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

Summary

This study tested a combination of two drugs, pembrolizumab and lenvatinib, in 43 people with advanced thymic carcinoma or a related thymoma that had worsened after standard chemotherapy. The goal was to see if the combination could stop or slow cancer growth. Participants received the drugs by mouth and through an IV, and researchers tracked how long they lived without their cancer getting worse.
