NCT ID NCT07562841
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This early-stage trial tests whether injecting gold nanoparticles into tumors, followed by radiation and an immunotherapy drug, is safe for people with advanced melanoma. Only 6 participants will be enrolled. The goal is to check for side effects, not to see if the treatment works.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
Active substance
Gold nanoparticles (Au-TMP)
What this could lead to
If successful, this could point toward a new combination treatment that makes advanced melanoma more responsive to therapy.
What could go wrong
This is a very early, small Phase 1 trial with only 6 people, focused on safety. It is not designed to prove effectiveness, and the approach may not work or could cause side effects.
