Direct tumor shots tested to revive immune attack on stubborn melanoma

NCT ID NCT04796194

Summary

This study tested a new approach for patients with advanced melanoma that had stopped responding to standard immunotherapy. Doctors injected an experimental drug called LTX-315 directly into accessible tumors, while also giving the immunotherapy drug pembrolizumab. The goal was to see if this combination could help the immune system recognize and fight the cancer again, and to check if it was safe for the 23 patients in the trial.
