Study Summary

This trial will study a new cancer drug to see if it is effective and what side effects it may cause.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults with various advanced solid tumors who have already tried certain treatments without success. Participants must be in good physical condition (ECOG score of 0 or 1) and have measurable disease. Specific criteria apply to different cancer types, like only one prior chemotherapy for some or progression after platinum-based therapy. People with active brain tumors, recent radiotherapy, significant ongoing treatment side effects, or other cancers within the last three years can't join.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study tests ladiratuzumab vedotin alone and combined with pembrolizumab on patients with solid tumors to see if it's effective and safe. It targets those whose cancer has progressed despite previous treatments including chemotherapy and immunotherapy.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Possible side effects include reactions at the infusion site, fatigue, nausea, nerve damage symptoms like numbness or tingling (neuropathy), immune-related issues such as inflammation in organs which could manifest as coughing or diarrhea among others.
