New hope for melanoma patients when standard immunotherapy fails

NCT ID NCT04971499

Summary

This study is testing whether adding an experimental drug called dapansutrile to the standard immunotherapy pembrolizumab can help patients with advanced melanoma whose cancer has stopped responding to PD-1 drugs alone. The trial has two parts: first finding the safest dose, then testing how well the combination works. It's for adults with advanced melanoma that has continued to grow despite previous immunotherapy treatment.
