Scientists test Double-Punch immune therapy for tough cancers

NCT ID NCT03030378

Summary

This early-stage study is testing a new combination of two immunotherapy drugs, pembrolizumab and interleukin-12, for people with advanced solid tumors that have spread or cannot be removed by surgery. The main goals are to find the safest dose and understand the side effects. Researchers hope this two-drug approach will help the body's immune system fight cancer more effectively than one drug alone.
