Scientists dig into tumor DNA to solve immunotherapy resistance mystery

NCT ID NCT03291028

First seen May 23, 2026 ยท Last updated May 23, 2026

Summary

This study looks at tumor samples from 15 people with kidney or bladder cancer whose cancer came back after immunotherapy. Researchers compare the genes and structure of the original tumor with the new growth to find clues about why the cancer became resistant. The goal is to better understand how these cancers escape treatment, not to test a new therapy.
