Immunotherapy boosts chemo against rare sarcomas?

NCT ID NCT03719430

First seen Jun 27, 2026 ยท Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study tested whether adding an immunotherapy drug called APX005M to standard chemotherapy (doxorubicin) could help shrink tumors in people with advanced soft tissue sarcoma. 27 adults with certain sarcoma types took part. The goal was to see if the combination was safe and worked better than chemo alone. This is not a cure, but aims to better control the disease.
