Evaxion will present new immune data for personalized cancer vaccine EVX-01 at the SITC 2026 Annual Meeting
Evaxion will present new immune profiling data for its lead AI-designed personalized cancer vaccine EVX-01 in both an oral and poster presentation at the SITC 2026 Annual Meeting, November 4-8 in Phoenix.
The data comes from the phase 2 trial of EVX-01 plus Merck's KEYTRUDA (pembrolizumab) in advanced melanoma and highlights systemic immunomodulatory effects beyond vaccine-specific T-cell responses.
Complete three-year clinical data, including year three where EVX-01 was given as stand-alone therapy, will be presented at the ESMO 2026 congress on October 24, 2026.
Previously reported two-year data showed a 75% objective response rate (12 of 16 patients, four complete responses) with 92% of patients still responding and no relapses observed.
