUC0inf, mean residence time, accumulation ratio, etc.

    Measured: 28 days

  8. Phase 2 Dose Expansion evaluates additional measures of the preliminary anti-tumor activity of MRT-2359 such as DCR

    Measured: 24 months

  9. Phase 2 Dose Expansion evaluates additional measures of the preliminary anti-tumor activity of MRT-2359 such as PFS

    Measured: 24 months

  10. Phase 2 Dose Expansion evaluates additional measures of the preliminary anti-tumor activity of MRT-2359 such as OS

    Measured: 24 months

  11. Phase 2 Dose Expansion evaluates additional measures of the preliminary anti-tumor activity of MRT-2359 such as PSA response

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1/2 study testing Oral MRT-2359 in people with NSCLC and SCLC, run by Monte Rosa Therapeutics, Inc at 17 sites in United States.

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 0 inclusion and 17 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 6 Nov 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 17 sites in United States. 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 combined 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.

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

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?

Phase 1 Evaluates safety and tolerability of MRT-2359 over a 28-day cycle by the occurrence and frequency of dose limiting toxicities (DLTs) for determination of the MTD and/or RP2D (time frame: 28 days). The study lists 2 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 6 Nov 2026.
