Summary

This trial looks at how well brentuximab vedotin works in treating patients with malignant mesothelioma that cannot be removed by surgery. Monoclonal antibodies may help to prevent tumor cells from growing and spreading.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for male and female patients with CD30+ malignant mesothelioma that can't be surgically removed. Participants need to agree to contraception, have had any prior treatments, and their major organs must function well. Exclusions include a recent history of other cancers, significant bone marrow radiation, organ transplants, current participation in other studies, serious health or mental issues, pregnancy or breastfeeding.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests Brentuximab Vedotin's effectiveness on patients with inoperable CD30+ malignant mesothelioma. It's a phase II trial where this monoclonal antibody is used to see if it can stop cancer cells from growing and spreading.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Brentuximab Vedotin may cause side effects such as infusion reactions (like fever or chills), fatigue, nausea or vomiting, diarrhea or constipation, mouth sores, skin rashes or itching. There might also be an increased risk of infection.
