Full Title
An Open-label, Multicenter, Phase 2 Study to Evaluate the Efficacy and Safety of Pembrolizumab Plus Lenvatinib in Combination With Belzutifan in Multiple Solid TumorsPurpose
The purpose of this study is to assess the safety and effectiveness of adding the drug belzutifan to pembrolizumab immunotherapy and lenvatinib in people with pancreatic or biliary cancer that has continued to grow or came back despite treatment. Belzutifan is an investigational drug that blocks a protein (called HIF-2alpha) that is involved in tumor growth. By blocking this protein, the drug may cause cancer to shrink or stop growing.
Pembrolizumab boosts the power of the immune system to find and destroy cancer cells. Lenvatinib works against cancer by inhibiting the development of the blood vessels that tumors need to grow and spread. Belzutifan and lenvatinib are taken orally (by mouth) and pembrolizumab is given intravenously (by vein).
