Merck & Co. on Thursday said its cancer drug Keytruda met one of two primary endpoints in a Phase 3 study in a form of colorectal cancer.

The Kenilworth, N.J., drug maker said Keytruda significantly improved progression-free survival as first-line treatment in patients with microsatellite instability-high or mismatch repair deficient unresectable or metastatic colorectal cancer compared with chemotherapy.

Merck said the study will continue without changes to evaluate overall survival, the other dual primary endpoint, adding that Keytruda's safety profile was consistent with previous studies, with no new safety signals identified.
