Omid Hamid, MD, of The Angeles Clinic and Research Institute, a Cedars-Sinai affiliate, discusses updated data on IMC-F106C, a novel bispecific protein that, in a phase I safety and efficacy study, exhibited clinical activity in patients with unresectable or metastatic cutaneous melanoma who were pretreated with immune checkpoint inhibitors. A phase III trial of IMC-F106C with nivolumab in the first-line setting of metastatic disease has been initiated (NCT06112314; Abstract 9507).
