Summary

This study tests a treatment made from two viruses designed to find and kill cancer cells that have a specific marker called MAGE-A3. The viruses also help the immune system attack the tumour. The study includes 56 adults with advanced solid tumours that have not responded to standard treatments. The goal is to see if the treatment is safe and can shrink tumours.
