Study Overview |
Milademetan belongs to a new class of drugs called MDM2 inhibitors which restore the function of TP53, an important gene which helps control cell growth. In cancers, too much MDM2 can block normal TP53 function and contribute to cancer growth. This study tests milademetan, a pill therapy, as treatment for cancers which have too much MDM2. |

Study Purpose |
- Restoration of TP53 tumor suppressor gene function in cancer patients with excess MDM2 gene activity
- Normal TP53 helps control cell growth and is balanced by MDM2 activity
- In cancers, excess MDM2 can reduce/inhibit normal TP53 gene function which contributes to abnormal cancer cell growth
- Too many gene copies (gene amplification) of MDM2 is one way cancer cells create excess MDM2 activity
- Milademetan is a pill inhibitor of excess MDM2 activity and can restore normal TP53 gene function
|
Inclusion Criteria |

- Have received all appropriate treatment or unlikely to benefit from usual available therapy
- Have a tumor test or blood test that shows MDM2 gene amplification
- Be age 18 and older
- Have good bone marrow, liver and kidney functions when measured by blood tests
|
Exclusion Criteria |
- Have a diagnosis of leukemia, lymphoma, liposarcoma, intimal sarcoma, or primary brain tumor
- Have tumor in the brain which has not been treated or is not controlled

- Have prior experimental therapy with other MDM2 inhibitors
