FDA accepts Supplemental BLA and EMA Validates Application for Opdivo as an Adjuvant Treatment for Patients with Completely Resected Stage IIB or IIC Melanoma
“Melanoma can be a devastating diagnosis, and patients with stage IIB or IIC melanoma tend to be at high risk of disease recurrence. Approximately one third of stage IIB and half of stage IIC patients experience recurrence within five years after surgery,” said Gina Fusaro, PhD, vice president, development program lead, Bristol Myers Squibb. “The data from the CheckMate -76K trial demonstrate the benefit that Opdivo can have for patients with this earlier stage of cancer. We look forward to working with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration and the European Medicines Agency to potentially offer a treatment option to patients with stage IIB or IIC melanoma that could help prevent recurrence.”
