Update: On track for anti-tumour vaccine trial in H215

Imugene is on track to initiate a Phase Ib/II trial of its gastric (stomach) cancer therapeutic vaccine, HER-Vaxx, in H215. HER-Vaxx aims to replicate and improve on the combination of two proven therapeutic antibodies, Herceptin and Perjeta (Roche), which significantly improves survival in breast cancer and may do so in gastric cancer. Global gastric cancer incidence is 934,000 cases with few current therapeutic options and low survival. Imugene raised A$3.6m in H214, which gives it sufficient funds to initiate the Phase Ib/II trial, with the aim of gaining a major pharma deal following Phase II data in the buoyant cancer immunotherapy area.
