MANNHEIM, Germany, Jan. 08, 2024 — Affimed N.V. (Nasdaq: AFMD) (“Affimed” or the “Company”), a clinical-stage immuno-oncology company committed to giving patients back their innate ability to fight cancer, today provided an update on the clinical response data for the ongoing AFM24-102 phase 1/2a study in EGFRwt NSCLC.
As of January 4, 2024, updated information on the 4 responses in the 15 patients treated in the EGFRwt NSCLC cohort, now show 1 confirmed complete response (CR), 2 confirmed partial responses (PR) and 1 unconfirmed PR awaiting confirmation. Initial data as presented on December 11, 2023, showed 1 confirmed PR as well as 1 unconfirmed CR, and 2 unconfirmed PRs. The patients enrolled in the Phase 1/2a AFM24-102 in the EGFRwt NSCLC cohort of the trial previously had a median of 2 prior lines of therapy, were heavily pretreated, and all patients had progressed on PD-[L]1 targeted therapy.
Based on the promising response data from the EGFRwt NSCLC cohort, Affimed will expand enrollment to 40 patients. Additionally, the Company reported that enrollment of the EGFRmut NSCLC cohort is ongoing. Data from both cohorts are expected in H1 2024.
“We are encouraged by the responses in these patients who had all progressed on PD1 targeting therapy and made the strategic decision to expand this patient cohort,” said Dr. Andreas Harstrick, CMO and interim Chief Executive Officer of Affimed. “There is a significant unmet need for these patients who have exhausted all previous lines of therapy and did not respond to any therapies, including PD-1/PD-L1 treatment. We look forward to sharing more updates in the first half of 2024.”... Affimed's Press Release -
