FDA Removes Partial Clinical Hold on NEON-2 Clinical Trial of Davoceticept (ALPN-202) in Combination with Pembrolizumab
FDA removed the partial clinical hold placed on its NEON-2 trial evaluating davoceticept (ALPN-202), a first-in-class conditional CD28 costimulator and dual checkpoint inhibitor, in combination with pembrolizumab in adults with advanced malignancies.
The FDA removed the hold after review of the Company’s Complete Response, which included a comprehensive review of the davoceticept safety database, as well as a revised investigator brochure and study protocol. As previously disclosed, under the terms of the hold, previously enrolled participants continued to receive study drug, but no new participants could be enrolled until the partial clinical hold was removed. The ongoing NEON-1 study was not subject to the hold.
