About MRx0518

MRx0518 is single strain Live Biotherapeutic product in development for the treatment of cancer. It is delivered as an oral capsule and stimulates the body’s immune system, directing it to produce cytokines and immune cells that are known to attack tumors. It is currently being evaluated in three clinical trials in cancer patients. MRx0518-I-001 is a neoadjuvant monotherapy study in a variety of solid tumors and is being conducted at Imperial College (London, UK). MRx0518-I-002 is in combination with KEYTRUDA (pembrolizumab) in patients who have previously progressed on anti PD-1 therapies. The Coordinating Investigator of the study is at The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center, Houston, USA, with multiple additional sites in the US. The study is being conducted in collaboration with MSD, the tradename of Merck & Co., Inc., Kenilworth, NJ, USA. MRx0518-I-003 is in combination with preoperative radiotherapy in resectable pancreatic cancer. A fourth clinical trial, in collaboration with Merck KGaA and Pfizer Inc., of BAVENCIO (avelumab) in combination with MRx0518 as a first-line maintenance therapy for patients with locally advanced or metastatic urothelial carcinoma that has not progressed with first-line platinum-containing chemotherapy, is expected to commence in Q4 2021.

Micronoma’s microbiome-driven liquid biopsy method uses machine learning to examine thousands of microbiome plasma features to discover, validate, and translate microbial-derived biomarkers into an early cancer detection method. The award from Bio-IT World recognizes that this process is designed to improve the chances of survival of cancer patients by discovering the disease in its earliest stages, including at stage I of the disease, when tumor size is still at its smallest.

"We are honored to receive the Bio-IT World Innovative Practices Award and to be in such great company with our fellow awardees," said Sandrine Miller-Montgomery, CEO of Micronoma. "This recognition from Bio-IT World adds to an incredible year of discovery and collaboration for Micronoma, and gives even more energy to our team to continue to work hard and fast to save lives."

Bio-IT World explained that the 2021 awards, which recognize work completed during 2020, are particularly noteworthy. "This has been a uniquely demanding season for the industry, but once again the Bio-IT World community has excelled and delivered innovation and solutions to serve both researchers and patients," said Allison Proffitt, Bio-IT World editorial director.

Grand prize awards were granted last week to Micronoma and two other winners including Regeneron Pharmaceuticals and Duke Cancer Institute with University of California, San Francisco. Micronoma will join these highly talented recipients in presenting its innovative work at the 2021 Bio-IT World Conference & Expo in Boston in September. The event will be held both online and in-person.

Sandrine Miller-Montgomery, Micronoma’s CEO, will present Micronoma Behind the Scenes Science and Technology: Using the Microbiome to Detect Early-Stage Cancer during the Genome Informatics track on Tuesday, Sept. 21, 2021.
