Clip from today's blog post about distant survival without recurrence: Red from me:
Data Being Presented at the ASCO Annual Meeting
Today, we are presenting distant metastasis-free survival (DMFS) results from the Phase 2b randomized KEYNOTE-942/mRNA-4157-P201 study. In the overall intention-to-treat population, adjuvant treatment with mRNA-4157 (V940) in combination with KEYTRUDA demonstrated a statistically significant and clinically meaningful improvement in DMFS, a key secondary endpoint of the study, compared with KEYTRUDA alone and reduced the risk of developing distant metastases or death by 65% (HR = 0.347 [95% CI, 0.145- 0.828]); one-sided p value=0.0063). The secondary endpoint of DMFS, defined as the time from the first dose of KEYTRUDA until the date of first distant recurrence or death from any cause, was pre-specified for statistical testing following the positive primary endpoint of recurrence-free survival (RFS).

Now I'm convinced they will file for approval bases on P2 while P3 becomes "confirmatory." I also believe, based on the results to date and assuming no disaster news from either trial, that FDA will grant expedited but conditional (on P3) approval.
