Melanoma Treatment Achieves Positive Interim Results. The U-T San Diego (12/30, Fikes) reports OncoSec Medica said it “achieved positive interim results in a Phase 2 trial of its melanoma treatment.” The company, which develops immune therapies for cancer, disclosed the results Dec. 16 at the Advances in Cancer Immunotherapy meeting at UC San Francisco. The paper says “the trial adds to evidence presented this year that cancer immunotherapy is becoming more effective.” According to the paper, of 21 patients evaluated 180 days after treatment, “eight experienced tumor reductions of 30 percent or more. The disease stabilized in another two patients for at least three months, bringing clinical benefit.” The company’s treatment, OMS-I100, “adds a gene in the tumor that makes an immune-stimulating molecule, interleukin-12.”
