Experimental cancer vaccine teams up with immunotherapy in early trial

NCT ID NCT02432963

Summary

This early-phase study is testing the safety of combining a new cancer vaccine with an existing immunotherapy drug (pembrolizumab) in patients with advanced solid tumors that have spread and stopped responding to standard treatments. The vaccine is designed to train the immune system to recognize and attack cancer cells that have a specific genetic marker (p53). Researchers want to see if this combination is safe and can trigger a stronger anti-cancer immune response.
