Summary

This early-phase study tested the safety of combining two drugs—pembrolizumab and AMG386—in 62 people with advanced solid tumors like melanoma, ovarian, kidney, or colorectal cancer. The goal was to find the safest dose and see if the combination could shrink tumors. While the treatment showed some promise, it is not a cure and requires ongoing management.
