First Patient Enrolled in Ph 1 Trial of Tumor-Associated Antigen Cancer Vaccine EVM14
“The enrollment of the first patient with EVM14 in the United States marks an important achievement in advancing the global clinical development of our in-house mRNA platform.” said Rogers Yongging Luo, Chief Executive Officer of Everest Medicines. “This progress demonstrates Everest’s continued efforts to translate technological innovation into clinical practice and our first move advantage in developing next-generation immuno-oncology therapies, including therapeutic mRNA cancer vaccines. The large patient population faces limited options with existing standard-of-care therapies, highlighting an unmet medical need. As a TAA cancer vaccine, EVM14’s unique mechanism offers the potential to complement current treatments by enhancing the efficacy via combination therapies and helping delay disease recurrence, offering hope for long-term cancer-free survival. With EVM14 receiving IND approval from China’s NMPA, we look forward to this innovative therapy demonstrating promising therapeutic potential in global multicenter clinical trials, bringing more treatment options to patients worldwide and enhance their quality of life.”
