(a) Indemnification by Merck. Merck will indemnify Moderna, its Affiliates and their respective directors, officers, employees and agents, and their respective successors, heirs and assigns (collectively, “Moderna Indemnitees”), and defend and save each of them harmless, from and against any and all losses, damages, liabilities, costs and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and expenses) (collectively, “Losses”) in connection with any and all suits, investigations, claims or demands of Third Parties (collectively, “Third Party Claims”) arising from or occurring as a result of: [***], except in each case [***] for those Losses and Third Party Claims for which Moderna has an obligation to indemnify Merck pursuant to Section 13.6(b) (or would have had such Third Party Claim been made against Merck under this Agreement), as to which Losses each Party will indemnify the other to the extent of their respective liability; provided, that Merck will not be obligated to indemnify Moderna Indemnitees for any Losses or Third Party Claims to the extent that such Losses or Third Party Claims arise as a result of gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of a Moderna Indemnitee or breach of this Agreement by Moderna.

(b) Indemnification by Moderna. Moderna will indemnify Merck, its Affiliates and their respective directors, officers, employees and agents, and their respective successors, heirs and assigns (collectively, “Merck Indemnitees”), and defend and save each of them harmless, from and against any and all Losses in connection with any and all Third Party Claims arising from or occurring as a result of: [***] except in each case ((i)-(vii)) for those Losses and Third Party Claims for which Merck has an obligation to indemnify Moderna pursuant to Section 13.6(a) (or would have had such Third Party Claim been made against Moderna under this Agreement), as to which Losses each Party will indemnify the other to the extent of their respective liability for the Losses; provided, that Moderna will not be obligated to indemnify Merck Indemnitees for any Losses or Third Party Claims to the extent that such Losses or Third Party Claims arise as a result of gross negligence or willful misconduct on the part of an Merck Indemnitee or breach of this Agreement by Merck.

(c) Notice of Claim. All indemnification claims provided for in Section 13.6(a) and Section 13.6(b) will be made solely by such Party to this Agreement (the “Indemnified Party”). The Indemnified Party will promptly notify the indemnifying Party (an “Indemnification Claim Notice”) of any Losses or the discovery of any fact upon which the Indemnified Party intends to base a request for indemnification under Section 13.6(a) or Section 13.6(b), but in no event will the indemnifying Party be liable for any Losses that result from any delay in providing such notice.

(d) Defense, Settlement, Cooperation and Expenses.

(i) At its option, the indemnifying Party may assume the defense of any Third Party Claim by giving written notice to the Indemnified Party within [***] days after the indemnifying Party’s receipt of an Indemnification Claim Notice. The assumption of the defense of a Third Party Claim by the indemnifying Party will not be construed as an acknowledgment that the indemnifying Party is liable to indemnify the Indemnified Party in respect of the Third Party Claim, nor will it constitute a waiver by the indemnifying Party of any defenses it may assert against the Indemnified Party’s claim for indemnification. Upon assuming the defense of a Third Party Claim, the indemnifying Party may appoint as lead counsel in the defense of the Third Party Claim any legal counsel selected by the indemnifying Party (the indemnifying Party will consult with the Indemnified Party with respect to a possible conflict of interest of such counsel retained by the indemnifying Party). In the event the indemnifying Party assumes the defense of a Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party will immediately deliver to the indemnifying Party all original notices and documents (including court papers) received by the Indemnified Party in connection with the Third Party Claim. Should the indemnifying Party assume the defense of a Third Party Claim, except as provided in Section 13.6(d)(ii), the indemnifying Party will not be liable to the Indemnified Party for any legal costs or expenses subsequently incurred by such Indemnified Party in connection with the analysis, defense or settlement of the Third Party Claim. [***]

(ii) Without limiting Section 13.6(d)(i), any Indemnified Party will be entitled to participate in, but not control, the defense of such Third Party Claim and to employ counsel of its choice for such purpose; provided, that such employment will be at the Indemnified Party’s own cost and expense unless [***].

