Summary
This study tests whether giving the drug cemiplimab before a lymph node biopsy can prevent Merkel cell carcinoma from spreading to nearby lymph nodes. About 135 adults with early-stage Merkel cell carcinoma (stage I or II) whose primary tumor has been removed will receive either cemiplimab or a placebo before their scheduled lymph node biopsy. The goal is to see if the drug reduces the chance of finding cancer cells in the lymph nodes.
