-
VMD-102 in liver cancer and other solid tumors
This study tests VMD-102 to see if it is safe and tolerable and to find the best dose for further study in adults with advanced liver cancer and several other solid tumors.
-
Dual-target CSPG4/GD2 CAR-NK Cells for Advanced Melanoma
This study tests a donor-derived CAR-NK cell therapy that targets CSPG4 or GD2 in adults with unresectable or metastatic melanoma after standard treatments.
-
Melphalan liver perfusion followed by tebentafusp for metastatic uveal melanoma
This Phase 2 trial tests whether melphalan delivered to the liver by percutaneous hepatic perfusion followed by tebentafusp helps people with HLA-A*02:01-positive metastatic uveal melanoma confined to the liver.
-
NBM-BMX for adults with metastatic uveal melanoma — dose-finding and safety
This study will test whether taking the oral drug NBM-BMX twice daily is safe, how the body handles it, and whether it can slow or shrink tumors in adults with metastatic uveal melanoma while finding the best dose.
-
Adding IL-2 to tebentafusp to overcome resistance in uveal melanoma
This trial tests whether giving interleukin‑2 (IL‑2) together with tebentafusp can help people with HLA‑A*02:01 metastatic uveal melanoma who progressed on tebentafusp.
-
Combining Tebentafusp with Radioembolization for Liver Metastases from Uveal Melanoma
This study is testing whether combining a new drug called Tebentafusp with a specific type of radiation treatment can help people with liver cancer that started from uveal melanoma.
-
Tebentafusp plus liver-directed therapy for metastatic uveal melanoma
This trial tests whether combining tebentafusp with liver-directed treatments helps HLA-A*02:01-positive adults with metastatic uveal melanoma keep their liver tumors from growing.
-
Investigating RP2 and Nivolumab for Metastatic Uveal Melanoma
This study is testing whether a new treatment combining RP2 with nivolumab can help adults with metastatic uveal melanoma feel better compared to the standard treatment of nivolumab and ipilimumab.
-
Combining Cemiplimab and Ziv-Aflibercept for Metastatic Uveal Melanoma
This study is testing if the combination of Cemiplimab and Ziv-Aflibercept can help shrink tumors or stop their growth in people with metastatic uveal melanoma who have already tried other treatments.
-
Evaluating lifileucel in patients with advanced uveal melanoma and certain sarcomas
This study is testing a new treatment called lifileucel to see if it can help people with advanced uveal melanoma and certain types of sarcomas feel better.
-
Evaluating IDE196 for patients with specific solid tumors
This study is testing a new treatment called IDE196 for people with specific solid tumors that have certain genetic changes to see if it can help shrink their tumors and how safe it is.
NIH-funded research (2)
Early-stage science funded by the US National Institutes of Health. Most of these projects don't enroll patients, but they show what is being worked on.
-
Dual mRNA therapeutics aimed at liver metastasis from uveal melanoma
A new approach uses two mRNA-based therapies designed to target liver metastases in adults with uveal melanoma.
-
Investigating a new treatment for uveal melanoma using a specific drug.
This study is testing a new drug called 64B to see if it can help treat advanced eye cancer, specifically metastatic and high-risk uveal melanoma, by working alongside other treatments to slow down tumor growth and improve survival, making it a hopeful option for patients facing this condition.
