Namodenoson Positive Data in Ph 2a Pancreatic cancer and 9 Years Cancer-Free Survival in Liver Cancer Patient Announced
Phase 2a study in pancreatic cancer met its primary endpoint of safety in heavily pretreated patients. The study continues to follow patients for overall survival, with data maturing over time; currently more than 30% of patients are alive at last data cut-off. A patient with advanced HCC, treated with Namodenoson has reached an overall survival of more than 9 years with complete response to treatment. The patient was enrolled into a Phase 2 study and continues to be treated with Namodenoson through a compassionate use program. Nine years following treatment, the patient remains cancer-free and meets the definition of a complete responder based on the disappearance of all tumor lesions and good quality of life. Namodenoson continues to advance in a Phase 3 study for hepatocellular carcinoma, supported by Orphan Drug and Fast Track designations from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration, reinforcing its potential as a novel therapeutic option in liver oncology.
