About this trial
The study drug TRX-920 Oral Gel contains SN38, an active metabolite of Irinotecan (CPT-11), which is a widely prescribed anti-cancer drug that has been approved in many countries for the treatment of colorectal and pancreatic cancer. TRX-920 is the oral gel formulation that directly contains SN38 instead of Irinotecan. A series of biology and animal studies have demonstrated that the TRX-920 Oral Gel could inhibit tumor growth with fewer side effects compared to Irinotecan.
