A Study Evaluating Whether Pembrolizumab Alone or in Combination With CMP-001 Improves Efficacy of Treatment in Patients With Operable Melanoma (NCT04708418)

Phase II Randomized Study of Neoadjuvant Pembrolizumab Alone or in Combination With CMP-001 in Patients With Operable Melanoma: Efficacy and Biomarker Study

๐Ÿ”ต Active, Not Recruiting Phase2 ๐Ÿ’Š Investigational Drug / Biologic Sponsor: National Cancer Institute (NCI)

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

This phase II trial studies the effect of pembrolizumab alone or in combination with CMP-001 in treating patients with melanoma that can be treated by surgery (operable). Immunotherapy with monoclonal antibodies, such as pembrolizumab, may help the body's immune system attack the cancer, and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Immunotherapy with CMP-001 may induce changes in body's immune system and may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. The addition of CMP-001 to pembrolizumab could improve the ability of the immune system to shrink tumors and to prevent them from returning.
