Study Summary

This trial will study whether it is better to stop treatment with PD-1/PD-L1 therapy after one year or continue until disease progression.

Who is the study for?

This trial is for adults with advanced solid tumors (like lung, bladder, kidney cancer, etc.) who are responding to PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors. They must have stable disease shown in scans within 6 weeks of joining and can't be on another clinical trial. Those with progressing disease or immune-related toxicity that stops treatment aren't eligible.Check my eligibility

What is being tested?

The study aims to find the best length of time for treating patients with PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors. Participants will either stop treatment at one year or continue until their disease gets worse. The decision about which group a patient joins is made randomly.See study design

What are the potential side effects?

PD-1/PD-L1 inhibitors can cause side effects like fatigue, skin reactions, inflammation in organs such as lungs or intestines, hormonal gland problems (like thyroid), and changes in liver function tests.
