Strong Efficacy of THIO as Third-Line Treatment for NSCLC Patients Announced
“As an impressive measure of efficacy, the strong response rate of 38% in third-line treatment supports our premise that THIO administration prior to cemiplimab can improve tumor responses to immunotherapy in advanced NSCLC patients resistant to CPIs and other standard treatments,” said Vlad Vitoc, M.D., MAIA’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “Around 60-70% of NSCLC patients do not have a targetable mutation and cannot benefit from a biomarker-targeted therapy, making it the greatest unmet medical need population in lung cancer. In currently available treatments for these patients in third-line, response rates range around 6%.1 We are encouraged by the excellent efficacy findings in THIO-101 to date, adding impressive ORR to unprecented disease control rates (DCR), and further demonstrating the potential of our first-in-class treatment to redefine the standard of care for NSCLC patients.”
