Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Ideal candidates are adults aged 18 and older with pathologically confirmed unresectable malignant peritoneal mesothelioma and an ECOG performance status of 0-1.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients with resectable tumors or those with significant comorbidities affecting organ function may not benefit from this study.
A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.
What this trial studies
This interventional study aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of a combination treatment involving sintilimab, bevacizumab, pemetrexed, and cisplatin in patients with unresectable malignant peritoneal mesothelioma. A total of 28 patients will receive these medications every three weeks, with tumor assessments conducted every two cycles. The primary focus is on measuring Progression-Free Survival (PFS), while secondary outcomes include Overall Survival (OS), Objective Response Rate (ORR), and Disease Control Rate (DCR). The study also seeks to identify biomarkers related to treatment efficacy and safety.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this treatment could significantly improve survival outcomes for patients with advanced malignant peritoneal mesothelioma.
How similar studies have gone: Other studies have shown promising results with similar combination therapies in treating advanced malignancies, suggesting potential for success in this approach.
