Merus N.V. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MRUS#NASDAQ">MRUS</a>) shares are trading higher Friday after the company reported promising interim results from its ongoing phase 2 trial evaluating petosemtamab in combination with pembrolizumab for <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/05/g45576972/merus-petosemtamab-with-pembrolizumab-interim-data-demonstrates-robust-efficacy-and-durability-in-">head and neck cancer.</a>
What To Know: The data, which will be formally presented at the 2025 ASCO Annual Meeting, showed a 63% overall response rate and a 79% 12-month overall survival rate among 43 evaluable patients with PD-L1+ recurrent/metastatic head and neck squamous cell carcinoma.
The trial also reported a median progression-free survival of nine months, with six patients achieving complete responses and 21 showing partial responses.