(iii) With respect to any Third Party Claims that relate solely to the payment of money damages in connection with a Third Party Claim and that will not result in the Indemnified Party’s becoming subject to injunctive or other relief or otherwise adversely affecting the business of the Indemnified Party in any manner, and as to which the indemnifying Party will have acknowledged in writing the obligation to indemnify the Indemnified Party hereunder, the indemnifying Party will have the sole right to agree to the entry of any judgment, enter into any settlement or otherwise dispose of such Loss, on such terms as the indemnifying Party, in its sole discretion, will deem appropriate. With respect to all other Losses in connection with Third Party Claims, where the indemnifying Party has assumed the defense of the Third Party Claim in accordance with Section 13.6(d)(i), the indemnifying Party will have authority to agree to the entry of any judgment, enter into any settlement or otherwise dispose of such Loss provided it obtains the prior written consent of the Indemnified Party (such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned). The indemnifying Party will not be liable for any settlement or other disposition of a Loss by an Indemnified Party that is reached without the prior written consent of the indemnifying Party. Regardless of whether the indemnifying Party chooses to defend or prosecute any Third Party Claim, no Indemnified Party will admit any liability with respect to or settle, compromise or discharge, any Third Party Claim without the prior written consent of the indemnifying Party, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned.

(iv) If the indemnifying Party chooses to defend or prosecute any Third Party Claim, the Indemnified Party will, and will cause each other Indemnified Party to, cooperate in the defense or prosecution thereof and will furnish such records, information and testimony, provide such witnesses and attend such conferences, discovery proceedings, hearings, trials and appeals as may be reasonably requested in connection therewith. Such cooperation will include access during normal business hours afforded to indemnifying Party to, and reasonable retention by the Indemnified Party of, records and information that are reasonably relevant to such Third Party Claim, and making Indemnified Parties and other employees and agents available on a mutually convenient basis to provide additional information and explanation of any material provided hereunder, and the indemnifying Party will reimburse the Indemnified Party for all its reasonable out-of-pocket costs and expenses in connection therewith.

(v) Except as provided above in this Section 13.6(d), the reasonable and verifiable costs and expenses, including attorneys’ fees and expenses, incurred by the Indemnified Party in connection with any claim will be reimbursed on a Calendar Quarter basis by the indemnifying Party, without prejudice to the indemnifying Party’s right to contest the Indemnified Party’s right to indemnification and subject to refund in the event the indemnifying Party is ultimately held not to be obligated to indemnify the Indemnified Party.

13.7 Insurance. Each Party will maintain at its sole cost and expense, an adequate liability insurance or self-insurance program (including product liability insurance) to protect against potential liabilities and risk arising out of activities to be performed under this Agreement, and any agreement related hereto and upon such terms (including coverages, deductible limits and self-insured retentions) as are customary in the U.S. pharmaceutical industry, or, if such activities are conducted outside the U.S., as are customary in such country, for the activities to be conducted by such Party under this Agreement. The coverage limits set forth herein will not create any limitation on a Party’s liability to the other under this Agreement. Each Party shall provide the other Party with written evidence of such insurance upon request. Each Party shall provide the other Party with written notice at least [***] days prior to the cancellation, non-renewal or material change in such insurance or self-insurance which materially adversely affects the rights of the other Party hereunder.

GENERAL PROVISIONS

15.1 Dispute Resolution.

(a) Disputes. Disputes of any nature arising under, relating to, or in connection with this Agreement (“Disputes”) will be resolved pursuant to this Section 15.1.

(b) Dispute Escalation. In the event of a Dispute between the Parties, the Parties will first attempt to resolve such dispute by negotiation and consultation between themselves or the JSC. In the event that such dispute is not resolved on an informal basis within [***] days from receipt of the written notice of a Dispute, any Party may, by written notice to the other (or with respect to a Dispute arising at the JSC, by the JSC within [***] days after the JSC first considers such Dispute in accordance with Section 2.4(c)), have such dispute referred to the Executive Officers (or their designee, which designee is required to have decision-making authority on behalf of such Party), who will attempt to resolve such Dispute by negotiation and consultation for a [***] day period following receipt of such written notice.

