ALX Oncology: ALX148 Shows ORR of 72% In Patients With HER2 Positive Stomach Cancer

 

  • ALX Oncology Holdings Inc (NASDAQ: ALXOannounced updated data from its ongoing ASPEN-01 Phase 1b trial evaluating ALX148 in combination with trastuzumab and chemotherapy to treat gastric or gastroesophageal junction cancer (GC).

  • The new data were shared at the World Congress on Gastrointestinal Cancer.

  • Data showed that ALX148, combined with trastuzumab and chemotherapy, is highly active and well-tolerated in patients with second-line or greater HER2 positive GC.

  • As of the data cut-off of May 3, 2021, ALX148 demonstrated a favorable initial confirmed objective response rate (ORR) of 72% and estimated overall survival (OS) at 12 months of 76%.

  • These results compare favorably to randomized historical control studies; RAINBOW reported an ORR of 28% and OS at 12 months of 40%, and DESTINY-01 reported an ORR of 41% and OS at 12 months of 52%.

  • Preliminary data suggest that ALX148 can be combined with trastuzumab, ramucirumab, and paclitaxel with no maximum tolerated dose reached.

  • The maximum administered dose of ALX148 in combination was 15 mg/kg once weekly.

  • ALX Oncology hosted a conference call today at 8:30 a.m. E.T.
