What the film says

Read the transcript

This trial is for adults with incurable thymic carcinoma after systemic treatment, or when other therapies are unsuitable or declined. Prior PD-1 or PD-L1 checkpoint treatment is excluded. Autoimmune and paraneoplastic-antibody screening rules apply.

The idea: use ivonescimab, an antibody that targets both PD-1 immune suppression and VEGF-driven blood-vessel growth. Infusions are given every three weeks for up to two years unless progression or unacceptable toxicity occurs. Researchers assess tumor responses and safety. An end-of-treatment biopsy is optional.

This phase 2 study plans 25 patients. UCLA's Jonathan Goldman leads two recruiting US sites.
