Cancer patients get extended access to promising immunotherapy
NCT ID NCT03768063
First seen Jun 24, 2026 · Last updated Jul 24, 2026 · Updated 2 times
Summary
This study offers continued treatment with atezolizumab (Tecentriq) to about 1,000 cancer patients who were already benefiting from it in earlier Roche-sponsored trials. Participants may also receive other drugs like bevacizumab or alectinib. The main goal is to provide ongoing access and monitor long-term safety, not to test new effectiveness.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- Atezolizumab (Tecentriq), sometimes with bevacizumab or alectinib
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this study could confirm that long-term atezolizumab treatment is safe and effective for controlling cancer in patients who already responded.
- What could go wrong
- This is an extension study, not a new treatment test. It only includes patients already benefiting, so results may not apply to all cancer patients. Side effects from long-term immune therapy remain possible.
