HIV drug repurposed in fight against Tough-to-Treat vulvar cancer

NCT ID NCT04169763

Summary

This early-stage study is testing whether adding an HIV drug called nelfinavir to standard chemotherapy (cisplatin) and radiation can better control advanced vulvar cancer that cannot be removed by surgery. The main goal is to find the safest and most effective dose of nelfinavir for this combination. The study will enroll about 25 patients to carefully monitor side effects and see if the three-part treatment helps control the cancer and improve survival.