(i) In the event the Parties have not resolved such Dispute within [***] of receipt of the written notice referring such Dispute to the Executive Officers, either Party may at any time after such [***] period submit such Dispute to be finally settled by arbitration administered in accordance with the procedural rules of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) in effect at the time of submission, as modified by this Section 15.1(c). The arbitration will be governed by the Laws of the state of New York. The arbitration will be heard and determined by three (3) arbitrators who are retired judges or attorneys with at least [***] of relevant experience in the pharmaceutical and biotechnology industry, each of whom will be impartial and independent. Each Party will appoint one (1) arbitrator and the third (3^rd) arbitrator will be selected by the two (2) Party-appointed arbitrators, or, failing agreement within [***] following appointment of the second arbitrator, by AAA. Such arbitration will take place

in [***]. The arbitration award so given will be a final and binding determination of the dispute, will be fully enforceable in any court of competent jurisdiction, and will not include any damages expressly prohibited by Section 13.5. Fees, costs and expenses of arbitration are to be divided by the Parties in the following manner: Merck will pay for the arbitrator it chooses, Moderna will pay for the arbitrator it chooses, and the Parties will share payment for the third arbitrator. Except in a proceeding to enforce the results of the arbitration or as otherwise required by applicable Law, neither Party nor any arbitrator may disclose the existence, content or results of any arbitration hereunder without the prior written consent of both Parties (each such consent not to be unreasonably withheld, delayed or conditioned).

(ii) In addition to the foregoing provisions of this Section 15.1(c), in the event that a provision of this Agreement requires “Special Arbitration”, then the following rules will apply with respect to the Dispute that is subject to Special Arbitration: Within [***] of the appointment of the third (3rd) arbitrator, each Party will submit to the arbitrators in writing its final proposal for resolving the matter that is the subject of such Dispute (“Dispute Proposal”) and any relevant background information and materials it deems appropriate. In connection with reaching its decision, the arbitrators may (A) order the Parties to produce any documents or other information that are relevant to the arbitrators’ decision, and (B) if the arbitrators deem it necessary, set a date for a hearing no later than [***] Business Days (or such other period of time as agreed to by the Parties) after submission of the last Dispute Proposal, to be attended by both Parties with each Party having the right to be represented by counsel of its choice. The arbitrators will determine which of the two Dispute Proposals submitted by the Parties will prevail in the Special Arbitration in the best interest of the applicable Collaboration Product(s), and will not have authority to render any other substantive decision. The Dispute Proposal selected by the arbitrators shall be binding on the Parties (and, to the extent such Dispute Proposal amends a Plan or budget for a given Program, such Plan or budget shall be deemed amended to the effect of such selected Dispute Proposal, as applicable). Such decision will be rendered by the arbitrators no later than [***] Business Days after the later of (x) receipt by the arbitrators of the Parties’ Dispute Proposals as set forth in this Section 15.1(c), or (y) the conclusion of any hearing conducted pursuant to clause (B) above. The Parties will use diligent efforts to cause the completion of any such arbitration within [***] following the initiating Party’s written notice to submit the Dispute to Special Arbitration (or such longer period of time as the Parties may mutually agree).

(d) Injunctive Relief. Notwithstanding the dispute resolution procedures set forth in this Section 15.1, in the event of an actual or threatened breach of this Agreement, the aggrieved Party may seek provisional equitable relief (including restraining orders, specific performance or other injunctive relief), without first submitting to any dispute resolution procedures hereunder.

(e) Tolling. The Parties agree that all applicable statutes of limitation and time-based defenses (such as estoppel and laches) will be tolled while the dispute resolution procedures set forth in this Section 15.1 are pending, and the Parties will cooperate in taking all actions reasonably necessary to achieve such a result.

