Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved

Summary

This phase II trial tests a combination of two drugs—Becotatug vedotin (a targeted therapy that attacks cancer cells with a specific protein) and Pucotenlimab (an immunotherapy that boosts the immune system)—in men with advanced penile cancer that is hard to treat with surgery alone. About 60 participants will receive the drugs before surgery to see if it shrinks the tumor enough for complete removal. The goal is to improve outcomes and possibly reduce the extent of surgery needed.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance
Becotatug vedotin (targeted therapy) and Pucotenlimab (immunotherapy)
What this could lead to
If successful, this combination could shrink advanced penile cancer enough to allow complete surgical removal, potentially improving survival and reducing the need for more extensive surgery.
What could go wrong
This is an early phase II trial with only 60 participants, so results may not apply to everyone. Side effects like skin rash, immune reactions, and organ stress are possible, and the treatment may not work for all patients.
