Recruitment completed in Ph 1b MELODY-1 trial of MB097 in Advanced Melanoma
Dr Robert Tansley, Microbiotica’s Chief Medical Officer, said, “It is another significant milestone that this clinical study is fully recruited. In cancer patients, the bacteria in MB097 appear to be associated with better response rates to immune checkpoint inhibitor therapies, such as anti-PD-1 drugs. MB097, with its precisely selected microbes based on data from responsive patients, in combination with ICIs, could therefore activate a therapeutic benefit for non-responding patients with advanced melanoma. Moreover, as the MB097 bacteria are found in healthy subjects as well as in patients who responded to ICIs, we anticipate a favourable safety profile. We thank the investigators and patients for participating in the study and look forward to the results.”
