Title: A SECOND-LINE, SINGLE ARM, PHASE II CLINICAL STUDY WITH TREMELIMUMAB, A FULLY HUMAN ANTI-CTLA-4 MONOCLONAL ANTIBODY, AS MONOTHERAPY IN PATIENTS WITH UNRESECTABLE MALIGNANT MESOTHELIOMA. The MESOT-TREM-2012
Brief Summary: RATIONAL: Preliminary results fron the Study MESOT-TREM-2012 indicate a promising activity of tremelimumab in malignant mesothelioma (MM) patients.

PURPOSE: The proposed study MESOT-TREM-2012 aims to explore the efficacy of a more intensive schedule of treatment with tremelimumab in 29 MM patients. Subjects will receive investigational product every 4 weeks (wks) for 6 doses, followed by doses every 12 wks until confirmed disease progression.
