About Triple-Negative Breast Cancer

One in eight women in the U.S. will be diagnosed with an invasive breast cancer at some point in their lives. Approximately 10-15% of those diagnoses are TNBC, however TNBC accounts for a disproportionately higher percentage of breast cancer deaths and has a higher rate of recurrence. This form of breast cancer is twice as likely to occur in African-American women, and approximately 70% to 80% of the breast tumors that occur in women with mutations in the BRCA1 genes are triple-negative breast cancer.

About Anixa Bioscience’s Breast Cancer Vaccine

Anixa’s investigational vaccine, currently in Phase 1 trials, takes advantage of endogenously produced proteins that have a function at certain times in life, but then become "retired" and disappear from the body. One such protein is a breast-specific lactation protein, α-lactalbumin, which is no longer found post-lactation in normal, aging tissues, but is present in the majority of triple-negative breast cancers. Activating the immune system against this "retired" protein provides preemptive immune protection against emerging breast tumors that express α-lactalbumin. The vaccine also contains an adjuvant that activates an innate immune response, which allows the immune system to mount a response against emerging tumors to prevent them from growing.

Title: Evaluation of tumor responses and overall survival in patients with recurrent glioblastoma (GBM) from a Phase IIa trial of a CMV vaccine immunotherapeutic candidate (VBI-1901)
Date: Sunday, June 5, 2022
Poster Session/Poster Discussion Session: Central Nervous System Tumors
Poster Session Time: 8:00 AM – 11:00 AM CDT
Poster Discussion Session Time: 11:30 AM – 1:00 PM CDT
About VBI-1901 and GBM

VBI-1901 is a novel cancer vaccine immunotherapeutic candidate developed using VBI’s enveloped virus-like particle (eVLP) technology to target two highly immunogenic cytomegalovirus (CMV) antigens, gB and pp65. Scientific literature suggests CMV infection is prevalent in multiple solid tumors, including glioblastoma (GBM). GBM is among the most common and aggressive malignant primary brain tumors in humans. In the U.S. alone, 12,000 new cases are diagnosed each year. The current standard of care for treating GBM is surgical resection, followed by radiation and chemotherapy. Even with aggressive treatment, GBM progresses rapidly and has a high mortality.

Seagen to Highlight Data from Expanding Oncology Portfolio at 2022 American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) Annual Meeting

On April 28, 2022 Seagen Inc. (Nasdaq:SGEN) reported upcoming presentations of new data from its expanding pipeline of marketed and investigational therapies at the 2022 American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) (Free ASCO Whitepaper) Annual Meeting, to be held June 3-7, 2022 in Chicago (Press release, Seagen, APR 28, 2022, View Source [SID1234613152]). The accepted abstracts demonstrate the growth of Seagen’s portfolio and clinical progress across multiple cancer types, including cervical and urothelial cancers and pediatric and adult Hodgkin lymphoma. Groundbreaking overall survival data for Stage III/IV Hodgkin lymphoma patients who were treated with ADCETRIS (brentuximab vedotin) as part of a first-line therapy combination will be detailed in one of three oral presentations for the antibody-drug conjugate medicine.

Other important data include interim results from the dose-expansion cohorts of the innovaTV 205 trial of TIVDAK (tisotumab vedotin-tftv) in combination with other anticancer agents in patients with recurrent metastatic cervical cancer, which will also be featured in an oral presentation. Long-term outcomes from the phase 3 EV-301 trial of PADCEV (enfortumab vedotin-ejfv) in patients with previously treated advanced urothelial carcinoma will be shared in a poster discussion.

"Significant improvements in overall and event-free survival are important new findings in adult and pediatric Hodgkin lymphoma patients, respectively," said Roger Dansey, M.D., Chief Medical Officer at Seagen. "We look forward to the presentations and plan to submit supplemental applications to the Food and Drug Administration to update overall survival in the ADCETRIS prescribing information for Hodgkin lymphoma and expand its indication to include children."
