University of Oklahoma
Summary
The purpose of this research is to test the effectiveness and safety of the study drugs (VS-6766 and defactinib), and see what effects (good and bad) these drugs have on the patients with endometrioid cancer, mucinous ovarian cancer, high-grade serous ovarian cancer, or solid gynecological cancer.
Description
This is a single-stage exploratory, Phase 2, multicenter, parallel cohort, open label study designed to evaluate efficacy and safety of VS-6766 + defactinib.
