FAILED TRIAL: ASPEN-03 and ASPEN-04 Ph 2 Trials of Evorpacept + Checkpoint Inhibitor for the Treatment of Head and Neck Cancers Did Not Meet Primary Endpoints
“Moving forward, we are continuing to rapidly advance our clinical program combining evorpacept with anti-cancer antibodies supported by robust clinical data across trials in multiple tumor types. Evorpacept has demonstrated response rates and durability beyond what is expected from standard of care across several studies when combined with HERCEPTIN®, zanidatamab and RITUXAN®,” said Jason Lettmann, Chief Executive Officer at ALX Oncology. “Based on the positive data and strong mechanistic rationale, we maintain our confidence in the evorpacept clinical development program and intend to deliver on that promise with additional clinical data in breast cancer and colorectal cancer in the near-term. With evorpacept and ALX2004, our novel EGFR-targeted antibody-drug conjugate, we continue our commitment to bringing forth meaningful therapies for patients living with cancer.”
