First-in-Human trial tests direct tumor injection to fight deadly pancreatic cancer
NCT ID NCT00669734
Summary
This early-stage study is testing a new vaccine therapy for people with advanced pancreatic cancer that cannot be removed by surgery. The goal is to find a safe dose and see if injecting the vaccine directly into the tumor, along with an immune-boosting drug, can help the body's own immune system recognize and attack the cancer cells. Researchers will monitor side effects and check if the treatment causes an immune response against the tumor.
