The OPTIMA Study is the Company's global pivotal, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial, evaluating ThermoDox®, Celsion's proprietary heat-activated liposomal encapsulation of doxorubicin, in combination with radiofrequency ablation standardized to 45 minutes (sRFA) versus sRFA alone to treat newly diagnosed patients with HCC.

Celsion Reports Translational Research Data from its Phase 1b Study of GEN-1 Immunotherapy in Recurrent Ovarian Cancer
PR Newswire - Thu Jan 07, 7:00AM CST
Celsion Corporation (NASDAQ: CLSN), today announced new translational data from its Phase 1b study of GEN-1 in patients with platinum-resistant ovarian cancer. GEN-1 is an IL-12 DNA plasmid vector encased in a nanoparticle delivery system, which enables cell transfection followed by persistent, local secretion of the IL-12 protein. The new data demonstrate that intraperitoneally-administered GEN-1 produces an immunologically distinct IL-12 protein that is localized at the tumor site and lasts for up to one week after a single treatment. Furthermore, concomitant increases in IFN- and TNF- a indicate that the IL-12 produced following treatment with GEN-1 treatment is immunologically active. Celsion Corporation is a fully integrated oncology company focused on the development of a portfolio of innovative cancer treatments, including directed chemotherapies, immunotherapies and RNA- or DNA-based therapies for the treatment of cancer and other difficult-to-treat diseases.
