NCT ID NCT05918107

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

Summary

This study tested a new drug called PM8002, which targets two proteins that help cancer grow, combined with standard chemotherapy. It involved 31 adults with a rare cancer called malignant mesothelioma that could not be removed by surgery. The goal was to see if the combination shrinks tumors and is safe, but it is not a cure—patients may need ongoing treatment.
