FAILED TRIAL: FOCUS Ph II Trial of UV1 + Pembrolizumab didn’t improve PFS & OS in Patients with Metastatic or Recurrent Head and Neck Cancer
“We have implemented a broad Phase II clinical development program testing our cancer vaccine in a range of different indications. Unfortunately, the FOCUS study did not provide us with the results we had hoped for, and we are disappointed that UV1 was not able to provide added clinical benefit for these HNSCC patients,” said Carlos de Sousa, Chief Executive Officer at Ultimovacs. “Earlier this year we implemented a cash preservation program, enabling us to extend our runway to the fourth quarter of 2025 beyond the anticipated DOVACC Phase II topline readout in the first half of next year. Further, the Ultimovacs team is actively developing a novel technology platform identified during the TET development and we look forward to providing more details before year-end.”
