In head-to-head clinical trial, Chinese firm Akeso’s ivonescimab beat top-selling drug pembrolizumab sold as Keytruda by Merck. Ivonescimab reduced risk of tumour progression by 49%.

In 2021, the FDA criticised MSD for relying on an early endpoint to seek approval for Keytruda in early-stage TNBC.

The China-based trial enrolled 398 patients who were randomised to the ivonescimab and Keytruda arms at a one-to-one ratio.
