Camrelizumab Plus Apatinib and Temozolomide as Neoadjuvant in High Risk Acral Melanoma

A Phase 2 Clinical Trial of Neoadjuvant Camrelizumab Plus Apatinib and Temozolomide in High Risk Clinical Stage Ⅱ-Ⅲ Acral Melanoma

Neoadjuvant therapy is feasible in stage Ⅱ-Ⅲ melanoma, Carrelizumab combined with apatinib and temozolomide has synergistic antitumor effects and may improve pathological response.

Patients with resectable melanoma can benefit from neoadjuvant therapy, including improved surgical outcomes, precise management of patients based on neoadjuvant response, and analysis of resistance mechanisms through histological sections for subsequent treatment. At present, there have been a number of clinical trials exploring the effect of neoadjuvant regimens for melanoma, and some published results have shown that neoadjuvant therapy can lead to a higher pathological response rate, thereby improving the RFS of patients.

In the past, this site has carried out a clinical study of Camrelizumab combined with Apatinib and Temozolomide for first-line treatment of unresectable acral melanoma, with a high preliminary clinical response rate and safety. Based on this, this study intends to evaluate the neoadjuvant treatment of completely resectable melanoma with Camrelizumab combined with Apatinib and Temozolomide in patients with stage III and IIB, IIC high-risk melanoma. To comprehensively evaluate the short-term and long-term benefits of neoadjuvant therapy and provide an important reference for neoadjuvant treatment strategies in the acral melanoma population.
