Imugene Limited Initiates Phase 1 onCARlytics CD19 Virus Clinical Trial.

Oct 26, 2023

Imugene Limited (ASX: IMU), a pioneer in immuno-oncology, has marked a significant milestone as it initiates the Phase 1 clinical trial for onCARlytics, their CD19 oncolytic virotherapy candidate. This groundbreaking trial, known as OASIS, is the first of its kind, combining a CD19 oncolytic virus with a CD19 drug. The trial targets patients with solid tumors, specifically focusing on those with advanced or metastatic solid tumors.

OnCARlytics, when combined with the CD19-targeting bispecific monoclonal antibody blinatumomab (Amgen's Blincyto®), has the potential to revolutionize the treatment of solid tumors that were previously untreatable with Blincyto® alone. The study involves assessing the safety and efficacy of two administration routes: intratumoral (IT) injection and intravenous (IV) infusion, both as standalone treatments and in conjunction with blinatumomab. This Phase 1 trial is being conducted in the United States and represents a pivotal step in the field of immuno-oncology. The initial dosing of the first patient, who has ovarian cancer, took place at the renowned City of Hope's NCI-Designated Comprehensive Cancer Center in Duarte, California, USA.
