The synergy between CMN-001 and everolimus observed in the phase 3 study provides an opportunity to design a phase 2b study building on the mechanism of action of CMN-001 and underlying immune and clinical outcomes revealed in the earlier studies. The design of the phase 2b study combines CMN-001 with first-line checkpoint inhibition therapy and second line lenvatinib/everolimus in poor-risk mRCC subjects.
