Bristol Myers Squibb, Immunocore Holdings ink pact to evaluate IMC-F106C, nivolumab combo in registrational Phase 3 first-line advanced cutaneous melanoma trial
Oxfordshire: Immunocore Holdings plc, a commercial-stage biotechnology company has announced that it has entered into a clinical trial collaboration and supply agreement with Bristol Myers Squibb to investigate Immunocore's ImmTAC bispecific TCR (T cell receptor) candidate targeting PRAME HLA-A02, IMC-F106C, in combination with Bristol Myers Squibb’s nivolumab, in first-line advanced cutaneous melanoma.
Under the terms of the collaboration, Immunocore will sponsor and fund the registrational Phase 3 clinical trial of IMC-F106C in combination with nivolumab in first-line advanced cutaneous melanoma (PRISM-MEL-301), and Bristol Myers Squibb will provide nivolumab.
The PRISM-MEL-301 trial will randomize HLA-A*02:01+ first-line advanced cutaneous melanoma patients to IMC-F106C + nivolumab versus a control arm of either nivolumab or the fixed-dose combination of nivolumab and relatlimab, depending on the country where the patient is enrolled. Immunocore plans to randomize the first patient in this trial in the first quarter of 2024.
Immunocore is a commercial-stage biotechnology company developing a novel class of TCR bispecific immunotherapies called ImmTAX – Immune mobilizing monoclonal TCRs Against X disease – designed to treat a broad range of diseases, including cancer, autoimmune, and infectious disease.
The Company is developing a deep pipeline in multiple therapeutic areas, including five clinical stage programs in oncology and infectious disease, advanced pre-clinical programs in autoimmune disease and multiple earlier pre-clinical programs.
