Summary

This study tested whether combining two drugs, brentuximab vedotin and pembrolizumab, can shrink tumors in people with advanced melanoma, lung cancer, or head and neck cancer that has spread. About 161 adults took part. The main goal was to see how many patients had their tumors shrink or disappear, and to track side effects.
