Summary

This early-phase study tests whether adding lamivudine, an HIV medication, can help control advanced solid tumors that no longer respond to standard immunotherapy. About 12 adults with various solid cancers will receive lamivudine alongside their current immunotherapy. The goal is to see if the combination is safe and can shrink tumors or slow their growth.
