What does this study hope to gain knowledge about?

"The purpose of this medical trial is to observe the change in CD4+ FoxP3- helper T cell count/µm2 over the course of a year. Additionally, researchers will be secondary outcomes including the frequency of all grade treatment-related toxicities and 2-year relapse-free survival rate in expansion cohort Intention-To-Treat (ITT) population."

Answered by AI

Is the dosage of MPDL3280A at Level 1 safe for consumption according to the FDA?

"This is a Phase 2 trial, which means that while there is some evidence supporting the safety of MPDL3280A Dose Level 1, there is no efficacy data. Our team at Power scored it a 2."
