Phase 2 Trial.
No findings were extractable from the material analysed.
Safety was not reported in the material analysed. Check the source before drawing any conclusion about harm.
The source did not state who this applies to in practice.
Graded across the dimensions that decide whether you should act, each from what the source actually supports. There is no single score, and where a dimension was not assessed it says so.
This record has not been graded across any dimension yet. Treat the label above as provisional and read the source.
What is missing. This record has no bottom line, key findings, reported figures, evidence dimensions. That is a gap in the analysis, not a judgement about the study.
Registry record from ClinicalTrials.gov (NCT02644369). This is a study registration, not published results. Lead sponsor: University Health Network, Toronto. Recruitment status: ACTIVE_NOT_RECRUITING. Phase: PHASE2. Study type: INTERVENTIONAL. Enrollment: 100 participants (ESTIMATED). Conditions: Squamous Cell Cancer of Head and Neck, Triple Negative Breast Cancer, Epithelial Ovarian Cancer, Malignant Melanoma, Advanced Solid Tumors. Interventions: BIOLOGICAL: Pembrolizumab. Primary outcome measures: Changes in genomic and immune biomarkers that will be measured in blood and tumor pre-treatment, on-treatment and at progression (progression biopsies only done for those who have complete or partial responses, or stable disease for more than 4 months) , 5 years. Brief summary: This is a phase 2 study whose main purpose is to evaluate gene changes and immune biomarkers in patients with solid tumors during treatment with pembrolizumab and in relation to response to treatment. Pembrolizumab is a monoclonal antibody that is designed to block a protein called programmed cell death 1 ligand 1 (PD-L1) which will allow the body's immune system to kill the cancer cells.
