One-Dose immunotherapy before surgery shows promise for advanced melanoma
NCT ID NCT07349303
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether one dose of the immunotherapy drug pembrolizumab, given before standard surgery, can shrink or eliminate tumors in people with stage IIb/c melanoma. About 30 adults with thick melanomas that haven't spread to lymph nodes will receive either pembrolizumab or a placebo, then have surgery four weeks later. The main goal is to see how many patients have a significant reduction in tumor cells after just one treatment.