1.3 It is the intention of the Parties to interpret definitions to be consistent with this Exhibit D and GAAP (except for Cost of Goods Sold given the exclusion of depreciation of certain assets in the calculation of Manufacturing Costs). Where costs included in the foregoing calculation are determined based on either Party’s system of cost or project accounting, each Party agrees to provide reasonable supporting documentation, as may be requested by the other Party, to ensure that each Party’s methodologies are reasonable and consistently applied. To the extent that such costs are not readily determinable based on the respective Party’s system of cost or project accounting, the JSC will develop a reasonable methodology for determining such costs. Reasonable methodologies may include a standard rate or some other appropriate basis for allocating costs. For reconciliation, billing and reporting hereunder, any costs included in the P&L incurred in a currency other than U.S. dollars will be translated into U.S. dollars in accordance with Section 9.5(e) of the Agreement.

1.4 If necessary, a Party will make the appropriate adjustments to the financial information it supplies under this Exhibit D to conform to the above format of reporting results of operation.

1.5 Principles:

1.5.1 In calculating the revenues and costs in this Exhibit D, the following principles shall apply:

(a) There shall be no double counting of any costs or expenses or of any revenues, and to the extent a cost or expense has been included in one category or sub-category, it shall not be included in another; similarly, to the extent any revenue has been taken into account in one category or sub-category it shall not be taken into account in another.

(b) To the extent an item of income or revenue is received by a Party or a cost or expense is incurred in a given Calendar Quarter by a Party, and can be demonstrated [***].

(c) To the extent any cost by a Party has applicability to both the Collaboration Product and to any other product, a portion of such costs will be [***] allocated by such Party to the Collaboration Product in good faith; provided the other Party shall have the right to dispute such allocation in good faith and request additional information prior to including such cost as a Shared Collaboration Cost under this Exhibit D. In addition, to the extent any cost by a Party has applicability to more than one Program, a portion of such costs will be [***] allocated by such Party to each applicable Program in good faith; provided the other Party shall have the right to dispute such allocation in good faith and request additional information prior to including such cost as a Shared Collaboration Cost for the applicable Program under this Exhibit D.

(d) All costs and expenses shall be determined, and all calculations shall be made, in accordance with GAAP, as applicable, and consistent with the Parties internal cost allocation practices used in connection with pharmaceutical products owned or controlled solely by each Party without requirement to share profits or significant royalties with any Third Party, and further consistent with the same policies and principles as it utilizes consistently within its group and business units when making internal cost allocations.

Without limiting the foregoing, if either Party in good faith believes that the methodology set forth herein does not accurately reflect the revenues and costs for a Collaboration Product, Program or otherwise for the Collaboration, upon request of such Party, the Parties shall in good faith discuss such concerns and, if the Parties mutually agree upon acceptable revisions to the methodologies set forth herein, they shall amend Exhibit B, Exhibit D or Exhibit E, as appropriate. For clarity, the foregoing principles shall also apply to the costs and expenses calculated in Exhibit E mutatis mutandis.

2.	Cash Profits or Losses and Shared Collaboration Costs.

2.1 If Merck elects the Merck Participation Election for a given Program, each Party is entitled to fifty percent (50%) of the Cash Profits or Losses from such Program for a given [***] subject to this Exhibit D.

2.2 Certain Exclusions from Shared Collaboration Costs. To the extent any Manufacturing Costs are incurred by a Party due to [***] by such Party, then such Manufacturing Costs shall be borne solely by such Party and shall not be included in Cost of Goods Sold to be included in the Shared Costs Report hereunder.

3. Audits. The record keeping and audit provisions set forth in Section 9.5(c) of the Agreement will apply with respect to all amounts payable by either Party to the other Party under the Profit & Loss Share.

4. Reporting of Shared Costs. Within [***] days after the end of [***], each Party shall provide the other Party with a detailed activity-based summary statement (with supporting documentation [***] of the Shared Collaboration Costs and Costs of Goods Sold incurred by or on behalf of such Party (or its Affiliate or Sublicensee) in such [***], as applicable (each, a “Shared Costs Report”).

