Radiation plus immunotherapy: a new hope for melanoma?
NCT ID NCT01416831
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study compares two treatments for metastatic melanoma that has spread: high-dose Interleukin-2 (IL-2) alone versus IL-2 combined with targeted radiation (SBRT). The goal is to see if adding radiation helps shrink tumors better than IL-2 alone. The trial enrolled 44 adults with tumors that could be safely radiated.
