Confirmatory Registration Study for Multikine in PD-L1 low newly diagnosed head and neck cancer patients in final stage of start-up preparations

“We are very optimistic about the prospects of our investigational drug Multikine in 2025 and 2026. We look ahead to Multikine being able to deliver much needed relief to a patient population with a severe unmet medical need. We see several very important milestones and value drivers upcoming. Positive data on presurgical response rates, previously shown to be indicative of overall survival, could enable us to apply for early approval,” stated CEL-SCI CEO, Geert Kersten. “This confirmatory Registration Study is designed to do two things: create a new standard of care for newly diagnosed treatment naïve locally advanced head and neck cancer patients; and provide survival benefit for the population of patients with low/negative tumor expression of PD-L1, those patients who have historically not responded well to widely used checkpoint inhibitors such as Keytruda and Opdivo.”
