Extended Clinical Benefit Over Multiple Clinical Endpoints Reported from Ph 3 Trial of Aglatimagene Besadenovec in Localized Prostate Cancer at longer Follow-up
“After prolonged follow-up, these data further demonstrated that aglatimagene delivered a statistically significant and clinically meaningful improvement in prostate cancer–specific disease-free survival, with a 39% reduction in the risk of recurrence,” said Paul Peter Tak, M.D., Ph.D., FMedSci, President and Chief Executive Officer of Candel Therapeutics. “Importantly, we are seeing consistent, favorable trends across multiple clinically relevant secondary and exploratory endpoints, including time to biochemical failure, time to metastasis, and need for subsequent anti-cancer therapy. These findings, combined with earlier evidence of increased pathological complete response at two years, reinforce our confidence that aglatimagene has the potential to deliver durable control of both local and systemic disease and to meaningfully reduce the risk of recurrence for patients undergoing radiotherapy with curative intent for localized prostate cancer. We will continue to follow patients as these data mature, with the expectation that the long-term clinical benefit may become even more apparent over time.”
