CSCC: Translating Cemiplimab Data Into Practice
April 19th 2023Following their review of recent clinical data, expert panelists consider how neoadjuvant cemiplimab will fit into the real-world treatment paradigm of resectable CSCC, including the possibility of delaying or avoiding surgery in patients who have an adequate response to cemiplimab.
Adjuvant mRNA-4157 Plus Pembrolizumab Improves RFS in Resected High-Risk Melanoma
mRNA-4157 in combination with pembrolizumab improved recurrence-free survival compared with pembrolizumab alone when used as an adjuvant treatment in patients with resected high-risk melanoma, regardless of tumor mutational burden.
Neoadjuvant IO Therapy Trials in Resectable CSCC and Cemiplimab Data Updates
April 12th 2023A brief overview of clinical trials evaluating the potential use of neoadjuvant immune checkpoint inhibitors—pembrolizumab, atezolizumab, and cemiplimab—in CSCC, followed by a focused discussion of recent cemiplimab trial data.
Lessons Learned in Other Cancers and Suggested Endpoints in Future Trials
April 12th 2023Key opinion leaders take time to review how immune checkpoint inhibitors have transformed outcomes in rectal cancer and non-cutaneous squamous cell cancers and consider how to better structure clinical trial endpoints in CSCC.
EMA Awards PRIME Scheme Designation to mRNA-4157/V940 Plus Pembrolizumab in High-risk Melanoma
The European Medicines Agency has granted Priority Medicines scheme designation to the personalized cancer vaccine mRNA-4157/V940 and pembrolizumab for use as adjuvant treatment in patients with high-risk, stage III or IV melanoma following complete resection.
Pembrolizumab/Lenvatinib Combo Misses OS End Points in Select Advanced Melanoma and mCRC
The phase 3 LEAP-003 and LEAP-017 trials evaluating pembrolizumab plus lenvatinib did not meet their primary end points of overall survival in select patients with unresectable or metastatic melanoma and metastatic colorectal cancer, respectively.
TAVO-EP Plus Pembrolizumab Fails to Meet ORR End Point in Anti–PD-1–Refractory Advanced Melanoma
The combination of the interleukin-12 encoding plasmid TAVO™-EP plus pembrolizumab did not meet the prespecified primary end point for overall response rate in patients with advanced melanoma that was refractory to anti–PD-1 therapy.
FDA Approval Sought for Lifileucel in Unresectable or Metastatic Melanoma
Iovance Biotherapeutics has submitted a rolling biologics license application to the FDA seeking the approval of the tumor infiltrating lymphocyte therapy lifileucel for the treatment of patients with advanced unresectable or metastatic melanoma who progressed on or after prior anti–PD-1/L1 therapy and targeted therapy.
