    Johnson & Johnson reports 77% response rate in Phase 1b/2 Rybrevant study

    Question

    Johnson & Johnson reports 77% response rate in Phase 1b/2 Rybrevant study

    Direct answer

    Johnson & Johnson announced results from the Phase 1b/2 OrigAMI-4 trial evaluating subcutaneous amivantamab in combination with pembrolizumab and carboplatin for first-line advanced head and neck squamous cell carcinoma. The combination yielded a 77% overall response rate among treated patients. The trial targets non-HPV related presentations of HNSCC, an aggressive subcategory with limited durable frontline options. Confirmation of clinical efficacy in subcutaneous delivery also supports easier administration compared to intravenous alternatives, strengthening franchise retention. — bullish pressure on JNJ.
