Who may be able to participate
The sponsor separates these requirements into two groups. You do not need to interpret them alone—use them to guide a conversation with the study team.
- Primary
- Confirmed diagnosis of malignant pleural mesothelioma (MPM) with the following characteristics: unresectable disease (or otherwise not a candidate for curative surgery); epithelial type or biphasic (mixed) type with low sarcomatous content.
- Measurable disease at Screening by computed tomography (CT)(or magnetic resonance imaging \[MRI\]).
- KPS of greater than or equal to 70% at Screening.
- Life expectancy of at least 3 months Primary
- Sarcomatous type of mesothelioma
- Prior systemic therapy or radiotherapy for MPM; local radiotherapy for symptom control (ie, non-curative intent) is permitted.
- Confirmed presence of CNS tumor involvement.
- Evidence of other active malignancy requiring treatment.
Important: This is the sponsor’s public criteria, not a determination of eligibility. The study team must review your individual situation.
