NCT ID NCT03049618
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
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 approach aims to control the disease rather than cure it.
