Immunocore presents Phase 1 data for hepatitis B candidate at AASLD’s The Liver Meeting

Single ascending dose data show IMC-I109V has manageable safety profile and antiviral activity

IMC-I109V is a bispecific T cell receptor targeting a peptide derived from HBsAg that is presented by HLA-A*02:01 on the surface of infected hepatocytes

(OXFORDSHIRE, England & CONSHOHOCKEN, Penn. & GAITHERSBURG, Md., US, November 7, 2025) Immunocore Holdings plc (Nasdaq: IMCR) (“Immunocore” or the “Company”), a commercial-stage biotechnology company pioneering and delivering transformative immunomodulating medicines to radically improve outcomes for patients with cancer, infectious diseases and autoimmune diseases, has today announced data from its Phase 1 trial of IMC-I109V, a TCR bispecific (ENVxCD3) candidate designed to specifically eliminate HBV-infected hepatocytes expressing hepatitis B surface antigen (HBsAg) via T cell redirection.

The data, presented in a poster at The Liver Meeting, organized by the American Association for the Study of Liver Diseases, show that IMC-I109V is generally well tolerated in all evaluated doses and exhibits pharmacodynamic (PD) effects consistent with its mechanism of action, including reduction in HBsAg levels, clearance of which is indicative of resolved hepatitis B infection.

“Dose-dependent decreases in serum HBsAg following a single dose of IMC-I109V are promising and show that a T cell receptor-based approach to treating chronic HBV infection warrants further investigation,” said David Berman, Head of Research and Development. “These data – alongside the encouraging safety profile and antiviral activity seen in our ImmTAV candidate for HIV – reinforce the potential of our platform to achieve functional cures for chronic infectious diseases.”

The trial enrolled 20 participants in sequential cohorts evaluating ascending doses (0.8 mcg; 2.4 mcg; 7 mcg; 20 mcg) of IMC-I109V, given as a single IV infusion on day 1. Each dose was assessed for tolerability and PD activity, defined by either a ≥ 0.2 log10 reduction in serum HBsAg or by predefined increases in alanine aminotransferase (ALT) or serum IL-6 levels. Escalation to the next dose level was permitted for any dose that was deemed tolerable but was associated with PD activity in less than half the participants in a cohort.

Participants were evaluated for safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics (PK) and PD activity up to week 4.

At doses ≥ 7 mcg, consistent PD activity was observed, including a dose-dependent decrease in HBsAg, which typically reached a nadir by day 8. Reductions meeting the predetermined threshold of ≥ 0.2 log10 IU/ml were seen in 4 individuals, 2/6 in the 7 mcg cohort and 2/8 in the 20 mcg cohort. In 3 of these 4 participants, HBsAg remained below pre-dose levels throughout follow-up. Reductions in HBsAg levels coincided with immune activation (IL-6 elevations) and transient elevations in ALT, which were expected based on the mechanism of action.

Treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs) were observed in 8 participants, including transient systemic symptoms (mostly Grade 1-2) in the 24h following infusion. ALT elevations (Grade 1-3), resolved to ≤ Grade 1 within 14 days. Bilirubin and prothrombin values remained within normal ranges throughout the study. The rapid resolution of all TRAEs was consistent with the short serum half-life (< 24h) of IMC-I109V.

One of 8 participants in the 20 mcg cohort developed Grade 2 cytokine release syndrome (fever, transient hypoxia and transient hypotension) within 4 hours of the end of infusion. This event responded rapidly to supportive treatment and corticosteroid therapy, resolving within 4 hours. Although dose-limiting toxicity criteria were not met, this event was classified as a serious adverse event (SAE) due to extension of the hospital stay (<1 day). Subsequently, 2 participants received the 20 mcg dose with corticosteroid premedication as an additional precaution. No SAEs occurred in these individuals.

IMC-I109V is designed to overcome HBV-specific T cell exhaustion by recruiting non-exhausted T cells to eliminate hepatocytes harboring covalently closed circular DNA or integrated HBV DNA.

