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.”

“In the first reported data from the clinical combinations of our PRMT5 inhibitor vopimetostat and RAS(ON) inhibitors, we saw extremely encouraging early results, with 92% of patients with PDAC in the vopimetostat plus daraxonrasib arm achieving an objective response, supporting the preclinical data showing synergistic activity of PRMT5 + RAS
“Non-small cell lung cancer is the most prevalent lung disease with more than 8,000 patients in the U.S. diagnosed each year with KRAS G12D-mutations. Receiving Fast Track designation for VS-7375 reinforces both the significant unmet need and the potential of VS-7375 to improve outcomes for patients with KRAS G12D-mutated lung
“KRAS has notoriously been considered an undruggable target and patients with KRAS-driven cancers continue to face limited treatment options with survival measured in months, not years,” said John Reed, M.D., Ph.D., Executive Vice President, Innovative Medicine, Research & Development, Johnson & Johnson. “We believe the proprietary Firelink™ platform will overcome
