Trial summary

Background: Immunotherapy drugs use a person s own immune system to help fight cancer. These drugs work better for some people than others. The drug M7824 has helped some people with cancer. But it can cause side effects. Researchers want to learn all the side effects that M7824 can cause. Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: Retrospective Study of M7824 Related Adverse Effects in Adults With Cancer

Background:

Immunotherapy drugs use a person s own immune system to help fight cancer. These drugs work better for some people than others. The drug M7824 has helped some people with cancer. But it can cause side effects. Researchers want to learn all the side effects that M7824 can cause. Once they do, they can prevent or reduce these side effects in future cancer treatments. This will lead to better overall outcomes for people with cancer.

Objective:

To make a thorough list of adverse events in people with cancer being treated with systemic therapies including M7824 at the National Cancer Institute (NCI).

Eligibility:

Participants previously enrolled in NCI protocols #15-C-0179 and #18-C-0056

Design:

All needed data have already been collected. These data are stored in existing records and databases.

Researchers will review the medical records of adults with cancer who were enrolled in the above protocols. The data collected will be relevant to the specific objectives being addressed.

Data will be collected only if 2 conditions are met. One, the principal investigator gave permission for use of the data gathered in the trial. Two, the participants of the trial did not opt out of future use of the data.

Other protocols may be added. This will be done with an amendment.

Read the detailed description

Immunotherapy agents utilize the immune system to help fight cancer. A number of immunotherapy drugs have been approved for use in certain cancers. Despite being effective in some patients, many of these promising drugs do not demonstrate efficacy in other patients. M7824 (MSB0011359C), a bifunctional fusion protein that blocks both PD-L1 and transforming growth factor beta (TGF-beta) signaling, is a promising novel drug that has proven efficacious in a subset of cancer patients. However, we have observed side effects in patients receiving M7824 that include both immune related adverse events and skin neoplasms. It is imperative that these M7824 side effects be identified and characterized so that they can be prevented or diminished during future cancer treatments. By thoroughly analyzing the side effect profile of this drug, management of adverse effects and overall patient outcomes can be better understood and optimized.

The primary goal of this protocol is to perform a retrospective chart review for the investigation of the adverse events arising in cancer patients being treated with systemic therapies including M7824 at the National Cancer Institute (NCI). This study will not involve the use of specimens or participant contact. All data that are needed have already been collected on the individual treatment protocols and are available in CRIS records or protocol specific databases. Data will only be collected from treatment protocols where the PI has given permission for use of the data on the trial the subjects were enrolled on and the subjects did not opt out of future use of data. This protocol will be amended to incorporate new research objectives and new protocols as necessary.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

An observational study of Neoplasms and Skin Neoplasms, run by National Cancer Institute (NCI) at 1 site in United States.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: under way, not looking for participants, as of the sponsor's last update on 5 Nov 2026. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in United States. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

This study is still under way. Results are not available in the source record yet.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

M7824 related adverse events (time frame: ongoing). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 5 Nov 2026.
