mRNA-4157 (V940) + KEYTRUDA Combination Demonstrated Continued Improvement in RFS and DMFS in Patients with High-Risk Stage III/IV Melanoma Following Complete Resection Versus KEYTRUDA At Three Years
“As we continue to follow participants in the KEYNOTE-942/mRNA-4157-P201 study, we are excited to see such a robust clinical benefit with mRNA-4157 (V940) as adjuvant treatment in combination with KEYTRUDA in people with resected high-risk melanoma,” said Kyle Holen, M.D., Moderna’s Senior Vice President and Head of Development, Therapeutics and Oncology. “These data add another positive analysis to the multiple endpoints and subgroups previously assessed in this study. Importantly for this technology, the KEYNOTE-942/mRNA-4157-P201 study was the first demonstration of efficacy for an investigational mRNA cancer treatment in a randomized clinical trial and the first combination therapy to show a significant benefit over KEYTRUDA alone in adjuvant melanoma. We look forward to sharing these data with people impacted by this disease and the broader scientific community.”
