Clinical Trial Summary

There is no standard second line treatment in malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM). Pembrolizumab has shown to be active in in small phase II studies in MPM. Its activity however, is limited, with a response rate up to 20%. Since the arrival of nivolumab plus ipilimumab as first line standard of care treatment in mesothelioma, no treatment options are investigated in this group of patients in the second line. So, there is a need for new treatment combinations with drugs that might exhibit a synergistic interaction with pembrolizumab.


Clinical Trial Description

There is no standard second line treatment in malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM). Pembrolizumab has shown to be active in in small phase II studies in MPM. Its activity however, is limited, with a response rate up to 20%. So, there is a need for new treatment combinations with drugs that might exhibit a synergistic interaction with pembrolizumab. The mechanisms of actions of lenvatinib, which has a broad spectrum of activities, predicts many synergistic interactions with PD-1 blocking. The aim of this study is to characterize the potential clinical activity, toxicity and biomarkers of outcome of pembrolizumab - lenvatinib in patients with recurrent MPM. ;
