Positive End-of-Phase 2 Meeting with FDA Regarding the Design of a Ph 3 Trial of VCN-01 in Metastatic Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma Announced
“We are very pleased to align with the FDA on the key elements of our proposed pivotal Phase 3 trial evaluating VCN-01 plus gemcitabine/nab-paclitaxel SoC in metastatic PDAC patients,” said Steven A. Shallcross, Chief Executive Officer of Theriva Biologics. “Data from our VIRAGE Phase 2b study demonstrated improved outcomes in PDAC patients treated with 2 doses of VCN-01 and we believe that administering multiple macrocycles of VCN-01 and gemcitabine/nab-paclitaxel that may further improve patient outcomes. The combined feedback from the FDA and the EMA now enables us to finalize the protocol for a pivotal Phase 3 clinical trial and pursue development funding and/or partnerships, which, if successful, may deliver a novel and effective treatment option for patients with this difficult to treat solid tumor cancer.”
