INT230-6 +/- Ipilimumab Shows Evidence of Direct Tumor Necrosis and Promising OS Results in Adult Subjects with Metastatic Sarcomas
“Preliminary data suggests that INT230-6, as a monotherapy or in combination with the immune checkpoint blocker ipilimumab, demonstrates direct tumor killing in soft tissue sarcoma (STS) and elicits an anti-cancer immune response within the injected tumor,” stated Matthew Ingham, M.D., assistant professor of medicine in the Division of Hematology and Oncology, Columbia University Vagelos College of Physicians and Surgeons, and a principal investigator for the trial. “To date, INT230-6 treatment related adverse events are mostly low grade and the drug is well-tolerated either as a monotherapy or in combination with ipilimumab. Additionally, in patients who had 40% or more of their tumor burden treated with INT230-6, an exploratory analysis showed that overall survival was improved when compared to historical benchmarks for this patient population.”
