NCT05041062 evaluates Ipilimumab in Malignant Mesothelioma of Peritoneum. The disclosed sponsor is The University of Chicago, the design is Interventional, and the geographic footprint is United States. The first listed primary endpoint is Major Pathologic (Disease) Response of Tumor to Nivolumab Combined With Ipilimumab Before Surgery, assessed over 24 months.
The key landscape question is whether this protocol can generate a clinically interpretable signal relative to nearby programs. Phase alone is not a measure of evidence quality. Endpoint relevance, comparator choice, masking, enrollment feasibility, patient selection, country coverage and follow-up must be considered together.
PatSnap MCP Servers make this assessment reproducible by keeping protocol facts, result evidence, asset attributes and sponsor identity in separate structured calls.
Clinical Trials MCP clinical_trial_fetch retrieved the design, outcomes, phase, status, enrollment, sponsor, countries and timing for NCT05041062 and selected peers. clinical_trial_result_fetch supplied detailed result records from the wider Malignant Mesothelioma of Peritoneum landscape. Drug & Asset MCP drug_fetch was queried for Ipilimumab, while Company & Deal Intelligence MCP organization_fetch was queried for The University of Chicago.
This separation reduces a common diligence error: treating a registry label, a company description or a result excerpt as if each represented the complete evidence package. Explore the source workflow at the PatSnap MCP marketplace.

The table aligns endpoints, sponsors, phases, geographies and readout proxies. It is descriptive, not a head-to-head efficacy comparison. Differences in population, baseline risk, intervention schedule and follow-up can dominate apparent cross-trial differences.

NCT05041062 is a Phase 2, completed study with 2 planned participants. Allocation is N/A, masking is None (Open Label), and the intervention model is Single Group Assignment.
The primary endpoint is “Major Pathologic (Disease) Response of Tumor to Nivolumab Combined With Ipilimumab Before Surgery” over “24 months.” The retrieved endpoint description is: The response of participant's tumor to treatment with nivolumab and ipilimumab before surgery by analyzing tissue samples collected from participant during surgery for the presence of cancerous tumour cells. Major pathologic response will be defined as tissue samples containing less than or equal to 10% of residual (leftover) tumor/cancer in the tissue after surgery..
Interpretation should test whether the endpoint captures a clinically meaningful change, whether its time horizon matches the proposed biology, and whether treatment discontinuation or missing data can bias the estimate. The planned enrollment of 2 should be assessed against expected effect size, event frequency, multiplicity, subgroup plans and attrition.
No named control drug was returned in the protocol field set. A placebo comparator can strengthen internal efficacy assessment, while an active comparator may better test clinical differentiation. Single-arm and open-label programs require greater weight on objective outcomes, independent assessment and external benchmarks.
5 recent result records were selected as contextual evidence for Malignant Mesothelioma of Peritoneum. These records do not establish direct evidence for NCT05041062 unless the registration number matches.

Result fields should be reconciled with the source record before quantitative comparison. Population definitions, analysis sets, dose cohorts, estimands, confidence intervals, rescue therapy and follow-up can materially change the meaning of a numerical endpoint. Clinical Trials MCP supports repeatable refreshes as result records change.
Ipilimumab is indexed as Monoclonal antibody with CTLA4 biology and a global stage of Approved. The asset profile lists Bristol Myers Squibb Co. as an originator or developer.
The University of Chicago is indexed in United States with the website https://www.uchicago.edu. University of Chicago is a private research university that focuses on sciences, medicine, economics, law, business, and others. The record lists 49 development-stage drug assets.
For execution diligence, monitor sponsor ownership, collaborator additions, site expansion, protocol amendments and enrollment revisions. A change in ownership or geography can alter operational confidence as well as the commercial meaning of a future readout.
White space should be framed as an unanswered development question, not merely an unoccupied mechanism label. A credible program closes a measurable clinical uncertainty with a design that can be executed and interpreted.
For sponsors, the endpoint hierarchy, safety window, enrollment pace and protocol amendment history should all support the same target product profile. Advancement criteria should be set before the readout and tied to clinical effect, uncertainty, tolerability and operational feasibility.
For business-development teams, differentiation may come from a sharper population, stronger comparator, more durable benefit, simpler delivery or clearer sequencing role. For investors, the central risk is evidence quality relative to time and capital, not the phase label in isolation.
Track recruitment status, enrollment changes, primary-completion timing, endpoint revisions, new result records, sponsor ownership and collaborator changes. Re-run the PatSnap MCP workflow when a surrogate becomes a clinical outcome, a single-country study expands, the comparator changes or a new result materially shifts the competitive benchmark.

Data snapshot: 28 September 2026.
Ipilimumab in Malignant Mesothelioma of Peritoneum is best understood through the interaction of protocol design, surrounding readouts, asset context and sponsor execution. The current record makes Major Pathologic (Disease) Response of Tumor to Nivolumab Combined With Ipilimumab Before Surgery and 2023-04-13 the leading decision points.
