Immutep reports encouraging preliminary data on lead drug

Immutep Limited (NASDAQ:IMMP) jumps 36% premarket on average volume in reaction to preliminary results from a Frankfurt, Germany-based Phase 1 clinical trial evaluating the combination of lead candidate eftilagimod alpha and Pfizer (NYSE:PFE) and Merck KGaA’s (OTCPK:MKGAY) PD-L1 inhibitor avelumab in 12 heavily pretreated patients with solid tumors, primarily gastrointestinal cancers. The data were virtually presented at ASCO.
At data cutoff, the response rate was 33% (n=4/12), all partials, while one patient showed stable cancer, implying a disease control rate of 42% (n=5/12). Four patients progressed and three have yet to be assessed.
On the safety front, the combo was well-tolerated with no dose-limiting toxicities.
