New hope for Tough-to-Treat mesothelioma

NCT ID NCT03007030

Summary

This study is testing whether the drug brentuximab vedotin can help control advanced malignant mesothelioma that has a specific marker called CD30 and cannot be removed by surgery. About 55 patients who have already tried other treatments will receive the drug through an IV every three weeks. The main goal is to see if the treatment can stop the cancer from growing for at least four months.
