NCT ID NCT04916002

First seen Jan 08, 2026 · Last updated May 09, 2026 · Updated 21 times

Summary

This study tested whether injecting a drug called vidutolimod directly into tumors, combined with an intravenous immunotherapy (cemiplimab), could shrink or control advanced cancers like Merkel cell carcinoma, skin cancer, breast cancer, and lung cancer. The trial enrolled 77 adults with measurable disease. However, the study was terminated early, so final results are limited. The goal was to see how many participants responded and whether the combination was safe.
