Could simple Over-the-Counter drugs supercharge cancer immunotherapy?

NCT ID NCT07661459

First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026

Summary

This study tests whether adjusting common over-the-counter medications can make immune checkpoint inhibitors work better for people with solid tumors. Participants are asked to avoid acetaminophen and cannabis/THC/CBD, while taking aspirin and loratadine (or similar antihistamines) alongside their standard immunotherapy. The goal is to see if this combination improves tumor response at 18 weeks compared to similar patients from past studies.

Active substance

Aspirin, loratadine, acetaminophen avoidance, THC/CBD avoidance

What this could lead to

If successful, this could point to a simple, low-cost way to boost the effectiveness of standard immunotherapy for several types of cancer.

What could go wrong

This is a Phase 2 trial with a moderate number of participants, and results are compared to historical controls, which may not be perfectly matched. The approach may not work for all cancer types or may have limited benefit.
