Primary Endpoints for Efficacy and Safety Achieved in VIRAGE Ph 2b Trial of VCN-01 with Gemcitabine/nab-Paclitaxel in 1L Metastatic Pancreatic Cancer Patients
“The exciting topline data from the VIRAGE Phase 2b trial demonstrate the potential opportunity for VCN-01 to benefit metastatic PDAC patients treated with gemcitabine/nab-paclitaxel SoC chemotherapy.” said Steven A. Shallcross, Chief Executive Officer of Theriva Biologics. “The significantly reduced hazard ratios for survival parameters in the VCN-01 treatment group provide compelling evidence that VCN-01 in combination with gemcitabine/nab-paclitaxel may extend the lives of metastatic PDAC patients. These data, combined with recent advice from the U.S. FDA and the European Medical Agency, are expected to facilitate engagement with industry partners and enable the design of a Phase 3 confirmatory trial that, if successful, may deliver an important new therapeutic option for patients suffering this rapidly fatal disease.”
