Yesterday, pharma giants Moderna and Merck presented new findings on their skin cancer vaccine. The companies said results from a Phase 2 trial showed that combining their experimental mRNA shot with immunotherapy could reduce the risk of death or the return of melanoma by 44%. If you’re wondering why mRNA sounds familiar, it’s because it’s the same tech used in some COVID vaccines. In this case, the mRNA shot doesn’t help prevent the disease. Instead, it's designed to reduce a high-risk patient's chances of getting the cancer again. Now, researchers are showing that individualized vaccines could help battle one of the deadliest skin cancers in the world.
How did the trial work?
Grab your lab coats, here’s where it can get technical. The trial followed 157 patients who had their melanoma tumor surgically removed but had a high risk of their cancer returning. After analyzing each tumor, researchers created a personalized mRNA vaccine that trained a patient's immune system to recognize and fight 34 different proteins linked to the cancer. Over the course of the trial, 107 patients received nine doses of their personalized shot and 18 cycles of Merck's immunotherapy drug Keytruda — which prevents cancer cells from hiding. The 50 remaining patients only received the immunotherapy drug. The trial results found that about 79% of people who used both treatments were cancer-free 18 months later, compared to about 62% of patients who used Keytruda alone. Side effects included fatigue and chills.
