“we hope to provide additional data later this year.”
Chris Boshoff · Chief Scientific Officer
In context
“ram, you increased the patient enrollment significantly there. Just curious if you can provide any perspective on what drove that change and just maybe your broader views on the heart failure rate opportunity for that product? Thanks. Albert Bourla: Chris? Chris Boshoff: So first all, PCV-25, as Albert mentioned, this is an ongoing Phase 2 study with a potential best-in-class vaccine. The Phase 2 study is ongoing in both adults and in pediatrics. As we've mentioned earlier, Serotype 3 is very important and is emerging as a very important serotype with up to 20% to 30% of the population actually developed serotype 3. So we're very pleased that we're now seeing what looks like best-in-class immunogenicity against serotype 3. On the pediatric front, as you mentioned, the study is ongoing. So we hope to provide additional data later this year. But everything we've seen so far suggests to us that we've got improved immunogenicity of PCV-25 versus our current vaccine. Just a reminder as well, we do have a fifth generation vaccine 30-plus, that's also now in preclinical development that we hope to launch in Phase I later this year. On ponsegromab, very quickly, we're excited about the data for cancer cachexia. And the cancer cachexia study should start later this year in a Phase III experience. And we stopped the development of the cardiovascular study. Albert Bourla: Thank you. And I want to also emphasize that the development strategy on PCV-30 plus involves the development of PCV-25, so refined strategy, which is development and regulatory, that will allow us to accelerate 30-plus by investing now in 25, which will come earlier”
