770 cancer patients join study to unlock immunotherapy secrets
NCT ID NCT03514368
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tracks 770 adults with advanced solid cancers (like lung, head and neck, melanoma, or bladder cancer) who are receiving immunotherapy. Researchers collect tumor and blood samples over time to find biological markers that predict how well the treatment works or causes side effects. The goal is to learn, not to test a new treatment, so participants continue their regular care.
