FAILED TRIAL: Topline Results from INITIUM Study Evaluating UV1 Vaccination Added to Ipilimumab and Nivolumab in Patients with Unresectable or Metastatic Malignant Melanoma Announced
“Ultimovacs had set a very high bar for UV1 by comparing it to the ipilimumab and nivolumab combination, currently considered the most effective treatment for this patient population. Nevertheless, we are disappointed that UV1 did not add further clinical benefit for these late-stage melanoma patients in the INITIUM trial. Looking forward, our first objective is to complete the analysis of the full data set in depth to gain further insights on UV1’s effects,” said Jens Bjørheim, Chief Medical Officer, Ultimovacs. “We wish to thank the patients for their trust and the investigators for their collaboration with us.”