5. Reporting of Net Sales. On a [***] basis, Merck will provide to Moderna an estimate of gross sales and Net Sales of such Collaboration Product in U.S. dollars during the prior [***] and units of such Collaboration Product sold during such period according to Merck’s sales reporting system, which will be consistent with the financial planning, accounting and reporting procedures set forth in this Exhibit D.

Subject to the remainder of this Exhibit D, within [***] days after the end of [***], each Party will provide to the other a written report setting forth the calculations of aggregate Net Sales and aggregate costs under the Shared Costs Report for such [***] received or funded by such Party. Within [***] days after receipt of such reports, the Parties will agree on a consolidated written report (the “Reconciliation Report”) setting forth the calculations of each Party’s share of such aggregate Net Sales and aggregate costs under the Shared Costs Report and the net amount that would be owed from one Party to the other Party to effectuate, subject to Paragraph 6.1 of this Section A of Exhibit D, an equal share of the resulting Cash Profits or Losses between the Parties. Such net amount would then be adjusted in accordance with Paragraph 17 of Section B of this Exhibit D.

Moderna and Merck Expand mRNA Cancer Vaccines Collaboration

Expansion Includes the Joint Development of Moderna’s KRAS Oncogene Program and Other

Potential mRNA Cancer Vaccines; Merck Makes Equity Investment in Moderna

CAMBRIDGE, Mass. and KENILWORTH N.J. April __, 2018 — Moderna Therapeutics and Merck (NYSE:MRK), known as MSD outside the United States and Canada, today announced an expansion of their 2016 collaboration to develop and commercialize novel personalized messenger RNA (mRNA) cancer vaccines to now include shared antigen mRNA cancer vaccines including mRNA-5671, Moderna’s mRNA KRAS cancer vaccine.

Moderna developed mRNA-5671 starting in 2017. The two companies will now advance jointly mRNA-5671 in human studies and plan to conduct combination studies with additional immuno-oncology therapies.

“Augmentation of immune responses offers great promise in cancer therapy, as our work with the PD-1-specific antibody KEYTRUDA has shown,” said Xx. Xxxxx X. Xxxxxxxxxx, President, Merck Research Laboratories. “We now look forward to expanding our exploration of mRNA cancer vaccines, working in concert with our colleagues at Moderna.”

Under the expanded agreement, Merck will be responsible for clinical development of mRNA-5671 and associated costs while Moderna will be responsible for clinical supply and associated costs. Following the completion of human proof-of-concept (hPOC) studies, Merck may opt-in on further development and commercialization of mRNA-5671 upon payment of an undisclosed fee to Moderna. Following opt-in, the parties will share equally the global net profits and costs associated with mRNA-5671. As part of this agreement, the parties may also initiate and collaborate on other shared antigen mRNA cancer vaccines programs. In addition, Merck made a $125 million investment in preferred equity in a newly priced series H round of financing. Moderna closed a $500 million series G round earlier this year.

“We are excited to advance our novel mRNA KRAS cancer vaccine approach with Merck, which further extends our mRNA platform in immuno-oncology,” said Xxxxxxxx Xxxxxx, Moderna’s Chief Executive Officer. “Along with our initial collaboration to take on the challenge of transforming the treatment of cancer by combining Merck’s KEYTRUDA with Moderna’s mRNA-based personalized cancer vaccines, we believe there is a real opportunity to also pursue a shared cancer vaccine to specifically target patients with KRAS mutations.”

KRAS is one of the most frequently mutated oncogenes in human cancer, occurring in approximately 30 percent of certain cancer types. KRAS mutations are found principally in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), colorectal cancer and pancreatic cancer, and are associated with worse outcomes. Hotspots of KRAS mutations are found in different tumor types and can serve as tumor rejection epitopes. Presentation of these epitopes to the immune system may elicit an anti-tumor response. mRNA-5671 encodes for the four most commonly found KRAS mutations, and is designed to target most of the KRAS mutations that occur in NSCLC, colorectal cancer and pancreatic cancer.

