CureVac’s CVGBM Cancer Vaccine Induces Promising Immune Responses in Phase 1 Study
in Glioblastoma Presented at the ESMO 2024 Congress
 

• Preliminary immunogenicity results demonstrate induction of cancer antigen-specific T-cell responses in 77% of evaluable patients following CVGBM monotherapy
• 84% of immune responses were de novo, observed in patients without pre-existing
  T-cell activity against encoded cancer antigens
• CVGBM was generally well tolerated up to the highest tested dose level of 100 µg with no dose-limiting toxicities
• Most common adverse events were mild to moderate systemic reactions such as headache, fever and chills, which resolved within 1–2 days post injection
• 100 µg was selected as the recommended dose for the dose expansion phase, which recently started enrollment

TÜBINGEN, Germany/BOSTON, USA – September 13, 2024 – CureVac N.V. (Nasdaq: CVAC) (“CureVac”), a global biopharmaceutical company developing a new class of transformative medicines based on messenger ribonucleic acid (“mRNA”), today presented compelling data from the dose-escalation Part A of its ongoing Phase 1 CVGBM cancer vaccine study in patients with glioblastoma at the European Society for Medical Oncology (ESMO) Congress. The presented data include safety, tolerability and initial immunogenicity data provided for all evaluable patients treated within Part A of the trial with CVGBM dose levels of 12-100 µg. The presentation can be reviewed here.

In this highly aggressive and challenging cancer indication, preliminary immunogenicity results demonstrate that treatment with CVGBM-only following chemo-radiation therapy successfully induces cancer antigen-specific T-cell responses in 77% of evaluable patients. Most notably, within the group of responding patients, 84% of immune responses were generated de novo by the CVGBM vaccination, inducing T-cell activity in patients who had no pre-existing T-cell activity against the encoded antigens. While CD8⁺ T-cells primarily attack and destroy cancer cells, CD4⁺ T-cells play a critical role in coordinating the immune response and supporting the activity of CD8⁺ T-cells over time. The majority of responding patients (69%) showed cancer antigen-specific CD8⁺ responses, 31% of responding patients had CD4⁺ responses and 23% had both a CD8⁺ and a CD4⁺ response.

“These early data are encouraging. Most importantly, the strong de novo T-cell responses seen in a significant number of patients reflect the vaccine’s ability to break through immune tolerance to the tumor and generate a new immune response,” said Prof. Dr. Dr. Ghazaleh Tabatabai, Chair, Department of Neurology & Interdisciplinary Neuro-Oncology, University Hospital Tübingen and Hertie Institute for Clinical Brain Research. “The CVGBM safety profile is acceptable, and we are eager to see these results further validated in the next phase of the study. This could mark an important moment in the fight against this devastating disease.”

CureVac’s Chief Scientific Officer, Dr. Myriam Mendila, added: “These first-in-human data highlight for the first time the broader potential of our second-generation mRNA backbone in cancer immunotherapy. The ability of CVGBM to elicit both CD8⁺ and CD4⁺ de novo T-cell responses suggests that the vaccine is enhancing the immune system’s capacity for a coordinated defense against the cancer. As we conduct the next phase of the trial, we are building a strong foundation for future shared antigen as well as personalized cancer vaccines across different tumor types that could offer significant benefits to patients.”

Immune activation was accompanied by a favorable safety and tolerability profile, with no dose-limiting toxicities observed up to and including the highest tested dose of 100 µg, as confirmed by an independent Data and Safety Monitoring Board. The majority of treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs) were reported as grade 1 (mild) and grade 2 (moderate) systemic reactions characteristic to mRNA-based therapeutics. These included headache, chills, fever and fatigue, which resolved within 1-2 days following the injection. Seven patients reported a total of nine grade 3 (severe) TRAEs, of which four were classified as serious adverse events (SAEs). No grade 4 or 5 adverse events occurred. Correspondingly, a 100 µg dose was selected as the recommended dose for the already initiated dose-confirmation Part B of the study.

