BioNTech SE, in collaboration with Genentech, Inc., is conducting a Phase II clinical trial titled A Multi-site, Open-label, Phase II, Randomized, Controlled Trial to Compare the Efficacy of RO7198457 Versus Watchful Waiting in Resected, Stage II (High Risk) and Stage III Colorectal Cancer Patients Who Are ctDNA Positive Following Resection. The study aims to evaluate the efficacy of RO7198457, an intravenous drug, compared to the standard watchful waiting approach in patients with specific stages of colorectal cancer who are ctDNA positive post-surgery.
The intervention being tested is RO7198457, administered intravenously, intended to treat patients by potentially reducing cancer recurrence in those identified as ctDNA positive following surgical resection.
The study is designed as an interventional, randomized, parallel assignment with no masking, primarily focused on treatment. Participants are divided into groups receiving either RO7198457 or undergoing watchful waiting.
The trial began on March 8, 2021, with primary completion and estimated study completion dates yet to be announced. The latest update was submitted on July 24, 2025, indicating ongoing recruitment and data collection.
This study could significantly impact BioNTech’s stock performance, given the potential of RO7198457 to address unmet needs in colorectal cancer treatment. Success in this trial may enhance investor confidence and position BioNTech favorably against competitors in the oncology sector.
The study is ongoing, with further details accessible on the ClinicalTrials portal.