The Moderna KRAS mRNA program utilizes tumor sequencing to identify suitable patients with specific mutations in KRAS in order to personalize their therapy, and complements the other personalized mRNA cancer vaccines in the collaboration.

About the Updated Collaboration

The alliance further builds on an initial strategic collaboration agreed to in June 2016 to jointly develop personalized mRNA cancer vaccines, combining Merck’s established leadership in immuno-oncology with Moderna’s pioneering mRNA vaccine platform and GMP manufacturing capabilities, to advance individually tailored cancer vaccines for patients across a spectrum of cancers. Merck made an upfront cash payment to Moderna of $200 million, which Moderna is using to lead all research and development efforts through proof of concept.

In November, 2017 the companies announced a key milestone with the first-in-human dosing of mRNA-4157, an mRNA personalized cancer vaccine. The Phase 1 open-label, dose escalation, multicenter study in the United States (KEYNOTE-603) will assess the safety, tolerability and immunogenicity of mRNA-4157 alone in subjects with resected solid tumors and in combination with KEYTRUDA^® (pembrolizumab), an anti-PD-1 therapy, in subjects with unresectable solid tumors.

About KEYTRUDA^®(pembrolizumab) Injection 100mg

KEYTRUDA is an anti-PD-1 therapy that works by increasing the ability of the body’s immune system to help detect and fight tumor cells. KEYTRUDA is a humanized monoclonal antibody that blocks the interaction between PD-1 and its ligands, PD-L1 and PD-L2, thereby activating T lymphocytes which may affect both tumor cells and healthy cells.

Merck has the industry’s largest immuno-oncology clinical research program, which currently involves more than 700 trials studying KEYTRUDA across a wide variety of cancers and treatment settings. The KEYTRUDA clinical program seeks to understand the role of KEYTRUDA across cancers and the factors that may predict a patient’s likelihood of benefitting from treatment with KEYTRUDA, including exploring several different biomarkers.

Thyroiditis occurred in 16 (0.6%) of 2799 patients receiving KEYTRUDA, including Grade 2 (0.3%) thyroiditis. Monitor patients for changes in thyroid function (at the start of treatment, periodically during treatment, and as indicated based on clinical evaluation) and for clinical signs and symptoms of thyroid disorders. Administer replacement hormones for hypothyroidism and manage hyperthyroidism with thionamides and beta-blockers as appropriate. Withhold or discontinue KEYTRUDA for Grade 3 or 4 hyperthyroidism.

KEYTRUDA can cause type 1 diabetes mellitus, including diabetic ketoacidosis, which have been reported in 6 (0.2%) of 2799 patients. Monitor patients for hyperglycemia or other signs and symptoms of diabetes. Administer insulin for type 1 diabetes, and withhold KEYTRUDA and administer antihyperglycemics in patients with severe hyperglycemia.

KEYTRUDA can cause immune-mediated nephritis. Nephritis occurred in 9 (0.3%) of 2799 patients receiving KEYTRUDA, including Grade 2 (0.1%), 3 (0.1%), and 4 (<0.1%) nephritis. Monitor patients for changes in renal function. Administer corticosteroids for Grade 2 or greater nephritis. Withhold KEYTRUDA for Grade 2; permanently discontinue KEYTRUDA for Grade 3 or 4 nephritis.

Immune-mediated rashes, including Xxxxxxx-Xxxxxxx syndrome (SJS), toxic epidermal necrolysis (TEN) (some cases with fatal outcome), exfoliative dermatitis, and bullous pemphigoid, can occur. Monitor patients for suspected severe skin reactions and based on the severity of the adverse reaction, withhold or permanently discontinue KEYTRUDA and administer corticosteroids. For signs or symptoms of SJS or TEN, withhold KEYTRUDA and refer the patient for specialized care for assessment and treatment. If SJS or TEN is confirmed, permanently discontinue KEYTRUDA.

