Pfizer, Astellas and Merck Against Bladder Cancer

Chris Boshoff, Chief Scientific Officer and President of Research and Development at Pfizer, shared a post on LinkedIn:

“We’re very pleased to share new positive topline results for our antibody-drug conjugate plus PD-1 inhibitor from an additional Phase 3 study in early-stage bladder cancer with Astellas Pharma and Merck.

The trial showed clinically meaningful and statistically significant event-free and overall survival results with our treatment regimen when used before and after surgery in people with muscle-invasive Bladder Cancer (MIBC) who are eligible for cisplatin-based chemotherapy.

These results, combined with the recent unprecedented results from the cisplatin-ineligible MIBC study, showcase the promising future of this regimen as a potential cornerstone of care for bladder cancer regardless of cisplatin eligibility.

I would like to extend my gratitude to the patients, families and investigators who contributed to this key global study, addressing a significant clinical unmet need.”