The Company believes this first-in-human evidence of reductions in HBsAg via this novel mechanism supports further evaluation of IMC-I109V in multiple dose regimens.

Atea Pharmaceuticals Presents New Data Supporting the Fixed-Dose Combination of Bemnifosbuvir and Ruzasvir as a Potential Best-in-Class Regimen for Treatment of Hepatitis C Virus Infection at The Liver Meeting® 2025

Company Hosting Virtual KOL Panel Event Thursday, November 13th at 10:00 AM ET

BOSTON, Nov. 07, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Atea Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Nasdaq: AVIR) (Atea or Company), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company engaged in the discovery and development of oral antiviral therapeutics for serious viral diseases, today announced the presentation of new modeling data predicting that the Company’s combination regimen of bemnifosbuvir (BEM), a nucleotide analog polymerase inhibitor, and ruzasvir (RZR), an NS5A inhibitor, achieved near-complete inhibition of both viral replication and assembly and secretion into the bloodstream, with a modeled time to cure of approximately 7 to 8 weeks. These findings support the fixed-dose combination (FDC) regimen of BEM and RZR as a potential best-in-class, convenient, short-duration treatment of hepatitis C virus (HCV), further validating the Company’s Phase 2 study results, which demonstrated that the combination regimen, after 8 weeks of treatment, achieved sustained virologic response rates at 12 weeks post-treatment (SVR12) of 98% in the per-protocol treatment-adherent patient population and 95% in patients regardless of adherence. These modeling data will be presented at The Liver Meeting® 2025, the annual meeting of the American Association for the Study of Liver Diseases (AASLD), taking place November 7-11 in Washington, DC.

The Company will also present two additional datasets: 1) a resistance analysis from the same Phase 2 study supporting the regimen’s high barrier to resistance and 2) results from a Phase 1 study in healthy participants demonstrating the high relative bioavailability of the BEM/RZR FDC commercial formulation. These data also support dosing of the FDC with or without food or with famotidine (an H2 blocker which can substantially diminish the effectiveness of HCV oral antivirals). The FDC commercial formulation is being used in the ongoing Phase 3 program.

All results being presented underscore the regimen’s potential best-in-class profile to address the needs of today’s broad population of HCV patients. This includes those patients taking concomitant medications, who may need the flexibility of a treatment option that can be taken with or without food, or who present with resistant strains of HCV or advanced liver disease.

“Our goal has always been to develop a best-in-class regimen for HCV that meaningfully advances the standard of care for as many people as possible by addressing the evolving needs of today’s HCV patients,” said Jean-Pierre Sommadossi, PhD, Chief Executive Officer and Founder of Atea Pharmaceuticals. “These new findings reinforce the differentiated profile of our fixed-dose combination regimen of bemnifosbuvir and ruzasvir as a potent, pan-genotypic and convenient regimen with the potential to transform the treatment landscape and bring us closer to eradication of HCV.”

Despite the availability of direct-acting antiviral therapies, HCV remains a significant public healthcare crisis in the US and globally with new diagnoses continuing to outpace cure rates. With a significant portion of the HCV patient population navigating co-infections or taking concomitant medications, an optimized, next-generation treatment option is needed to address their needs and meaningfully advance HCV eradication.

Summary of Results Being Presented at AASLD The Liver Meeting:

Oral Presentation

Abstract Number: 0089
Title: Multiscale Modeling of Results from a Phase 2 Study of an 8-week Combination Regimen of Bemnifosbuvir and Ruzasvir in Patients with Chronic Hepatitis C Virus Infection
Date and Time: Monday, November 10th, 11:30 AM – 11:45 AM ET
Presenting Author: Carolin Zitzmann, PhD
Conclusion: Multiscale modeling data show that Atea’s combination regimen of BEM and RZR inhibits both intracellular replication of HCV, as well as viral assembly and secretion of new HCV into the bloodstream in patients with chronic HCV infection with a modeled time to cure of approximately 7 to 8 weeks. Because the regimen suppresses the virus at multiple critical stages, the data support the potential of the combination regimen as a simplified, short-duration therapy for chronic HCV.

