Adding the Immunotherapy Drug Cemiplimab to Usual Treatment for People With Advanced Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer Who Had Previous Treatment With Platinum Chemotherapy and Immunotherapy (An Expanded Lung-MAP Treatment Trial)
NCT06616584
Recruiting
This phase II/III Expanded Lung-MAP treatment trial compares the effect of adding cemiplimab to docetaxel and ramucirumab versus docetaxel and ramucirumab alone in treating patients with non-small cell lung cancer that is stage IV or that has come back after a period of improvement (recurrent). Cemiplimab is a monoclonal antibody that stimulates the immune system by blocking the PD-1 pathway. Tumors use the PD-1 pathway to escape attacks from the immune system. By blocking the PD-1 pathway, cemi... Read More

A Study With NKT3964 for Adults With Advanced/Metastatic Solid Tumors
NCT06586957
Recruiting
The goal of the Dose Escalation phase of the study is to evaluate the safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK) and preliminary anti-tumor activity to determine the preliminary recommended dose for expansion (RDE) of NKT3964 in adults with advanced or metastatic solid tumors. The goal of the Expansion phase of the study is to evaluate the preliminary anti-tumor activity of NKT3964 at the RDEs based on objective response rate (ORR) and determine the preliminary recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D).

Study of Intralesional Cemiplimab in Adult Patients With Early Stage Cutaneous Squamous Cell Carcinoma
NCT06585410
Recruiting
This study will test a study drug called cemiplimab to see if it can help treat early-stage cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (CSCC), a type of skin cancer. Cemiplimab works by helping the immune system to kill cancer cells. It binds to a protein called programmed cell death-1 (PD-1) on the surface of certain immune cells. The main purpose of this study is to compare how well cemiplimab works compared to surgery, when injected into the lesion. The study is looking at: * The side effects cemip... Read More
