New treatment option for Solid Tumors
Official title Controlled Cold Exposure Combined With PD-1/PD-L1 Immunotherapy in Solid Tumors (NIVALIS)
ClinicalTrials.gov ID: NCT07538479
What this study is testing
What is Investigator-Selected Standard PD-1/PD-L1 Inhibitor-Based Therapy?
Investigator-Selected Standard PD-1/PD-L1 Inhibitor-Based Therapy is an investigational medicine, being studied as a potential treatment for solid tumors.
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 is a single-center, prospective, single-arm, open-label phase I exploratory study that plans to enroll 24 participants with solid malignancies. All participants will receive controlled cold exposure in addition to standard PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitor monotherapy or PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitor-based standard combination therapy.
- Phase 1: an early, usually small safety study
- Which group you join is decided by chance.
