Interim Data from Ph 1b/2 Study of Abequolixron (RGX-104) in R/R Lung Cancer Announced
“The data thus far demonstrate that abequolixron is well tolerated in combination with full dose docetaxel, while showing encouraging clinical activity suggesting that this drug candidate could be a valuable addition to a current standard of care chemotherapy in heavily-pretreated patients with lung cancer,” said Hossein Borghaei, D.O., M.S., Chief of the Division of Thoracic Medical Oncology at Fox Chase Cancer Center and Principal Investigator on the study. “I am very encouraged by the overall response rate, disease control rate, and time to progression so far seen in the study and I look forward to further evaluation of this unique compound as the clinical trial progresses.”