Poster Presentations

Abstract Number1381
Identified as a Poster of Distinction
Title: No Impact of RASs on the High Efficacy of BEM and RZR in Combination: Resistance Analysis from a Phase 2 Study in HCV-Infected Patients
Date and Time: Friday, November 7th, 8:00 AM – 5:00 PM ET
Presenting Author: Qi Huang, PhD
Conclusion: A resistance analysis from the Company’s Phase 2 study of BEM and RZR demonstrated that SVR12 rates were not impacted by resistance associated substitutions (RASs). These data support the regimen’s high barrier to resistance in patients infected with HCV. Viral kinetic and pharmacokinetic analyses indicated that most of the viral failures were due to treatment non-adherence.

Abstract Number: 1398
Title: Bemnifosbuvir and Ruzasvir Provided as a Fixed-dose Combination (FDC) Demonstrates High Relative Bioavailability to Their Individual Formulations and Can Be Dosed with No Regard to Food
Date and Time: Friday, November 7th, 8:00 AM – 5:00 PM ET
Presenting Author: Xiao-Jian Zhou, PhD
Conclusion: Results from a Phase 1 study in healthy participants demonstrated the high relative bioavailability of the BEM and RZR FDC commercial formulation. These results also support dosing of the FDC with or without food or with famotidine (an H2 blocker which can substantially diminish the effectiveness of HCV oral antivirals). The FDC commercial formulation is being used in the ongoing Phase 3 program.

HCV KOL Investor Event at 10:00 AM ET on November 13, 2025

Following The Liver Meeting 2025, Atea will host a virtual event for investors with a panel of leading HCV clinical experts on Thursday, November 13 at 10:00 AM ET. To register, click here.

The panel will include global leaders in hepatology and HCV research and treatment, including:

  • Jordan Feld, MD, MPH – University of Toronto, Toronto General Hospital, Canada
  • Eric Lawitz, MD – Texas Liver Institute, University of Texas Health San Antonio, US
  • Anthony Martinez, MD – University of Buffalo, Erie County Medical Center, US
  • Nancy Reau, MD – Rush University Medical Center, Chicago, US

These experts will discuss the current challenges patients and prescribers face in the diagnosis and treatment of HCV, strategies for advancing global HCV eradication efforts and the potential benefits a next-generation treatment option with an optimized profile could provide for prescribers and HCV patients.

Company management will discuss the HCV commercial market opportunity and provide an update on the ongoing global Phase 3 clinical development program, followed by a live Q&A session.

About the Phase 3 C-BEYOND and C-FORWARD Trials in Adults with Chronic HCV

Atea’s HCV Phase 3 development program includes two open-label Phase 3 trials, C-BEYOND being conducted in the US and Canada, and C-FORWARD being conducted outside of North America. Each Phase 3 trial is enrolling approximately 880 treatment-naïve patients, including those with or without compensated cirrhosis. The trials compare the fixed-dose combination (FDC) regimen of bemnifosbuvir and ruzasvir to the FDC regimen of sofosbuvir and velpatasvir. The regimen of bemnifosbuvir and ruzasvir is administered orally once-daily for eight weeks (in patients without cirrhosis) or 12 weeks (in patients with compensated cirrhosis) while the regimen of sofosbuvir and velpatasvir is administered orally once-daily for 12 weeks to all patients, with or without compensated cirrhosis.

The primary endpoint for each trial is HCV RNA < lower limit of quantitation (LLOQ) at 24 weeks from the start of treatment and encompasses sustained virologic response 12 weeks post-treatment (SVR12) in each arm. Measurement at 24 weeks from the start of treatment is to ensure the primary endpoint occurs at the same relative timepoint from the start of treatment in all patients.

