Study on IO102-IO103 and Pembrolizumab Combination vs. Pembrolizumab Alone for Advanced Melanoma

Sponsor: IO Biotech

Sponsor score: 0

ClinicalTrials ID:NCT05155254

This clinical trial is comparing the effectiveness of a new treatment combination, IO102-IO103 with pembrolizumab, against pembrolizumab alone in patients with advanced melanoma that cannot be surgically removed or has spread to other parts of the body.

Patient Parameters

Program Overview

This study is testing a new treatment approach for advanced melanoma, a type of skin cancer that cannot be removed by surgery or has spread. The trial is comparing two groups: one receiving a combination of IO102-IO103 and pembrolizumab, and the other receiving only pembrolizumab. The main goal is to see if the combination treatment helps patients live longer without the cancer getting worse. Participants will receive pembrolizumab every three weeks for up to two years. Those in the combination group will also receive IO102-IO103 during this time.