The open-label study is evaluating the safety and tolerability of CVGBM in HLA-*02:01-positive patients with newly diagnosed and surgically resected MGMT-unmethylated glioblastoma or astrocytoma with a molecular signature of glioblastoma. CVGBM replaces the temozolomide maintenance phase. It is administered as a monotherapy after surgical resection and completion of radiotherapy with or without chemotherapy. The study consists of two parts, a dose-escalation part (Part A) and a dose-expansion part (Part B). In the fully enrolled Part A, patients received seven intramuscular vaccinations at escalating doses in the range of 12 to 100 µg on days 1, 8, 15, 29, 43, 57 and 71 and optional maintenance vaccinations in case of non-progression or potential benefit. 16 patients were enrolled, of which 13 were evaluable for immune responses. All patients completed surgery, 44% with complete tumor resection and 56% with only partial resection followed by chemo-radiation with temozolomide. Antigen-specific CD4⁺ and CD8⁺ T-cell responses were assessed at relevant pre-determined timepoints until day 99. Part B of the study is currently ongoing at the recommended dose of 100 µg.

More information can be found at clinicaltrials.gov (NCT05938387).

MEDIA RELEASE

Medacta Introduces a Simplified Approach for the M-ARS ACL Technique at the AGA Congress 2024, Mimicking the Native Ligament Footprint with an Optimized Surgical Flow

CASTEL SAN PIETRO, September 12, 2024 – Medacta Group SA (“Medacta,” SIX:MOVE), announces the introduction of a simplified approach for its M-ARS (Medacta – Anatomic Ribbon Surgery) ACL (Anterior Cruciate Ligament) technique at the AGA Congress 2024 in Zürich, Switzerland. The M-ARS technique offers a more natural approach to ACL reconstruction than traditional round-graft-tunnel single-bundle techniques. It is designed to optimize knee biomechanics and enhance graft healing following ACL reconstruction, mimicking the native footprint by using a flat graft to enhance stress distribution and biological healing at the insertion site, potentially improving patient outcomes in terms of recovery time and return to an active lifestyle.

“Medacta’s new simplified approach for M-ARS ACL offers multiple advantages: it streamlines the creation of flat graft tunnels, making the surgical procedure more efficient and easier to perform, and it preserves the M-ARS philosophy of natural ACL reconstruction,” explains Prof. Dr. Fink, Austria.

“I prefer the simplified approach for the M-ARS ACL Reconstruction system in combination with the MectaQTH minimally invasive quad-tendon harvesting system. This provides me with a wide range of devices to perform personalized primary and revision ACL reconstruction, as well as multi-ligament reconstruction,” says Prof. Dr. Herbort, Germany.

Medacta’s Sports Medicine knee platform offers surgeons a comprehensive range of surgical approaches to improve personalized medicine for primary, revision, and multi-ligament reconstruction. The platform includes innovative devices, techniques, and education programs to support surgeons in achieving optimal patient outcomes.

Medacta’s M.O.R.E. Medical education program provides surgeons easy access to globally renowned reference centers and wet lab training. This program helps to accelerate the transition to arthroscopic natural anatomy knee reconstruction with the Sports Medicine knee platform.

Press Release 

Pentixapharm Holding AG, a Subsidiary of Eckert & Ziegler SE, Plans IPO on the Prime Standard of the Frankfurt Stock Exchange

• Business model focused on innovative radiopharmaceuticals for the diagnosis and therapy (“theranostics”) of various indications
• Institutional environment characterized by high market growth and intense M&A activity
• IPO as a strategic step to secure short- and long-term financing
• Lead candidate PentixaFor already in Phase III
• Commercial rights to over 20 investigator-initiated studies (IIS) for accelerated pipeline development

Berlin and Würzburg, Germany, September 12, 2024 – Pentixapharm Holding AG (“Pentixapharm”) is planning a public offering of new shares as part of its spin-off from Eckert & Ziegler SE, with the goal of listing on the Regulated Market (Prime Standard) of the Frankfurt Stock Exchange in the fourth quarter of 2024. The offering will primarily target institutional investors but will also be open to retail investors.

Pentixapharm focuses on the development of radiopharmaceuticals for various therapeutic areas. For some of the indications, Pentixapharm’s development candidates would represent first-in-class radiopharmaceuticals. This includes radiotherapeutics against multiple forms of blood cancer. Pentixapharm here aims to confirm and replicate, in controlled clinical trials, the promising results of a first small study with its lead candidate PentixaTher in patients with hard-to-treat T-cell lymphomas that had previously not responded to standard therapies reported in 2022 by the University of Würzburg.

In addition, Pentixapharm plans to initiate a Phase III registration trial in the United States for its most advanced development candidate, PentixaFor, in the indication of primary aldosteronism (PA). In a recent pre-submission (Type-C) meeting, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) indicated that key pre-conditions for a phase III trial have been met. PA, a significant cause of hypertension, remains difficult to diagnose and treat effectively with current methods.