About Hepatitis C Virus (HCV)

HCV is a blood-borne, positive-sense, single-stranded (ss) RNA virus that primarily infects liver cells. HCV is a leading cause of chronic liver disease and liver transplants, spreading via blood transfusion, hemodialysis and needle sticks, with approximately 240,000 deaths occurring each year. Despite the availability of direct-acting antivirals, HCV continues to be a significant global healthcare issue. An estimated 50 million people worldwide are chronically infected with HCV and there are approximately one million new infections each year. In the US, between 2.4 and 4.0 million people are estimated to have HCV with annual new infections outpacing treatment rates. HCV infections in the US predominate in patients in the age group between 20-49 years old, and it is estimated that less than 10% of HCV-infected patients in the US have cirrhosis. Chronic HCV infection is the leading cause of liver cancer in the US, Europe and Japan.

About Bemnifosbuvir and Ruzasvir for HCV

Results from the Phase 2 study (n=275) evaluating the regimen of bemnifosbuvir and ruzasvir for 8 weeks showed a 98% SVR12 rate (210/215) with the regimen in the “Per-Protocol Treatment-Adherent Population.” The SVR12 rate was 95% (245/259) in the “Per-Protocol Regardless of Adherence Population” (also referred to as the “efficacy evaluable population”), which included patients who were not treatment adherent (17%).

Results from Phase 1 studies have demonstrated that the combination of bemnifosbuvir and ruzasvir has a low risk of drug-drug interactions (DDIs) and can be taken with or without food. Importantly, Phase 1 results showed no interaction between bemnifosbuvir and ruzasvir and a standard human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) treatment, supporting its potential use in HCV patients co-infected with HIV, and the safety of bemnifosbuvir in healthy volunteer participants with hepatic or renal impairment with no need for dose adjustments.

Bemnifosbuvir has been shown in in vitro studies to be approximately 10-fold more active than sofosbuvir (SOF) against a panel of laboratory strains and clinical isolates of HCV GT 1–5. In vitro studies have also demonstrated bemnifosbuvir remained fully active against SOF resistance-associated substitutions (S282T), with up to 58-fold more potency than SOF. Bemnifosbuvir has been administered to over 2,300 subjects and has been well-tolerated at doses up to 550 mg for durations up to 12 weeks in healthy subjects and patients.

Ruzasvir has demonstrated highly potent and pan-genotypic antiviral activity in preclinical (picomolar range) and clinical studies. Ruzasvir has been administered to over 2,100 subjects at daily doses of up to 180 mg for 12 weeks and has demonstrated a favorable safety profile.

Rivus Pharmaceuticals Announces New Data from Phase 2 M-ACCEL Trial of HU6 in MASH in Late-Breaker Oral Presentation at AASLD The Liver Meeting® 2025

Rivus Pharmaceuticals Announces New Data from Phase 2 M-ACCEL Trial of HU6 in MASH in Late-Breaker Oral Presentation at AASLD The Liver Meeting® 2025




Rivus Pharmaceuticals Announces New Data from Phase 2 M-ACCEL Trial of HU6 in MASH in Late-Breaker Oral Presentation at AASLD The Liver Meeting® 2025

– Trial met primary endpoint, with statistically significant reductions in liver fat observed in all HU6 treatment groups –

– In addition to robust liver-centric effects, HU6 resulted in fat-selective weight loss with preservation of skeletal muscle mass; potential to address the metabolic dysfunction underlying MASH –

– HU6 was well tolerated in M-ACCEL, with 450 patients treated to date –

CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va. and SOUTH SAN FRANCISCO, Calif., Nov. 07, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Rivus Pharmaceuticals, Inc., a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company dedicated to treating obesity and associated cardiometabolic diseases, today announced the presentation of new clinical data from the Phase 2 M-ACCEL trial evaluating HU6 in patients with MASH (metabolic dysfunction-associated steatohepatitis). These data will be featured in a late-breaker oral presentation at the American Association for the Study of Liver Diseases (AASLD) The Liver Meeting® 2025 being held November 7-11, 2025, in Washington, DC.

