What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • GEN-725 tabletsDrug

    Dose-escalation part: Subjects received GEN-725 tablets at doses of 4, 6 and 8 mg. A single oral dose was administered on Cycle 1 Day 1, observation was conducted for 4 days (i.e., after oral administration of 1 GEN-725 tablet followed by a 4-day washout period), then once daily from Day 5 onward. Dosing occurred with 21 days of continuous treatment per cycle (from Day 5 to Day 25).

    Dose-expansion part: Subjects received GEN-725 tablets orally at a dose that depends on the outcome of dose-escalation, administered once daily for 21 consecutive days per cycle.

    Measured: Up to approximately 24 months.

  6. Disease Control Rate (DCR) (Dose-escalation part and dose-expansion part)

    Measured: Up to approximately 24 months.

  7. Duration of Response (DOR) (Dose-escalation part and dose-expansion part)

    Measured: Up to approximately 24 months.

  8. Progression-Free Survival (PFS) (Dose-escalation part and dose-expansion part)

    Measured: Up to approximately 24 months.

  9. Overall Survival (OS) (Dose-escalation part and dose-expansion part)

    Measured: Up to approximately 24 months.

  10. Evaluation of life quality per EORTC QLQ-C30 score changes (Dose-escalation part and dose-expansion part)

    Measured: Up to approximately 24 months.

  11. Incidence and severity of adverse events (AEs) (Dose-expansion part)

    AEs are assessed based on NCI CTCAE v5.0.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 1 study testing GEN-725 tablets in people with Advanced Solid Tumors, run by Henan Genuine Biotech Co., Ltd. at 4 sites in China.

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 16 inclusion and 32 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: looking for participants now, as of the sponsor's last update on 17 Nov 2025. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 4 sites in China. 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?

Contact Caicun Zhou (021-38804518, caicunzhoudr@163.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Number of patients with Dose-Limiting Toxicity (DLT) (Dose-escalation part) (time frame: Day 25). 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 17 Nov 2025.
