Recruiting PHASE1 Melanoma

Tests treatment safety and results for Melanoma

Official title Safety of SBRT With Anti-PD1 and Anti-IL-8 for the Treatment of Multiple Metastases in Advanced Solid Tumors and Melanoma

ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT04572451

What this study is testing

What is nivolumab?

nivolumab is an investigational medicine, given as an infusion into a vein, being studied as a potential treatment for melanoma.

Also referred to as Opdivo®, Anti-PD-1.

Plain-language explanation of the investigational treatment - it is being studied and is not an approved or proven therapy. The study team can confirm the details.

What it's testing
Nivolumab (and other agents affecting the anti-programmed death-1 [anti-PD-1] pathway) have demonstrated anti-tumor activity in multiple tumor types. Combinations of immune-oncology (IO) agents with complimentary mechanisms as well as radiation represent a promising strategy to improve response rates to immunotherapy and overcome resistance.
