What is being tested?
The study is testing the combination of Sorafenib (an enzyme blocker), Bevacizumab (a monoclonal antibody that blocks blood flow to tumors), and Oxaliplatin (chemotherapy). It aims to find the best dose of Sorafenib when used with Bevacizumab and Oxaliplatin in treating advanced skin cancer.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects include reactions related to immune system activation such as inflammation in various organs, infusion-related reactions like fever or chills during treatment administration, fatigue from energy depletion, digestive disturbances like nausea or diarrhea, blood cell count changes leading to increased infection risk.
