Study to Evaluate Impact® as Support to Anti PD1 or Anti PD1 Based Regimen Treatment in Patients With Inoperable Locally Advanced or Metastatic Melanoma

Recruiting now · Not applicable

Conditions studied: Melanoma Metastatic, Locally Advanced Melanoma

In brief

This is a monocentric, prospective study evaluating the effectiveness in reducing immune-related adverse events, and translational study conducted on 20 patients with inoperable locally advanced or metastatic melanoma. The patients will be treated with Oral Impact® administered at the dose of two bricks/day for 21 days + one brick/day for 14 days, starting exactly one week before Anti PD-1 treatment (nivolumab) or anti PD1 based regimen therapy (Nivolumab plus Ipilimumab or Nivolumab plus Relatlimab) as per clinical practice. The comparison will be done with historical literature data on patients matched by age, sex, disease stage, and therapy dosage, not treated with Impact.
