Experimental: Group A Target class A-1: Nivolumab+nab-paclitaxel
The CA048-001 clinical study will utilize a master protocol and subprotocols representing distinct mechanisms of actions. Each subprotocol will contain 1 Group, representing a particular mechanism of action, and will consist of 3 treatment arms that will be simultaneously evaluated. One treatment within a group will be selected to move forward to the next sub-protocol based on safety and tolerability, pharmacodynamic and efficacy data. Thus, the number of treatments within each group is increased by one for each subsequent group, with the intent to simultaneously impact a wide range of mechanisms thought to be important for generating anti-tumor immune responses.
