FAILED TRIAL: Ph 2 KeyVibe-002 Trial of MK-7684A (Vibostolimab + Pembrolizumab) in Previously Treated NSCLC patients did not meet primary PFS endpoint
“Through different approaches, such as novel combinations and coformulations, we hope to build on the foundation of KEYTRUDA to help even more patients with cancer,” said Dr. Eliav Barr, senior vice president, head of global clinical development and chief medical officer, Merck Research Laboratories. “We are grateful to the patients and investigators for their participation in this study evaluating MK-7684A in a heavily pre-treated group of patients, and look forward to additional data from the continuation of the blinded arms of KeyVibe-002. Based on responses we have seen in the signal-finding Phase 1/2 program to date, we are moving forward with our comprehensive research program evaluating MK-7684A across a wide range of cancers, including lung, other solid tumors and blood cancers.”
