Cancer With Transdermal Accessible Tumour Clinical Trial
Official title:
Phase 1 Dose-escalation Study of LTX-315 in Patients With a Transdermally Accessible Tumour
The study will evaluate the safety profile for LTX-315 a lytic-peptide that has shown effect in animal models to kill cancer tumours when injected directly in to the tumour. The study will also monitor the immunological response in the body after injection of LTX-315.
