Melanoma drug combo study halted before full results
NCT ID NCT01604889
First seen Apr 24, 2026 · Last updated May 15, 2026 · Updated 4 times
Summary
This study tested a combination of two drugs—ipilimumab (an approved immunotherapy) and epacadostat (an experimental pill)—in people with advanced melanoma that could not be removed by surgery or had spread. The goal was to see if the combination was safe and worked better than ipilimumab alone. Only the first safety part was completed; the study was stopped early for business reasons, not because of safety concerns. About 50 adults took part.