These results build on the positive topline results announced by Rivus in June 2025, showing that the M-ACCEL trial met its primary endpoint, with statistically significant reductions in liver fat content at six months versus placebo (p<0.005) across all three HU6 treatment groups. 50-58% of patients treated with HU6 achieved a ≥30% reduction in liver fat, which was also statistically significant (p<0.005 for all doses versus placebo).

“MASH is a serious, obesity-driven disease that can lead to cirrhosis, liver failure and premature death,” said Mazen Noureddin, M.D., Professor of Medicine, Houston Methodist Hospital and Co-Chairman of the Board of the Summit and Pinnacle Clinical Research Networks. “In the M-ACCEL study, a majority of patients treated with HU6 achieved 30% or greater reduction in liver fat, which has been shown to be a clinically meaningful result associated with MASH resolution and fibrosis improvement. In addition to the robust liver-centric effects, HU6 treatment resulted in fat-selective weight loss with preservation of skeletal muscle mass, which may address the metabolic dysfunction underlying MASH. The favorable efficacy, safety, and tolerability profile of this oral investigational therapy supports HU6’s potential long-term use in treating individuals living with this chronic disease.”

M-ACCEL also met a number of secondary endpoints, including reductions in body weight and body fat, with selectivity for abdominal visceral (versus subcutaneous) fat, while preserving skeletal muscle mass, supporting HU6’s potential to address the metabolic dysfunction underlying MASH.

“There is a real need for novel therapies with new mechanisms for treating MASH as well as other chronic diseases associated with obesity,” said David Grainger, Ph.D., Chairman of Development, Rivus Pharmaceuticals. “Across three Phase 2 trials, all of which met their primary endpoints, HU6 has consistently demonstrated a unique tolerability profile with the potential to address the need for a long-term treatment for what are typically chronic diseases. Given the competitive efficacy and safety profile of HU6 as a novel MASH therapeutic, we are eager to initiate our next trial to address the growing need for new treatment options.”

At the six-month endpoint in M-ACCEL, the pre-specified modified intent-to-treat (mITT) analysis of 228 patients showed:

  • Liver fat reduction: Primary endpoint met as HU6 showed a statistically significant reduction in liver fat compared to placebo (by least-squares mean difference -29.4%, -31.2%, -27.0% for 150, 300, and 450 mg doses, respectively, versus -6.7% with placebo; p<0.005 for each versus placebo). Approximately two-thirds of patients had Type 2 diabetes at baseline; HU6 efficacy was similar between diabetic and non-diabetic patients.
  • Responder rate: Majority of patients achieved ≥30% liver fat reduction, with 57%, 58%, and 50% of patients achieving a response following 150, 300, and 450 mg doses, respectively, versus 22% for placebo (p<0.005).
  • Weight loss: HU6 at 300 mg and 450 mg significantly reduced total body weight and body fat (-2.4%, or -2.6 kg, at 450 mg). Weight loss was entirely fat-selective, with lean and skeletal muscle mass preserved. This is in contrast to incretin-based therapies, which have been shown in clinical studies to reduce lean muscle mass.
  • Abdominal visceral fat reduction: ~2:1 selectivity for abdominal visceral fat, which is strongly associated with cardiometabolic risk, versus abdominal subcutaneous fat.
  • Safety and tolerability profile: HU6 was well tolerated with no treatment-related serious adverse events. The most common class of adverse events was gastrointestinal disorders (14% with HU6 versus 16% with placebo). Low discontinuation rate (≤5%) due to treatment-emergent adverse events.

Rivus plans to initiate the Phase 2 AMPLIFY trial in MASH to confirm dosing prior to future late-stage clinical trials for HU6. To date, approximately 450 patients have been treated with HU6.

