NCT ID NCT01701674

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

Summary

This pilot study tested a new combination treatment for people with advanced melanoma that has spread. It combined a patient's own immune cells grown in a lab (called TILs) with an immunotherapy drug called ipilimumab. The main goals were to see if the treatment was safe and possible to give. Only 13 people took part, so the results are very early and need more research.
