Summary

This study tests whether giving a lower dose of the cancer drug atezolizumab less often can still control tumors while causing fewer side effects. About 30 adults with advanced cancers like lung, liver, or melanoma will receive the drug, with doses adjusted based on blood levels. The goal is to find a safer, more convenient dosing schedule without losing effectiveness.
