Study how the immune system changes after cancer immunotherapy
Part of Cancer, Immune system & allergy clinical trials.
This study looks at what happens to your immune system after you start a type of cancer treatment called a checkpoint inhibitor. The goal is to better understand side effects related to “autoimmunity” (when the immune system starts attacking the body) and improve care.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- Have a cancer diagnosis and be starting a checkpoint inhibitor (immunotherapy)
- Be able and willing to give informed consent
- Be 18 years of age or older
- Do not have a history of organ or stem cell transplant

This study looks at how immune-related side effects happen in people treated with certain cancer immunotherapies. It also includes some healthy volunteers and people who already have similar autoimmune conditions, to better understand and compare these reactions.
This is an observational study that follows adults with solid cancer who are receiving immune checkpoint inhibitor treatments. It aims to learn how these medicines are used and what outcomes may look like in everyday care.
This study looks at how side effects happen in people receiving immune checkpoint inhibitor immunotherapy for solid cancers. It uses multiple types of tests to better understand these toxicities and may help improve safety and care in the future.
This study watches immune system markers to see if they can predict which patients will respond well to immunotherapy and who might have side effects. If you have cancer and are starting immunotherapy, this trial may help guide future treatment decisions.
This study is looking for people about to start immune checkpoint inhibitor therapy to see if certain antibodies are present. It may help understand how the body reacts to this treatment.
This study asks people with cancer about their experiences when joining an immunotherapy (a cancer treatment that helps the immune system fight cancer) clinical trial. It may help the researchers understand what patients experience during these trials and improve how trials support patients.
