Summary

This study tested a combination of two drugs—sEphB4-HSA and pembrolizumab—in 42 people with advanced non-small cell lung cancer or head/neck cancer that had spread or returned. The goal was to see if the combo could shrink tumors better than standard treatments. Participants had already tried chemotherapy or other targeted therapies. The trial measured how many patients responded and tracked side effects.
