Clinical Trials for Mesothelioma

A Phase III, Randomized, Open-Label, Multicenter, Global Study of Volrustomig (MEDI5752) in Combination With Carboplatin Plus Pemetrexed Versus Platinum Plus Pemetrexed or Nivolumab Plus Ipilimumab in Participants With Unresectable Pleural Mesothelioma (eVOLVE-Meso)

Investigational drug late phase

The trial is testing an investigational drug and is at least phase 2, suggesting that the drug has shown promise in phase 1 studies and might have a high chance of working well compared to other investigational drugs.

Active drug

Investigational drug(s) in this trial have shown anticancer activity in clinical trials

Moderate burden on patient

The trial has a moderate burden on patients. An example would be a trial testing an IV drug, with scans every 8 weeks which would be more frequent than standard of care.

HealthScout AI summary: Adults with unresectable pleural mesothelioma (epithelioid or non-epithelioid), ECOG 0–1, are randomized to volrustomig (a bispecific PD-1/CTLA-4 antibody) plus carboplatin/pemetrexed versus investigator’s choice of platinum/pemetrexed (epithelioid) or nivolumab plus ipilimumab (either histology; standard for non-epithelioid). Key exclusions include significant autoimmune disease and uncontrolled infections; primary endpoint is overall survival.
