简要总结

The FORTRESS trial (NG-350A-03) is an open-label, single-arm, and multicentre trial of NG-350A in combination with chemoradiotherapy (CRT) in adult patients with locally advanced rectal cancer (LARC) and at least one risk factor for local or distant recurrence.

入选标准

  • Selected Inclusion Criteria:
  • Histologically confirmed adenocarcinoma of the rectum.
  • Locally advanced disease (clinical stage II-III based on pelvic MRI) selected by a multidisciplinary team for treatment with neoadjuvant CRT (which may be followed by CNCT to comprise planned TNT). Patients with oligometastatic disease are permitted provided that the site-specific multidisciplinary team deems them suitable for radical treatment/chemoradiation.
  • Confirmed microsatellite stable (MSS)/proficient mismatch repair (pMMR) status.
  • Provide written informed consent to participate.
  • ECOG Performance Status 0 or
  • Must not be pregnant or breastfeeding.
  • Patients who are sexually active (with either sex) must agree to comply with contraceptive requirements.
  • Adequate lung reserve, renal function, hepatic function, and bone marrow/hematological function assessed ≤ 10 days prior to first dose.

排除标准

  • Recurrent rectal cancer.
  • Distant metastatic disease not amenable to radical treatment/chemoradiation.
  • Other prior malignancy active within the previous 3 years, except for local or organ confined early-stage cancer that has been definitively treated with curative intent, does not require ongoing treatment, has no evidence of residual disease, and has a negligible risk of recurrence and is therefore unlikely to interfere with the primary and secondary endpoints of the trial, including response rate and safety.
  • Splenectomy (patients with prior partial resection remain eligible if the Investigator considers splenic function to not be significantly compromised).
  • Active autoimmune disease that has required systemic therapy in the past 2 years, immunocompromised status in the opinion of the Investigator, or current treatment with systemic immunosuppressive therapy (daily prednisone equivalent for chronic system replacement not to exceed 10mg per day).
  • Infectious or inflammatory bowel disease in the 3 months before the first dose of study treatment.
  • Any clinically significant cardiovascular, peripheral vascular, cerebrovascular, or thromboembolic event in the last 1 month before the first dose of study treatment.
  • Major surgery in the 14 days before the first dose of study treatment or any surgical wounds that are not fully healed and free of infection or dehiscence.
  • Any prior surgery for rectal cancer or pelvic radiotherapy.
  • Any other anti-cancer or experimental therapy within the previous 12 months or that is planned during the active study treatment period.
  • Treatment with any other enadenotucirev-based virus (parent virus or transgene-modified variants), or anti-CD40 antibody at any time.
  • History of prior Grade 3-4 acute kidney injury or other clinically significant renal impairment.
  • Any ongoing Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) Grade ≥2 coagulation abnormality/coagulopathy.

Akamis Bio's NG-350A Shows 50% Response Rate in Locally Advanced Rectal Cancer Phase 1b Trial- Akamis Bio's NG-350A combined with chemoradiotherapy achieved a 50% composite response rate in the first 10 patients with mismatch repair-proficient locally advanced rectal cancer, doubling the expected 25% rate from standard treatment alone. - The Phase 1b FORTRESS study demonstrated no serious adverse events related to NG-350A, with the oncolytic immunotherapy designed to drive intratumoral expression of a CD40 agonist antibody. - Results could enable more patients to pursue organ-preserving "watch-and-wait" protocols instead of life-altering rectal surgery, particularly important as colorectal cancer becomes the leading cause of cancer death in patients under 50. - The encouraging preliminary data provides clinical proof of concept for NG-350A's potential to advance the standard of care for the approximately 30,000 patients diagnosed annually with this condition in the US.6 months agoFDA Grants Fast Track Designation to NG-350A for Mismatch Repair-Proficient Locally Advanced Rectal Cancer- The FDA has granted fast track designation to NG-350A, an oncolytic immunotherapy developed by Akamis Bio, for treating mismatch repair-proficient locally advanced rectal cancer. - NG-350A is designed to drive intratumoral expression of a CD40 agonist monoclonal antibody, activating antigen-presenting cells and recruiting T cells to deliver potent anti-tumor immune responses. - The therapy is being evaluated in the phase 1b FORTRESS trial combining NG-350A with chemoradiotherapy in approximately 30 patients with locally advanced rectal cancer. - Patients with mismatch repair-proficient tumors represent approximately 90% of locally advanced rectal cancer cases, highlighting a significant unmet medical need for new therapeutic approaches.11 months agoAkamis Bio Initiates Phase 1b FORTRESS Trial of NG-350A for Locally Advanced Rectal Cancer- Akamis Bio has enrolled the first patient in its Phase 1b FORTRESS trial evaluating NG-350A in combination with standard chemoradiotherapy for locally advanced rectal cancer. - NG-350A is a systemically administered immunotherapy designed to drive intratumoral expression of CD40 agonist antibodies, potentially enhancing immune response against both primary and metastatic tumors. - The FORTRESS trial builds on promising results from the earlier CEDAR study, which showed significantly higher complete response rates when combining Akamis Bio's immunotherapy with standard chemoradiotherapy.last year
