Item 8.01. Other Events.
On September 12, 2022, a poster entitled “A Phase I Study to Evaluate the Safety, Tolerability, and Efficacy of VCN-01 in Combination with Durvalumab (MEDI4736) in Subjects with Recurrent/ Metastatic Squamous Cell Carcinoma of the Head and Neck (R/M HNSCC)” was presented at the European Society for Medical Oncology (ESMO) Congress in Paris by Dr. Ricard Mesia, Head of the Medical Oncology Department at Institut Català d'Oncologia (Barcelona, Spain). A copy of the Poster Presentation is filed as Exhibit 99.1.
Key data and conclusions featured in the Poster Presentation include:
· | Safety: Treatment with VCN-01 had an acceptable safety profile when administered with durvalumab in the sequential regimen (single dose of VCN-01 administered 14 days prior to the first dose of durvalumab; n=14). |
o | The most common treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs) were pyrexia, flu-like symptoms and increases in liver transaminases. |
o | TRAEs were dose-dependent, reversible and consistent with TRAEs previously described for other adenovirus-based products. |
· | Pharmacokinetics (PK) and pharmacodynamics (PD): Based on toxicology and PK/PD analysis the recommended Phase 2 dose is 1x1013 viral particles (vp)/patient. |
· | Biological activity: Sustained blood levels of VCN-01 viral genomes and increased serum hyaluronidase levels were maintained for over six weeks. |
o | Observed an increase in CD8 T cells, a marker of tumor inflammation and an upregulation of PD-L1 in tumors. |
o | Analysis of serial tumor biopsies revealed differential gene expression profiles and downregulation of matrix-related pathways after VCN-01 administration. |