AASLD oral presentation details are as follows:
Abstract Title: HU6 Oral Investigational Therapy Reduces Liver Fat and Improves Adiposity Markers in Adults with MASH: Top-line Results from a Phase 2 Randomized Placebo-Controlled Trial (M-ACCEL)
Late-Breaking Abstract Number: 5005
Format: Oral Presentation
Presenter: Mazen Noureddin, M.D., Professor of Medicine at Houston Methodist Hospital and Co-Chairman of the Board of the Summit and Pinnacle Clinical Research Networks
Presentation Date and Time: Monday, November 10, 2025, 2:00 – 2:15 p.m. ET

A copy of the AASLD presentation will be available after the oral presentation session ends under “Clinical Data and Scientific Publications” in Our Science section of Rivus’ website.

About the Phase 2 M-ACCEL Trial
The randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, parallel-group Phase 2 M-ACCEL trial (ClinicalTrials.gov: (NCT05979779) evaluated HU6 at 150 mg, 300 mg, and 450 mg once daily for 26 weeks in adults with MASH. Participants were randomized 2:1:2:2 (placebo:HU6 150:HU6 300:HU6 450). Eligible patients had liver fat ≥8% by MRI-PDFF and a VCTE score of 7–15 kPa, targeting fibrosis stages F2-F3. The primary endpoint was percent change from baseline in liver fat as measured by MRI-PDFF at six months. Secondary and exploratory endpoints included proportion of patients achieving ≥30% liver fat reduction, changes in body weight, body composition, glycemic control, blood pressure, and metabolic and inflammatory markers. 

About MASH (Metabolic Dysfunction-Associated Steatohepatitis)
MASH (formerly known as nonalcoholic steatohepatitis or NASH) is a serious liver disease that often progresses to cirrhosis, liver failure, hepatocellular carcinoma, the need for liver transplantation, and premature death. MASH is caused by an accumulation of excess fat cells in the liver and is closely linked to obesity. MASH is an independent driver of cardiovascular disease, the leading cause of mortality for patients, underscoring the close association between MASH and a patient’s overall cardiometabolic health. There is a need for therapies that address both hepatic and systemic metabolic dysfunction.

Approximately 5% of U.S. adults have MASH,1,2 which is rapidly becoming the leading cause of liver transplantation. With obesity rates rising worldwide, MASH is predicted to have a significant impact on global health.

About Controlled Metabolic Accelerators (CMAs)
Rivus is advancing a new class of oral medicines called Controlled Metabolic Accelerators (CMAs) for obesity and associated cardiometabolic diseases. Rivus’ CMAs are designed to induce sustained, fat-selective, muscle-preserving weight loss. These oral small molecule therapeutics are engineered to safely increase resting metabolic rate and result in increased energy expenditure primarily from fat. Leveraging the natural metabolic process of mitochondrial uncoupling, CMAs increase the resting metabolic rate in a manner that is precision-controlled, in clinical trials to date, and imperceptible to the patient. Rivus’ lead CMA HU6 is in Phase 2 clinical development. 

About HU6
HU6 (ANT activator) is an oral investigational therapy designed to treat obesity and associated cardiometabolic diseases. HU6 is engineered to safely increase resting metabolic rate in a precision-controlled and imperceptible manner, resulting in increased expenditure of energy, primarily from fat. Across three Phase 2a clinical trials, HU6 has demonstrated positive results and a well-tolerated safety profile in MASH (metabolic dysfunction associated steatohepatitis), MASLD (metabolic dysfunction-associated steatotic liver disease), and HFpEF (heart failure with preserved ejection fraction). To date, approximately 450 patients have received HU6 as part of the clinical development program.

  • AFRS is a chronic type 2 inflammatory disease of the sinuses characterized by a fungal hypersensitivity

Paris and Tarrytown, NY, November 7, 2025. Positive results from the pivotal LIBERTY-AFRS-AIMS phase 3 study (NCT04684524) evaluating the investigational use of Dupixent (dupilumab) in adults and children aged 6 years and older with allergic fungal rhinosinusitis (AFRS) demonstrated significant improvements in signs and symptoms of disease across all primary and secondary endpoints, including reductions in sinus opacification, nasal congestion, and nasal polyps compared to placebo. These are the first-ever positive phase 3 results specifically in AFRS and will be shared today at the American College of Allergy, Asthma and Immunology (ACAAI) 2025 Annual Scientific Meeting, Orlando, FL, US.

