Microbiotica Announces Clinical Trial Collaboration with MSD to Evaluate MB097 in Combination with KEYTRUDA in a Ph 1b Clinical Trial in Melanoma
Tim Sharpington, CEO of Microbiotica, said: “We are delighted to be working with MSD, a world leader in immuno-oncology. The treatment of patients with advanced melanoma has been revolutionised by ICIs such as KEYTRUDA® and there is an opportunity to increase the number of patients who can benefit from these treatments. There is growing evidence that the gut microbiome plays a critical role in determining a patient’s response to ICIs and we believe that MB097, in combination with KEYTRUDA®, has the potential to enhance the benefit for patients with advanced melanoma and other difficult-to-treat cancers.”
