Answered by AI

What aims is this trial attempting to accomplish?

"The primary target outcome of this two-year analysis is the Objective Response Rate (ORR). Secondary metrics encompass Overall Survival (OS), Clinical Benefit Rate (CBR), and Duration of Stable Disease, as evaluated using RECIST version 1.1 guidelines."

Answered by AI

What are the safety concerns associated with AB-16B5?

"AB-16B5 achieved a safety score of 2 after our team at Power evaluated the data from this Phase 2 trial. While there is evidence to suggest that it can be considered safe, there are no studies yet confirming its efficacy."

Answered by AI
