Researchers are testing a new cancer drug called sutetinib maleate in people with advanced lung cancer that has specific uncommon genetic mutations. This is a Phase 2 trial, meaning the drug has already been tested in a small group and now researchers want to see if it works better and remains safe in a larger group of 66 patients. The study is currently accepting new participants.
WHY IT MATTERSIf you have metastatic or locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer with uncommon EGFR mutations, this trial offers access to a potentially new treatment option that may not yet be available outside of clinical research.

A company called Allrock Bio is testing a new oral medication called ROC-101 for pulmonary hypertension (a condition where blood pressure in the lungs becomes dangerously high). This is a Phase 2a trial, which means they're checking if the drug is safe and works well as an add-on treatment. The trial is now enrolling patients across the U.S., Canada, and Europe.
WHY IT MATTERSIf ROC-101 proves effective as an add-on therapy, it could offer pulmonary hypertension patients a new oral option to combine with their existing treatments, potentially improving symptom control.
