Tempo Therapeutics Announces First Patient Dosed in Clinical Trial of TT101 For Tissue Repair in Skin Cancer Surgery

On September 5, 2024 Tempo Therapeutics, Inc. ("Tempo"), a leading innovator in tissue engineering and regenerative medicine, reported the dosing of the first patients in a clinical trial of TT101 (the MOSAIC Trial), the company’s lead pipeline candidate for tissue regeneration based on its proprietary MAP technology (Press release, Tempo Therapeutics, SEP 5, 2024, View Source [SID1234646384]). TT101 is a first-in-class, flowable and integrative scaffold that has demonstrated non-immunogenic and regenerative tissue responses in large animal studies of soft tissue repair. Based on these compelling preclinical data, TT101 is now being tested in humans to evaluate safety and gather additional information on its ability to potentially regrow large volumes of surgically removed tissue while allowing patients to avoid the formation of disfiguring scars that currently require further intervention.

"Enrolling patients in this first clinical trial is a significant milestone for Tempo representing many years of hard work and innovation in bringing the MAP technology from the bench to the bedside," said Westbrook Weaver, PhD, Tempo’s Chief Executive Officer and company co-founder. "I am immensely proud of our great team of scientists, engineers, and physicians at Tempo, as well as our investors and partners that have all come together to bring this first-in-class technology to human trials for the first time."

The open label, randomized, first-in-human trial is evaluating the safety of TT101 when applied to acute surgical oncology resection sites in the skin after the resection of Basal Cell Carcinomas (BCC) or Squamous Cell Carcinomas (SCC), frequently addressed with Mohs surgery. BCCs and SCCs affect over 5 million patients every year in the United States alone. A significant number of these patients require surgical resection that exposes bone, muscle, or fascia. The recovery of these surgical sites is challenging, costly, and requires continued intervention that can interfere with secondary cancer therapy and negatively affect patient outcomes, especially in those patients also undergoing immunosuppressive treatments or in an immunocompromised state. The Company believes that TT101 and MAP technology have the potential to revolutionize treatment outcomes for surgical oncology patients with complex surgical sites, addressing a large unmet medical need for rapid tissue healing in complex surgical sites.

About MAP Technology:

The Microporous Annealed Particle (MAP) technology is a first-in-class volumetric flowable porous scaffolding for regenerative medicine. The MAP technology enables Tempo to repurpose established hydrogel polymer components with strong safety profiles by assembling them into a hyper-porous, flowable scaffold format. MAP-based products immediately allow tissue ingrowth and integration upon application. Tissue implants using MAP technology are able to evade the typical inflammatory and scar-forming Foreign Body Response (FBR) and instead promote a regenerative immune response that leads to accelerated formation of vascularized tissue volume. Unlike normal biology and current available products, MAP drives tissue reformation without requiring patient inflammation, unlocking new biological pathways for building tissue inside patients without delivering cells or biologic therapy.

BioVaxys to Present New Data on its DPX Immune Educating Platform at Personalized Cancer Vaccine Summit

On September 4, 2024 BioVaxys Technology Corp. (CSE: BIOV) (FRA: 5LB) (OTCQB: BVAXF) ("BioVaxys" or the Company") reported that it has been invited to present "A Novel Delivery System for Personalized Peptide & mRNA Vaccines for More Targeted Therapies" at The Personalized Cancer Vaccine Summit (formerly known as the mRNA Cancer Vaccine Summit) to be held December 3-5, 2024, in Boston, MA (Press release, BioVaxys Technology, SEP 4, 2024, View Source [SID1234646353]).

The 3-day program brings together top industry players developing individualized approaches in mRNA, DNA, peptide, viral, dendritic cells, and optimizing personalized cancer vaccine approaches with immune-checkpoint inhibitor combinations to combat multiple tumor specific pathways and minimize off-target effects. In addition to BioVaxys, other companies and organizations invited to present include BioNTec, CureVac, ImVax, The Mayo Clinic, and NEC Biotherapeutics.

BioVaxys Chief Medical Officer David Berd, MD, will present new data from recent in vivo studies of DPX conducted by Pramrod K. Srivastava, Ph.D., M.D., Professor, Department of Immunology, Director, Center for Immunotherapy of Cancer (SITC) (Free SITC Whitepaper) and Infectious Diseases and the Carole and Ray Neag Comprehensive Cancer Center at UConn Health, University of Connecticut, and Hakimeh Ebrahimi-Nik, DVM, Ph.D., Assistant Professor, Medical Oncology, The Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center.

BioVaxys President and Chief Operating Officer Kenneth Kovan stated, "We will be withholding detailed disclosure on potential new therapeutic roles for DPX and neoepitopes until the conference, but suffice to say, the data suggests DPX has a significant role in the delivery of tumor neoepitope vaccines that induce tumor rejection, and DPX on its own appears to have an anti-tumor capacity."

BioVaxys is advancing additional studies with Dr. Nik and her research team on DPX delivering tumor neoepitope vaccines that induce tumor rejection, and DPX anti-tumor capacity.

EpimAb Biotherapeutics and Vignette Bio Announce Strategic Collaboration to Develop EMB-06, a BCMA×CD3 Bispecific Antibody

On September 4, 2024 – EpimAb Biotherapeutics, Inc. ("EpimAb" or "EpimAb Biotherapeutics") a clinical stage biopharmaceutical company specializing in the discovery and development of multi-specific antibodies for diseases with high unmet need, and Vignette Bio, Inc. ("Vignette" or "Vignette Bio") a clinical stage company incubated by Foresite Labs and backed by Foresite Capital, Qiming Venture Partners USA, Samsara BioCapital, and Mirae Asset Capital Life Science, announced today that EpimAb and Vignette have entered into a license agreement for EpimAb’s BCMA-targeting T-cell engager (TCE) EMB-06 (Press release, EpimAb Biotherapeutics, SEP 4, 2024, View Source [SID1234648258]).

Under this agreement, EpimAb will grant Vignette the exclusive rights to develop and commercialize EMB-06 outside of Greater China (mainland China, Hong Kong, Macau and Taiwan), while EpimAb shall retain the rights to EMB-06 in Greater China. EpimAb will receive total upfront considerations of $60 million in cash and equity of Vignette, and will be eligible to receive up to $575 million development, regulatory and commercial milestones, plus royalties on net sales.

"EpimAb is excited to enter into this partnership with Vignette on EMB-06, which is well positioned to realize the potential of EMB-06," said Dr. Chengbin Wu, CEO and founder of EpimAb. "EMB-06 is the first candidate developed with our proprietary T-cell engager platform and has shown promising clinical activity when evaluated in patients with multiple myeloma. We look forward to evaluating the potential of EMB-06 in autoimmune diseases."

"Emerging clinical data using B-cell depletion in autoimmune diseases has shown compelling results," said Michael Rome, managing director at Foresite Capital and lead investor of Vignette. "EMB-06 is a promising clinical asset and we look forward to building a leading company focused on T-cell engagers for autoimmune diseases."

EMB-06 is the first TCE developed within EpimAb’s T-cell engager platform, which combines EpimAb’s proprietary FIT-Ig bispecific platform and CD3 binder panel, and EpimAb’s in-house discovery and antibody engineering expertise. This allows EpimAb to quickly generate and screen a suite of engagers in the discovery stage for diseases of interest, and advance TCE candidates that could provide the optimal efficacy and safety profile into the pre-IND and clinical stages.
