BMS Reports the EMA’s Validation of Application for Opdivo Plus Yervoy to Treat Hepatocellular Carcinoma
Shots:
- The EMA has validated the Type II variation application of Opdivo + Yervoy as a 1L treatment of unresectable or advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), not administered with previous systemic therapy
- The application is based on P-III (CheckMate -9DW) study assessing Opdivo (1mg/kg, Q3W) + Yervoy (3mg/kg, Q3W) followed by Opdivo alone (480mg) for 2yrs. vs investigator’s choice of lenvatinib or sorafenib alone to treat unresectable or advanced HCC patients (n=668)
- The study showed improved OS and a manageable safety profile that aligned with previous outcomes without any new concerns. Data was highlighted at ASCO 2024
