New combo therapy fights rare, tough cancers

NCT ID NCT02406781

Summary

This study tested whether combining an immunotherapy drug (MK3475) with a low-dose chemotherapy (cyclophosphamide) could help control advanced sarcomas, a group of rare cancers. It involved 129 adults whose cancer had progressed despite prior treatments. The main goal was to see if the combination could shrink tumors or stop them from growing for at least six months.
