Blood test could predict which melanoma patients benefit from immunotherapy

NCT ID NCT05105100

Summary

This research study aimed to understand how immune cells in the blood might predict whether melanoma patients respond to pembrolizumab immunotherapy. Researchers followed 25 patients with advanced melanoma who were starting standard pembrolizumab treatment. They analyzed blood samples to identify patterns in immune cells that could indicate whether the treatment would work or if resistance might develop.
