Official title XL092 and Cemiplimab in BRAF WT Thyroid Cancer
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT06902376
What this study is testing
What is Cemiplimab?
Cemiplimab is an investigational medicine, given as an infusion into a vein, being studied as a potential treatment for anaplastic thyroid cancer.
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
- This multicenter study examines the safety and feasibility of the combination of neoadjuvant XL092 and cemiplimab prior to surgical resection in participants with wild-type (WT) anaplastic thyroid cancer (ATC) that has a BRAF mutation (BRAF V600E).
- Phase 1: an early, usually small safety study
