Doctors test engineered virus to attack deadly skin cancer

NCT ID NCT03865212

Summary

This early-phase study tested a genetically modified virus designed to kill melanoma cancer cells. The virus was injected directly into tumors and given intravenously to patients with advanced melanoma that had stopped responding to standard treatments. The main goals were to find the highest safe dose and check for side effects, while also gathering early signs on whether the treatment could shrink tumors.
