Frequently asked questions about CVA21/pembrolizumab

What is CVA21/pembrolizumab used for?

CVA21/pembrolizumab is an investigational combination therapy being studied for the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer. It combines the monoclonal antibody pembrolizumab with CVA21, an oncolytic virus. The therapy is currently in Phase 1 clinical development and is not yet approved by regulatory authorities.

Who makes CVA21/pembrolizumab?

CVA21/pembrolizumab is being developed by Merck & Company, Inc., which trades under the ticker symbol MRK. The company is conducting clinical trials to evaluate this combination therapy for non-small cell lung cancer and bladder cancer.

What phase is CVA21/pembrolizumab in?

CVA21/pembrolizumab is in Phase 1 clinical development. The therapy is investigational and has not received regulatory approval. One Phase 1 trial has been completed, and the combination is being evaluated for safety and preliminary efficacy in patients with non-small cell lung cancer.

What clinical trials is CVA21/pembrolizumab in?

CVA21/pembrolizumab was studied in clinical trial NCT02043665, titled "CVA21 and Pembrolizumab in NSCLC & Bladder Cancer (VLA-009 STORM/KEYNOTE-200)." This Phase 1 trial enrolled 85 participants and has been completed. The study was conducted in the United States, Australia, and the United Kingdom.

How does CVA21/pembrolizumab work?

CVA21/pembrolizumab combines two agents: pembrolizumab, a monoclonal antibody that targets PD-1 to enhance the immune system's ability to fight cancer, and CVA21, an oncolytic virus designed to infect and destroy cancer cells. Together, they aim to stimulate an anti-tumor immune response in non-small cell lung cancer.
