CEO de Moderna describe próximos pasos tras éxito de vacuna contra melanoma

El director ejecutivo de Moderna, Stéphane Bancel, declaró en Nueva York que la compañía presentará los resultados de fase 3 de su vacuna de ARNm personalizada contra el melanoma, intismeran, y explicó cómo los datos influirán en la futura dirección de investigación. El ensayo fase 3, realizado conjuntamente con Merck y combinado con Keytruda, mostró una reducción del 42 % en la recurrencia o muerte por melanoma y disminuyó el riesgo de metástasis a distancia en un 38 % frente a Keytruda solo. Los resultados cumplieron las expectativas, aunque las acciones de ambas empresas cayeron tras el anuncio.

Resumen

One claim stating that a Merck-Moderna mRNA vaccine combined with Keytruda reduced melanoma recurrence or death by 42% in a pivotal study was confirmed. Three claims were partially confirmed: the Moderna-Merck personalized mRNA vaccine intismeran reduced melanoma recurrence and death by 42% when added to Keytruda in a phase III study, Moderna's chief executive Stéphane Bancel noted the upcoming presentation of Phase 3 results for the mRNA melanoma therapy intismeran, and the combined vaccine and Keytruda regimen lowered distant metastasis risk by 38% in patients with resected melanoma. One claim reporting that Merck and Moderna announced on October 22, 2026, that their personalized mRNA vaccine combined with Keytruda reduced the risk of death or recurrence by 42% in patients with resected melanoma had not enough evidence.
