Summary

This study looks at whether a blood test that detects tumor DNA can help doctors decide when to stop immunotherapy in people with advanced melanoma or lung cancer. About 39 patients who have been on immunotherapy for at least a year and show good response will be followed. The goal is to see if those with no tumor DNA in their blood can safely stop treatment without the cancer coming back.
