Actual date on which the first participant was enrolled.

This study focuses on testing a new treatment called WEF-001 for people with advanced solid tumors that have a specific change in their KRAS gene. The goal is to understand how safe and tolerable this treatment is and to see how it behaves in the body. This research is important because KRAS mutations are challenging to treat, and finding effective therapies could greatly improve outcomes for patients dealing with these types of cancers. Participants in this study will receive WEF-001 as a single treatment. Researchers will observe how the drug is processed in the body and will monitor any potential side effects. The study also aims to gather early data on how well the treatment might work against the cancer. By focusing on safety and how the drug interacts with the body, the study aims to lay the groundwork for future research that could lead to better treatment options for patients with these difficult-to-treat tumors.
