Neoadjuvant PD-1 Blockade in Resectable Merkel Cell Carcinoma
Recruiting
The main purpose of this study is to determine the response of Merkel cell carcinoma to pembrolizumab before surgery and to determine whether it further reduces the risk for disease recurrence. Another purpose of this study is to look at the side effects that occur when the experimental drug pembrolizumab is given to people with Merkel cell carcinoma before and after their standard of care surgery to remove the Merkel cell carcinoma.

A Clinical Trial to Evaluate the Safety and Immunogenicity of CH505M5 N197D mRNA-gp160 Followed by CH505 TF mRNA-gp160 in Adults in Overall Good Health Without HIV
Recruiting
This is a multicenter, open-label, non-randomized, dose escalation, first-in-human (FIH) trial to evaluate the safety and immunogenicity of CH505M5 N197D mRNA-gp160 and CH505 TF mRNA-gp160. Both products are mRNA encapsulated in lipid nanoparticles (LNPs) (subsequently referred to as mRNA-LNPs). The primary hypotheses are: 1. the CH505M5 N197D mRNA-gp160 will expand CH235-like B cell precursors, 2. the CH505 TF mRNA-gp160 will boost CH235-like bnAb B cell precursors to acquire more functional m...
