Full Title
SARC045: A Phase II Trial of Tebentafusp in HLA-A*02:01 Positive Patients with Advanced Clear Cell SarcomaPurpose
Researchers want to see how well tebentafusp works in people with clear cell sarcoma that has spread. This cancer grows deeply into soft tissues of the arms and legs. The people in this study have clear cell sarcoma that is inoperable (cannot be surgically removed) or has spread.
Tebentafusp is a type of drug called a bispecific protein, which means it binds to two different proteins. It binds to one protein on cancer cells and another on immune cells called T cells. Tebentafusp may strengthen your immune system’s ability to fight cancer cells by activating your own cells to destroy your tumor. It is given intravenously (by vein).
