Study summary

There are two main goals of this study: The first is to find the highest safe dose of REGN6569 when given with cemiplimab. The second is to get some initial information about how well the REGN6569 in combination with cemiplimab may help shrink certain types of cancer.

The study is also looking at:

  • Side effects that may be experienced by people taking REGN6569 alone and with cemiplimab
  • How REGN6569 and cemiplimab work in the body
  • How much REGN6569 and cemiplimab is in your blood
  • To see if REGN6569 can lower the number of Treg cells in tumors
  • To see if REGN6569 and cemiplimab can shrink tumors when given together

What these dates mean
Start.
When the first participant enrolled; while estimated, when the study expects to open to recruitment.
Primary completion.
When the last participant was examined or treated to collect data for the study's main question, its primary outcome. A study that stopped early gives the date its data collection stopped.
Completion.
When the last participant's last visit took place, for every outcome, secondary ones and side effects included: the end of the study. Often later than primary completion, sometimes the same day.
Actual and Est.
Actual means the registry says the date has happened. Est. (estimated) is a date the sponsor plans or expects. It can still move, and the sponsor is expected to change it to actual once it has passed.
No changes since tracking began. The registry record was last updated on Feb 24, 2025, before this site started recording changes on Sep 25, 2026. Its history is on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
