Immunocore says Kimmtrak lifts 5-year survival to 16% in metastatic uveal melanoma trial
  • Immunocore reported five-year follow-up from Phase 3 trial of KIMMTRAK in previously untreated metastatic uveal melanoma, with results presented at AACR 2026.
  • Study showed patients on KIMMTRAK were more likely to be alive at five years than those given investigator’s choice therapy.
  • Benefit held across key high-risk patient groups, supporting KIMMTRAK’s position as first-line standard of care for eligible HLA-A*02:01-positive patients.
  • Data indicated long-term survival was mainly driven by starting KIMMTRAK up front rather than later treatment switches.
  • Management highlighted extended survival even when scans showed early disease worsening, backing continued use beyond initial progression in selected patients.