KEYTRUDA can cause other clinically important immune-mediated adverse reactions. These immune-mediated reactions may occur in any organ system. For suspected immune-mediated adverse reactions, ensure adequate evaluation to confirm etiology or exclude other causes. Based on the severity of the adverse reaction, withhold KEYTRUDA and administer corticosteroids. Upon improvement to Grade 1 or less, initiate corticosteroid taper and continue to taper over at least 1 month. Based on limited data from clinical studies in patients whose immune-related adverse reactions could not be controlled with corticosteroid use, administration of other systemic immunosuppressants can be considered. Resume KEYTRUDA when the adverse reaction remains at Grade 1 or less following corticosteroid taper. Permanently discontinue KEYTRUDA for any Grade 3 immune-mediated adverse reaction that recurs and for any life-threatening immune-mediated adverse reaction.

The following clinically significant immune-mediated adverse reactions occurred in less than 1% (unless otherwise indicated) of 2799 patients: arthritis (1.5%), uveitis, myositis, Guillain-Barré syndrome, myasthenia gravis, vasculitis, pancreatitis, hemolytic anemia, and partial seizures arising in a patient with inflammatory foci in brain parenchyma. In addition, myelitis and myocarditis were reported in other clinical trials, including classical Hodgkin lymphoma, and postmarketing use.

Solid organ transplant rejection has been reported in postmarketing use of KEYTRUDA. Treatment with KEYTRUDA may increase the risk of rejection in solid organ transplant recipients. Consider the benefit of treatment with KEYTRUDA vs the risk of possible organ rejection in these patients.

KEYTRUDA can cause severe or life-threatening infusion-related reactions, including hypersensitivity and anaphylaxis, which have been reported in 6 (0.2%) of 2799 patients. Monitor patients for signs and symptoms of infusion-related reactions, including rigors, chills, wheezing, pruritus, flushing, rash, hypotension, hypoxemia, and fever. For Grade 3 or 4 reactions, stop infusion and permanently discontinue KEYTRUDA.

Immune-mediated complications, including fatal events, occurred in patients who underwent allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) after being treated with KEYTRUDA. Of 23 patients with cHL who proceeded to allogeneic HSCT after treatment with KEYTRUDA on any trial, 6 patients (26%) developed graft-versus-host disease (GVHD), one of which was fatal, and 2 patients (9%) developed severe hepatic xxxx-occlusive disease (VOD) after reduced-intensity conditioning, one of which was fatal. Cases of fatal hyperacute GVHD after allogeneic HSCT have also been reported in patients with lymphoma who received a PD-1 receptor–blocking antibody before transplantation.

These complications may occur despite intervening therapy between PD-1 blockade and allogeneic HSCT. Follow patients closely for early evidence of transplant-related complications such as hyperacute GVHD, severe (Grade 3 to 4) acute GVHD, steroid-requiring febrile syndrome, hepatic VOD, and other immune-mediated adverse reactions, and intervene promptly.

In clinical trials in patients with multiple myeloma, the addition of KEYTRUDA to a thalidomide analogue plus dexamethasone resulted in increased mortality. Treatment of these patients with a PD-1 or PD-L1 blocking antibody in this combination is not recommended outside of controlled clinical trials.

Based on its mechanism of action, KEYTRUDA can cause fetal harm when administered to a pregnant woman. If used during pregnancy, or if the patient becomes pregnant during treatment, apprise the patient of the potential hazard to a fetus. Advise females of reproductive potential to use highly effective contraception during treatment and for 4 months after the last dose of KEYTRUDA.

In KEYNOTE-006, KEYTRUDA was discontinued due to adverse reactions in 9% of 555 patients with advanced melanoma; adverse reactions leading to discontinuation in more than one patient were colitis (1.4%), autoimmune hepatitis (0.7%), allergic reaction (0.4%), polyneuropathy (0.4%), and cardiac failure (0.4%). Adverse reactions leading to interruption of KEYTRUDA occurred in 21% of patients; the most common (³1%) was diarrhea (2.5%). The most common adverse reactions with KEYTRUDA vs ipilimumab were fatigue (28% vs 28%), diarrhea (26% with KEYTRUDA), rash (24% vs 23%), and nausea (21% with KEYTRUDA). Corresponding incidence rates are listed for ipilimumab only for those adverse reactions that occurred at the same or lower rate than with KEYTRUDA.

