Retifanlimab (Anti-PD-1 Antibody) With Gemcitabine and Docetaxel in Patients With Advanced Soft Tissue Sarcoma (NCT04577014)

A Multi-cohort Study of Retifanlimab With or Without Gemcitabine and Docetaxel in Patients With Advanced Sarcoma

๐ŸŸข Recruiting Phase1 / Phase2 ๐Ÿ’Š Investigational Drug / Biologic Sponsor: Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center

๐Ÿฉบ Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)

This study is being done to find out whether the study drug Retifanlimab, a monoclonal antibody against the PD-1 protein, combined with gemcitabine and docetaxel, is a safe and effective treatment for your disease. Gemcitabine and docetaxel are chemotherapy drugs that are commonly used to treat soft tissue sarcoma. Retifanlimab is an experimental drug that boosts the immune system's ability to fight cancer cells. The study researchers think that Retifanlimab may help gemcitabine and docetaxel work better against soft tissue sarcoma that is either locally advanced or has spread beyond its original location (metastasized), and it cannot be removed with surgery (unresectable).
