Genprex (NASDAQ: GNPX) is conducting its Phase 1/2 Acclaim-1 clinical trial evaluating the safety and efficacy of combining REQORSA(R), the company’s innovative drug candidate, in combination with Tagrisso(R) in patients with advanced EGFR mutant non-small cell lung cancer (“NSCLC”) who have experienced disease progression after previous treatments. “REQORSA Immunogene Therapy represents a potentially groundbreaking experimental drug that harnesses the power of genetic medicine to combat NSCLC,” a recent article explains. “During the Phase 1 portion of the clinical trial, the primary emphasis is on evaluating the safety of the treatment.
However, the findings also have revealed promising efficacy results. One patient previously treated with standard-of-care therapies such as osimertinib had a partial remission (‘PR’) by investigator evaluation and treatment is ongoing after 16 cycles, which is approximately 10.5 months. Another patient previously treated with osimertinib has stable disease and treatment is ongoing after 14 cycles, or approximately 9 months. The extended and ongoing progression free survival (‘PFS’) of each of these patients is significantly greater than the median PFS observed from treatment with osimertinib alone in this treatment setting in several prior clinical trials and is consistent with long-term PFS seen in prior clinical trials of REQORSA. These findings underscore the potential of REQORSA in reshaping the landscape of non-small cell lung cancer.”
