Scientists test Two-Pronged attack on tough cancers

NCT ID NCT02856425

Summary

This early-stage trial tested a new combination of two existing drugs—an immunotherapy (pembrolizumab) and a drug that blocks blood vessel growth (nintedanib)—in patients with various advanced solid tumors that had stopped responding to standard treatments. The main goal was to find the highest safe dose of nintedanib when used with pembrolizumab. Researchers hoped the two drugs would work better together to help control cancer growth.