In KEYNOTE-010, KEYTRUDA monotherapy was discontinued due to adverse reactions in 8% of 682 patients with metastatic NSCLC. The most common adverse event resulting in permanent discontinuation of KEYTRUDA was pneumonitis (1.8%). Adverse reactions leading to interruption of KEYTRUDA occurred in 23% of patients; the most common (³1%) were diarrhea (1%), fatigue (1.3%), pneumonia (1%), liver enzyme elevation (1.2%), decreased appetite (1.3%), and pneumonitis (1%). The most common adverse reactions (occurring in at least 20% of patients and at a higher incidence than with docetaxel) were decreased appetite (25% vs 23%), dyspnea (23% vs 20%), and nausea (20% vs 18%).

In KEYNOTE-021(G1), when KEYTRUDA was administered in combination with carboplatin and pemetrexed (carbo/pem) in advanced nonsquamous NSCLC, KEYTRUDA was discontinued in 10% of 59 patients. The most common adverse reaction resulting in discontinuation of KEYTRUDA (³2%) was acute kidney injury (3.4%). Adverse reactions leading to interruption of KEYTRUDA occurred in 39% of

In KEYNOTE-012, KEYTRUDA was discontinued due to adverse reactions in 17% of 192 patients with HNSCC. Serious adverse reactions occurred in 45% of patients. The most frequent serious adverse reactions reported in at least 2% of patients were pneumonia, dyspnea, confusional state, vomiting, pleural effusion, and respiratory failure. The most common adverse reactions (reported in at least 20% of patients) were fatigue, decreased appetite, and dyspnea. Adverse reactions occurring in patients with HNSCC were generally similar to those occurring in patients with melanoma or NSCLC, with the exception of increased incidences of facial edema (10% all Grades; 2.1% Grades 3 or 4) and new or worsening hypothyroidism.

In KEYNOTE-087, KEYTRUDA was discontinued due to adverse reactions in 5% of 210 patients with cHL, and treatment was interrupted due to adverse reactions in 26% of patients. Fifteen percent (15%) of patients had an adverse reaction requiring systemic corticosteroid therapy. Serious adverse reactions occurred in 16% of patients. The most frequent serious adverse reactions (³1%) included pneumonia, pneumonitis, pyrexia, dyspnea, GVHD, and herpes zoster. Two patients died from causes other than disease progression; one from GVHD after subsequent allogeneic HSCT and one from septic shock. The most common adverse reactions (occurring in ³20% of patients) were fatigue (26%), pyrexia (24%), cough (24%), musculoskeletal pain (21%), diarrhea (20%), and rash (20%).

It is not known whether KEYTRUDA is excreted in human milk. Because many drugs are excreted in human milk, instruct women to discontinue nursing during treatment with KEYTRUDA and for 4 months after the final dose.

There is limited experience in pediatric patients. In a study, 40 pediatric patients (16 children aged 2 years to younger than 12 years and 24 adolescents aged 12 years to 18 years) with advanced melanoma, lymphoma, or PD-L1–positive advanced, relapsed, or refractory solid tumors were administered KEYTRUDA 2 mg/kg every 3 weeks. Patients received KEYTRUDA for a median of 3 doses (range 1–17 doses), with 34 patients (85%) receiving KEYTRUDA for 2 doses or more. The safety profile in these pediatric patients was similar to that seen in adults treated with KEYTRUDA. Toxicities that occurred at a higher rate (³15% difference) in these patients when compared to adults under 65 years of age were fatigue (45%), vomiting (38%), abdominal pain (28%), hypertransaminasemia (28%), and hyponatremia (18%).
