NCT ID NCT04058756
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jul 29, 2026 · Updated 2 times
Summary
This study follows patients with advanced solid tumors who are already benefiting from the cancer drug spartalizumab (PDR001). The goal is to continue monitoring safety and side effects while allowing patients to keep receiving the treatment. About 120 participants are enrolled from earlier Novartis studies.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- spartalizumab (PDR001)
- What this could lead to
- If this trial succeeds, it could provide continued access to spartalizumab for patients who are already benefiting, while gathering long-term safety data.
- What could go wrong
- This is a small, early-phase rollover study, not designed to prove effectiveness. It only includes patients already doing well on the drug, so results may not apply to a broader population.
