Merck & Co. (MRK) on Tuesday said the U.S. Food and Drug Administration accepted for review applications to include an every-six-weeks dosing schedule for its cancer drug Keytruda in six indications.

The Kenilworth, N.J., drug maker said it filed the six supplemental biologics license applications to update the dosing frequency for Keytruda in melanoma, classical Hodgkin lymphoma, primary mediastinal large B-cell lymphoma, gastric cancer, hepatocellular carcinoma and Merkel cell carcinoma.

Merck said the agency has set a target action date of Feb. 18, 2020.

Keytruda, a cancer drug that harnesses a patient's immune system to fight tumors, is currently approved for dosing every three weeks.
