Positive Topline Results Announced from Ph 1 Portion of Ph 1/2a Trial of IMM-1-104 in RAS-Mutant Solid Tumors
“Immuneering was founded with the goal of creating medicines for broad populations of cancer patients. In designing IMM-1-104, we sought to challenge the conventional wisdom that the MAPK pathway must be targeted narrowly and inhibited chronically, and that patients must often accept grueling toxicity. Insights from our platform led us to a fundamentally new approach, Deep Cyclic Inhibition, aiming to provide better tolerability and broader, universal-RAS activity,” said Ben Zeskind, Chief Executive Officer of Immuneering. “Today’s results are an important step towards that goal, as we share positive topline data from the Phase 1 portion of our Phase 1/2a clinical trial of IMM-1-104 in advanced RAS-mutant solid tumors. We believe these results demonstrate clear proof of concept, as IMM-1-104 shrank MAPK-dependent lesions in highly aggressive, late-line cancers, prevented acquired alterations in RAS, and has been well-tolerated, showing the potential for a differentiated safety profile.”

CEO Snehal Patel commented, “We are very encouraged to see that the preliminary results from FLAMINGO-01 show immune responses in both HLA-A*02 and non-HLA-A*02 patients. We are now considering the merits of adding a randomized placebo arm for non-HLA-A*02 patients, transforming this current open label third arm into effectively a
