From Google AI: “it appears that Regeneron has discontinued enrollment of patients receiving the combination of REGN5678 and full-dose Libtayo. This decision was made due to safety concerns, specifically the occurrence of two immune-mediated deaths in patients receiving this combination.”
“However, Regeneron is not giving up on REGN5678 entirely. They are still exploring its potential:
Exploring combinations with lower doses of Libtayo.
Planning to enroll patients in a REGN5678 monotherapy cohort.
Exploring combinations with other immunotherapy modalities.
Therefore, while the specific combination of REGN5678 with full-dose Libtayo has been discontinued, the overall development program for REGN5678 is continuing in a revised form.”
