Phase II study of TH-302 in advanced melanoma

Phase:
II

A Phase 2 Biomarker-Enriched Study of TH-302 in Subjects with Advanced Melanoma

The primary purpose of this research study is to gather information on the safety and effect of TH-302 on your cancer. This study will also look at how the drug is processed in the body. In addition, this study will collect data from blood, tumor, and imaging studies about your specific cancer such as the level of oxygen that is present. These data may help to predict in the future which patients with advanced melanoma may be more likely to benefit from TH-302. This research is being done because there are currently no other effective treatments for advanced melanoma of the skin which has recurred or has spread to other parts of the body.
