Evaluation of Anti-PD-1 Therapy by Monitoring T Cell Responses in Melanoma, Lung and Other Cancer Types (NCT06075524)

Maximizing Anti-PD-1 Therapy by Monitoring T Cell Responses in Melanoma, Lung and Other Cancer Types

🟢 Recruiting Interventional Protocol 📊 Observational Clinical Research Sponsor: Mayo Clinic

🩺 Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)

This study explores the role of T cells in monitoring disease status and response during anti-PD-1/PD-L1 treatment in patients with melanoma, lung and other cancer types. Measuring levels of specific targets such as Bim and soluble PD-L1 during therapy may help track treatment resistance and clinical outcomes. This information may also help researchers determine why some people with melanoma, lung and other cancer types respond to PD-1/PD-L1 treatment and others do not.

Who can join: To join this study, participants generally need to meet the listed inclusion criteria (6 items) and avoid the listed exclusions (4 items).

Location: Mayo Clinic in Rochester — Rochester, Minnesota

Age range: 18 Years
