Dr. Franz-Werner Haas, Chief Corporate Officer of CureVac, stated, “We are convinced there is tremendous potential in combining mRNA-based vaccines with PD-1 checkpoint inhibitors for the treatment of a wide range of cancers and infectious diseases. Anti-PD-1 antibody therapy is becoming standard of care in several cancer indications, and combination approaches are now recognized as optimal for the development of mRNA cancer vaccines. Therefore, this patent adds considerable value to our company and our IP estate. Together with our extensive experience in the development of mRNA-based cancer vaccines this encourages us to advance and expand our RNActive® Cancer Immunotherapy pipeline.”
