Item 8.01 Other Events.
On May 24, 2024, the Company announced final results from the Phase 2 CORE-001 clinical trial of its oncolytic immunotherapy candidate, cretostimogene, in combination with pembrolizumab for the treatment of BCG-Unresponsive, High-Risk Non-Muscle Invasive Bladder Cancer (HR-NMIBC) with Carcinoma in Situ (CIS). The data will be presented at the American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) 2024 Annual Meeting, held May 31-June 4, in Chicago, IL.
CORE-001 final results:
CORE-001 is a Phase 2 single-arm, open-label clinical trial of cretostimogene administered in 35 patients with high-risk, BCG-Unresponsive NMIBC that have CIS, in combination with pembrolizumab, following disease resection. CORE-001 was conducted pursuant to a clinical collaboration and supply agreement with Merck (known as MSD outside the United States and Canada).
Additionally, the Company believes these results support further investigation of cretostimogene in combination with checkpoint inhibitors and it plans to incorporate these findings into its planned CORE-008 trial in high-risk NMIBC.
