Rhea-AI Summary
Vaccinex, Inc. will be presenting novel findings for its lead product, pepinemab, at the 38th Annual Meeting of the Society for Immunotherapy of Cancer. The studies demonstrate that pepinemab induces the formation of lymphoid structures in tumors, which promote efficient immune responses and improved outcomes to immune checkpoint inhibitors. In the Phase 2 KEYNOTE-B84 study, pepinemab in combination with Merck's anti-PD-1 therapy showed a doubling of objective responses and progression-free survival in patients with hard-to-treat tumors. Another study with collaborators at Emory University showed that pepinemab in combination with nivolumab and/or ipilimumab induced tertiary lymphoid structures in tumors, resulting in ongoing response in 8 out of 8 patients for more than 2 years.
