VaccineClinical Study
Inovio spinout Geneos Therapeutics said Tuesday that it has three new partial responses and one case of stable disease from a mid-stage liver cancer trial testing its personalized cancer vaccine candidate in combination with Merck’s Keytruda. However, the biotech is claiming these responses as “complete molecular responses.”
Geneos reported the four “complete molecular responses” Tuesday morning, touting an analysis of the patient’s circulating tumor DNA, or ctDNA. That metric offers a different picture from RECIST1.1, which Geneos CEO Niranjan Sardesai acknowledged is the gold standard for determining objective responses, or changes in tumor size.
