NCT ID NCT07422779
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study is tracking 100 people in Slovenia with advanced melanoma who are receiving first-line immunotherapy drugs like pembrolizumab, nivolumab, or ipilimumab. Researchers want to see how well these treatments work and whether a marker called PD-L1 in tumors or blood can predict response. The goal is to improve treatment decisions for future patients.
