Evaxion will present new biomarker and immune data stemming from the ongoing phase 2 trial with EVX-01. The two-year clinical efficacy data from the trial will, as earlier announced, be presented in an oral presentation at the ESMO (Free ESMO Whitepaper) 2025 congress on October 17, 2025. Both datasets will add to an already strong data package for EVX-01, which includes convincing one-year interim data from the phase 2 trial.

The phase 2 trial investigates EVX-01 in combination with MSD’s (Merck & Co., Inc., Rahway, NJ, USA) anti-PD-1 therapy, KEYTRUDA (pembrolizumab) in patients with advanced melanoma (skin cancer). Each patient enrolled in the trial has received a unique vaccine designed and manufactured based on their individual biology. KEYTRUDA is a registered trademark of Merck Sharp & Dohme LLC, a subsidiary of Merck & Co., Inc., Rahway, NJ, USA.

About EVX-01

EVX-01 is a personalized peptide-based cancer vaccine intended for first-line treatment of multiple advanced solid cancers. It is Evaxion’s lead clinical asset.

EVX-01 is designed with our AI-Immunology platform and is tailored to target the unique tumor profile and immune characteristics of each patient. It engages the patient’s immune system to fight off cancer by mounting a targeted response against tumors.

In clinical trials, EVX-01 has demonstrated 69% and 67% Overall Response Rates in patients with advanced melanoma. Further, significant correlations between clinical responses and AI-Immunology predictions have been observed, underlining the predictive power of the platform.

Poster details

Title: "Profiling of the neoantigen-specific T cell response after adjuvant TG4050 individualized therapeutic vaccination in a randomized Phase 1 trial for locally advanced resected HPV negative HNSCC".

Poster and abstract number: 502
Date: November 8, 2025
Author: C. Le Tourneau
The abstract will be available on the SITC (Free SITC Whitepaper) website on November 4, 2025, at 9 a.m. ET.

TG4050 is an individualized immunotherapy being developed for solid tumors that is based on Transgene’s myvac technology and powered by NEC’s longstanding artificial intelligence (AI) expertise. TG4050 is being evaluated in a randomized multicenter Phase I/II clinical trial as a single agent in the adjuvant treatment of HPV-negative head and neck cancers (NCT04183166).

Transgene previously presented in a rapid oral presentation at the ASCO (Free ASCO Whitepaper) conference in June 2025, that all patients from Phase I who received TG4050 remained disease-free after a minimum of 2-year follow-up, comparing favorably to the observational arm which saw 3 out of 16 patients relapse during the same time period.

Transgene and NEC are continuing the joint development of TG4050 in this indication with a Phase II extension of the trial, which is currently enrolling patients.
