ALG.APV-527 Meets Important Trial Endpoints in Ph 1 Solid Tumor Trial
“The interim results from Phase 1 trials of ALG.APV-527 are showing encouraging outcomes, particularly in terms of safety and disease stability in the trial patients who were refractory to multiple previous therapies. Among evaluable patients, 56% (9/16) achieved stable disease in this monotherapy trial. A colon cancer patient remained on study with stable disease for more than six months as well as a breast cancer patient who remained stable for over 11 months. Importantly, there were no instances of serious liver toxicity, a notable outcome given the relatively high incidence of this side effect associated with other treatments targeting 4-1BB. By leveraging a novel bispecific approach, ALG.APV-527 aims to enhance anti-tumor immunity while avoiding the systemic toxicities that previously have hampered the 4-1BB immune receptor pathway. These findings underscore the drug’s potential as a viable option for patients with solid tumors,” noted Dr. Thomas Marron, MD, PhD, Professor of Immunology & Immunotherapy and Hematology/Oncology at the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai, and a leading investigator in the trial.
