First Patient Dosed with EVM16 in patients with advanced or recurrent solid tumors
“In recent years, AI has become a major force in drug development, especially in the area of mRNA vaccines. AI is increasingly seen as a crucial tool for boosting research efficiency and accuracy, attracting substantial attention from both the biopharmaceutical industry and governments worldwide. Everest has demonstrated the clinical validation capabilities of its mRNA platform since 2021, with an emphasis on employing AI to identify tumor neoantigens. By continually optimizing its algorithms, the company has enhanced the precision of neoantigen recognition and validation, giving it a strong foundation and a competitive edge in developing mRNA-based cancer vaccines.” said Rogers Yongqing Luo, Chief Executive Officer of Everest Medicines. “EVM16 is the first personalized mRNA cancer vaccine internally developed by Everest. The first patient dosing marks a significant milestone in its clinical development of EVM16, indicating our proprietary tumor neoantigen AI-based algorithm system and mRNA technology platform have advanced to human trials. As a cancer vaccine candidate developed using our proprietary mRNA platform, we look forward to demonstrating EVM16’s therapeutic potential in upcoming clinical trials, with the goal of offering innovative treatment options to cancer patients worldwide and expand choices for those facing life-threatening diseases.”