The medical significance and economic potential of radiopharmaceutical therapies are underscored by several international M&A transactions in the last 12 months, totaling around USD 8 billion. Through its planned IPO, Pentixapharm aims to strategically position itself in this growing market, expand its financial resources for continued pipeline development in the short term, and secure long-term capital access. The IPO will be led by BankM AG, acting as Bookrunner and Lead Manager.

Dr. Andreas Eckert, Chairman of the Supervisory Board of Pentixapharm Holding AG: “We are pursuing a highly promising, differentiated, and well-validated approach with Pentixapharm in the rapidly growing international radiopharmaceutical market. With our extensive experience and network, we are in an excellent position to quickly deliver a broad pipeline of diagnostic and therapeutic solutions, not only for cancer but also for other indications. The planned IPO is a significant milestone on our path toward the commercial use of our diagnostic and therapeutic programs.”

Clear focus on well-researched targets, lead program in Phase III clinical development

At the core of Pentixapharm’s operations are the exclusive global rights to a patent family developed by the University of Munich, centered around radioisotope-labeled ligands targeting the cell membrane receptor CXCR4. This protein plays a critical role in tumor growth, metastatic spread, and the development of inflammatory processes.

Dr. Hakim Bouterfa, CEO of Pentixapharm Holding AG: “The theranostic approach allows us to detect, treat, and precisely monitor disease progression and response to therapy. The specific binding of the ligand to the pathological surface structure of the target cell is identical for both diagnosis and therapy, enabling a targeted treatment according to the principle of ‘find, fight, and follow’. The choice of radioisotope then determines the outcome: high-energy isotopes are used to destroy targeted cells, while lower-energy isotopes are employed for imaging purposes.”

Pentixapharm’s clinical pipeline encompasses PentixaTher, an Yttrium-90 based therapeutic against non-Hodgkin lymphomas (NHL), and PentixaFor, a Gallium-68-based companion diagnostic. Clinical studies for both compounds have already commenced in Europe, including a dose-finding study for PentixaTher and a Phase III registration study for PentixaFor in marginal zone lymphoma. Additionally, PentixaFor is being developed as a diagnostic tool for primary aldosteronism (PA), a significant cause of hypertension. Pentixapharm is currently preparing a US-centric Phase III registration study with PentixaFor in PA that is expected to start in 2025.

Unique network and extensive data pool for accelerated pipeline development

Leveraging the longstanding experience of Eckert & Ziegler, one of the world’s largest providers of isotope technology for medical, scientific, and industrial applications, Pentixapharm, as a former subsidiary, benefits from outstanding expertise and a broad network in the field of radiopharmaceuticals. Currently, Pentixapharm can access data from over 20 academic partners who have investigated the potential of the CXCR4 cell membrane receptor in developing radiopharmaceuticals through investigator-initiated studies (IIS).

The spin-off of Pentixapharm, approved by Eckert & Ziegler SE’s Annual General Meeting on June 26, 2024, is based on the distinct business focuses of the two companies. While Eckert & Ziegler’s core business revolves around the production and distribution of radioisotopes, Pentixapharm is dedicated to the development and approval of new radiopharmaceuticals. The planned IPO enables Pentixapharm to target investors specifically interested in the company’s innovative and forward-looking pipeline. As an independent company, Pentixapharm can now operate more flexibly to advance its research and development projects.

About Pentixapharm Holding AG

Pentixapharm Holding AG was founded in 2024 to incorporate all shares held by Eckert & Ziegler SE in Pentixapharm AG, based in Würzburg, Germany, following the spin-off resolved by the Annual General Meetings of Eckert & Ziegler SE and Pentixapharm Holding AG on June 26, 2024. It is intended to list Pentixapharm Holding AG in the Regulated Market (Prime Standard) of the Frankfurt Stock Exchange.

Pentixapharm AG is a clinical-stage radiopharmaceutical development company founded in 2019. It is committed to developing CXCR4 ligand-based first-in-class radiopharmaceutical approaches for diagnostic and therapeutic programs in a number of hematological and solid cancers, as well as cardiovascular, endocrine and inflammatory diseases.

