Multiple clinical trials are currently evaluating the safety and therapeutic efficacy of Lixumistat (IM156). A completed Phase 1 trial sponsored by ImmunoMet Therapeutics, Inc. assessed the safety, tolerability, and preliminary efficacy of IM156 in patients with advanced solid tumors. Furthermore, M.D. Anderson Cancer Center is sponsoring an active, non-recruiting Phase 1b trial investigating IM156 in combination with gemcitabine and nab-paclitaxel for advanced pancreatic cancer.
