Endocyte has positive Phase 2 prostate cancer data at ASCO

Endocyte announced that a poster with data from the Peter MacCallum Cancer Centre will be presented on Endocyte’s lead investigational therapy at the 2018 ASCO Annual Meeting on Saturday, June 2, 2018. Updated data from the phase 2 study of 177Lu-PSMA-617 as a potential treatment for metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer, including data from an additional 20 patient expansion cohort, will be highlighted by the poster. “We are very pleased that we continue to see high rates of PSA response, even in heavily pre-treated patients,” said Mike Sherman, president and CEO of Endocyte. “In the 50 patients receiving 177Lu-PSMA-617, 62% had a greater than 50% reduction in their PSA levels. Further, 44% of patients had a PSA reduction of 80% or greater. We look forward to sharing more information on this phase 2 trial at ASCO.”
