OncoMatch/Clinical Trials/NCT04332874
A Study of Pembrolizumab Plus Local Chemotherapy Using Isolated Limb Infusion (ILI) for Patients With Sarcoma in the Arm or Leg
Is NCT04332874 recruiting? Yes, currently enrolling (May 2026). This Phase 2 trial studies multiple treatments including Pembrolizumab and infusion of melphalan and dactinomycin for sarcoma.
Treatment: Pembrolizumab · infusion of melphalan and dactinomycin — The purpose of this study is to find out whether giving the study drug pembrolizumab in combination with the chemotherapy drugs melphalan and dactinomycin, delivered directly to the affected arm or leg using a technique called isolated limb infusion (ILI), is a safe treatment that can delay the time before your disease gets worse (progresses).

Liver function
Serum bilirubin <= 1.5 x ULN OR direct bilirubin <= ULN for a patient with total bilirubin level > 1.5 x ULN; AST <= 2.5 x ULN OR <= 5 x ULN for patients with liver metastases; ALT <= 2.5 x ULN OR <= 5 x ULN for patients with liver metastases; Alkaline phosphatase < 5 x ULN
Adequate organ function determined within 3 weeks of treatment initiation, defined as follows: Hemoglobin >= 8.0 g/dL; Absolute neutrophil count >= 1,000/mm^3 (1.0 x 10^9/L); Platelet count >= 50,000/mm^3 (50 x 10^9/L); Serum bilirubin <= 1.5 x ULN OR direct bilirubin <= ULN for a patient with total bilirubin level > 1.5 x ULN Aspartate aminotransferase (AST) <= 2.5 x ULN OR <= 5 x ULN for patients with liver metastases; Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) <= 2.5 x ULN OR <= 5 x ULN for patients with liver metastases; Alkaline phosphatase < 5 x ULN; Serum creatinine <= 1.5 x ULN or a measured or calculated creatinine clearance >= 60 mL/min for a patient with creatinine levels > 1.5 x institutional ULN (Note: Creatinine clearance need not be determined if the baseline serum creatinine is within normal limits. GFR can also be used in place of creatinine or CrCl); INR or PT <= 1.5 X ULN unless patient is receiving anticoagulant therapy as long as PT or PTT is within therapeutic range of intended use of anticoagulants; aPTT <= 1.5 x ULN unless subject is receiving anticoagulant therapy as long as PT and PTT is within therapeutic range of intended use of anticoagulants
