Study Summary

This trial is testing a combination of two immunotherapy drugs, nivolumab and anti-IL-8, with radiation to see if it is safe and if it can help treat cancer.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults with advanced solid tumors like melanoma or renal cell carcinoma, who have progressed on standard therapies. They must be able to undergo radiation, have normal organ function, and not be pregnant or breastfeeding. Participants need detectable IL-8 levels in their blood and an ECOG performance status of 0 or 1.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests the safety of combining Stereotactic Body Radiotherapy (SBRT) with two immunotherapy drugs: Nivolumab (anti-PD1) and BMS-986253 (anti-IL-8). It aims to find safe radiation doses by organ site when used with these drugs and observe changes in tumor environments.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects include typical immune-related reactions such as inflammation in various organs, fatigue, skin issues, flu-like symptoms, hormonal gland problems, and possible infusion-related reactions.
