Merck10-Q: Data investment

Merck advances numerous new candidates into Phase 3 trials across oncology, vaccines, and HIV.

Read at SEC EDGAR

What happened

The initiation of multiple large-scale Phase 3 trials, such as for Bladder Cancer (April 2026) and Dengue Fever (June 2025), requires a significant scale-up of operational infrastructure. This drives investment in clinical trial management systems (CTMS), patient recruitment platforms, and data analytics to manage the massive increase in trial complexity and data volume.