CureVac Partner GSK Announces Positive Phase 2 Data from Seasonal Influenza
mRNA Vaccine Program
 

• Phase 2 data demonstrated positive immune responses to A and B strains, with acceptable safety and reactogenicity profile, meeting all pre-defined study endpoints 
• Vaccine candidate based on CureVac’s proprietary second-generation mRNA backbone
• GSK confirmed data support advancing program to Phase 3; dosing of first Phase 3 participant is associated with a significant milestone payment for CureVac
• In July 2024, GSK assumed full control for the development, manufacturing and commercialization of influenza vaccines through new licensing agreement

TÜBINGEN, Germany/BOSTON, USA – September 12, 2024 – CureVac N.V. (Nasdaq: CVAC) (“CureVac”), a global biopharmaceutical company developing a new class of transformative medicines based on messenger ribonucleic acid (“mRNA”), today announced that GSK has reported positive Phase 2 headline data from the seasonal influenza mRNA vaccine program. The program was fully licensed to GSK under the terms of a licensing agreement announced on July 3, 2024.

According to GSK, the data demonstrated positive immune responses against influenza A and B strains compared to the current standard of care, meeting all predefined success criteria in the tested age groups of older and younger adults. The interim data further suggests the tested vaccine candidate has an acceptable safety and reactogenicity profile. The vaccine candidate is based on CureVac’s second-generation mRNA backbone.

“The positive Phase 2 results once again highlight the immense potential of our second-generation mRNA backbone to develop best in class vaccines against influenza and other infectious diseases,” said Dr. Myriam Mendila, Chief Scientific Officer of CureVac. “We are strongly encouraged by a positive response against influenza A strains but particularly excited about adequate immune responses against influenza B. We look forward to seeing advanced data from the study and potential transition of the program to Phase 3, which would be associated with a significant milestone payment for CureVac.”

The Phase 2 study was initiated following interim data reported on April 4, 2024, from the Phase 2 part of the ongoing combined Phase 1/2 study in seasonal influenza. It assesses the reactogenicity, safety, and immunogenicity of different dose levels of a modified, multivalent vaccine candidate, encoding antigens matched to all three WHO-recommended flu strains. The study includes 250 healthy younger adults aged 18 to 64 and 250 healthy older adults aged 65 to 85. In each age group, different dose levels will be tested in comparison to an age-appropriate, licensed comparator vaccine.

Marinomed Biotech AG: First Carragelose products receive new Medical Device Regulation (MDR) certification

• Two Carragelose nasal sprays have received declaration of conformity under the new medical device regulation – certificates for further products expected later in the year
• Extensive clinical data for Carragelose facilitates challenging demands for MDR transition
• MDR-compliance is a major asset for medical devices and adds significant value to Carragelose portfolio
• Evaluation process regarding strategic options for the Carragelose business ongoing; due diligence phase continuing but no agreements made to date

Korneuburg, Austria, 11. September 2024 – Marinomed Biotech AG (VSE:MARI) has received the certificates for the first two Carragelose products under the new medical device regulation (MDR). The European Union (EU) implemented the new medical device regulation in May 2021, replacing the previously valid medical device directive (MDD) and increasing scrutiny on medical device safety throughout the full product lifecycle. The MDR sets new EU-wide standards regarding the requirements for safety, performance, quality of clinical data and overall technical documentation for medical devices. Compliance with the new MDR is the prerequisite for the marketing of medical devices in the EU after the end of the transition period in 2028.

The declaration of conformity for the first Carragelose products represents a major milestone for the whole portfolio and creates a promising foundation for the certification of the other Carragelose products. Furthermore, successful MDR transition adds significant value to the Carragelose asset. As announced mid-December 2023, the Company commenced an evaluation process regarding strategic options for the Carragelose business area. Without any relevant interim step having occurred, the Company updates the market that potential buyers are still in the process of conducting due diligence. To date, no binding agreements have been concluded. In this process, Marinomed aims for a decision to be made and announced by the end of the year.

Eva Prieschl-Grassauer, CSO of Marinomed, comments: “MDR-transition and the associated necessary documentation is very demanding. However, thanks to the excellent work of our regulatory affairs team and the extensive clinical data that we have generated for Carragelose over the years, we are able to meet the new requirements. The issuing of these certificates is further confirmation of the quality, safety and appropriate technical documentation of our Carragelose products and increases the value of this asset, also for a potential strategic partner. We are proud to have received the first certificates well before the end of the transition period in 2028. We are confident that the other products will also be certified under the new MDR and will therefore continue to be approved for marketing and distribution in the EU.”
