Enrollment initiated in Ph 2 Trial of Ampligen® (rintatolimod) in Primary PD-1/PD-L1 Resistant Melanoma
“The start of this NCI-funded clinical trial marks an important milestone for our Melanoma R&D program. Despite recent successes of immune checkpoint inhibitors in advanced-stage disease, only a minority of treated melanoma patients have a durable benefit, reinforcing the need to develop second-line therapies that are effective against checkpoint-refractory disease. Based on the data seen to-date, we believe Ampligen, in combination with Roswell’s polarized dendritic cell vaccine plus interferon, has an opportunity to fill this gap and potentially provide clinical benefit to melanoma patients in need,” commented AIM Chief Executive Officer Thomas K. Equels.