Recently, the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) accepted for priority review the supplemental biologics license application (sBLA) for Dupixent in adults and children aged 6 years and older with AFRS. Priority review is granted by the FDA to regulatory applications seeking approval for therapies that have the potential to provide significant improvements in the treatment, diagnosis, or prevention of serious conditions. If approved, AFRS would represent the ninth FDA-approved indication for Dupixent.

AFRS, a subtype of chronic rhinosinusitis, is a chronic type 2 inflammatory disease of the sinuses caused by an intense allergic hypersensitivity to fungi, most usually aspergillus. It primarily affects people living in warm, humid climates where fungal spores are common in the environment. It can lead to nasal polyps, nasal congestion, loss of smell, thick mucus discharge, poor health-related quality of life, bone loss around the sinus cavities, and facial deformities. AFRS is a unique and distinct type of chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps that can be harder to treat because it does not respond well to available options. Current standard-of-care treatment is surgery and prolonged courses of systemic steroids; however, disease recurrence can occur.

“People with allergic fungal rhinosinusitis live with persistent nasal obstruction, congestion, and polyps that can place a great strain on their day-to-day lives. With limited treatment options, uncontrolled symptoms can progress to serious complications like the buildup of thick mucus that may require surgery, bony erosion of the sinuses, and facial deformities,” said Amber U. Luong, MD, PhD, FACS, Professor and Vice Chair for Academic Affairs in the Department of Otorhinolaryngology at the McGovern Medical School of the University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston, US and lead investigator of the study. “This study is significant as it is the first positive phase 3 study for an investigational treatment specifically for AFRS. The ability of Dupixent to alleviate the hallmark signs and symptoms of AFRS, and to reduce the risk for surgery and corticosteroids by 92%, provide the strongest evidence to date that IL4 and IL13 are key drivers of the type 2 inflammation leading to this disease, as they seem to be for multiple other type 2 inflammatory diseases.”

In the LIBERTY-AFRS-AIMS study, 62 adults and children aged 6 years and older with AFRS were randomized to receive an age- and weight-based dose of Dupixent (200 mg or 300 mg; n=33) every two or four weeks or placebo (n=29). The differences for Dupixent compared to placebo were as follows:

  • Primary Endpoint: Sinus opacification scores (a measure of nasal congestion as assessed by computed tomography [CT] scans) improved by 50.0% in the Dupixent group versus 9.8% in the placebo group at 52 weeks (7.36-point placebo-corrected reduction; p<0.0001); a significant reduction in sinus opacification scores was also observed at 24 weeks (p<0.0001)
  • Secondary Endpoints:
    • Patient-reported nasal congestion/obstruction improved by 66.7% in the Dupixent group versus 25.3% in the placebo group at 24 weeks (0.87-point placebo-corrected reduction; p<0.0001), with continued improvement at 52 weeks to 80.6% in the Dupixent group compared to 11.1% in the placebo group (1.40-point placebo-corrected reduction; p<0.0001)
    • Nasal polyp size (as assessed by endoscopy) reduced by 60.8% in the Dupixent group compared to 15.2% in the placebo group at 24 weeks (2.36-point placebo-corrected reduction; p<0.0001), with continued reduction of 62.5% in the Dupixent group compared to 3.6% in the placebo group up to 52 weeks (2.77-point placebo-corrected reduction; p<0.0001)
    • 92% lower risk of systemic corticosteroid use and/or in need of surgery in the Dupixent group compared to placebo (29.1% fewer proportion of patients; p=0.0010) over 52 weeks

The safety in the study was generally consistent with the known safety profile of Dupixent in its approved respiratory indications. The overall rates of adverse events (AEs) were 70% with Dupixent and 79% with placebo. The most common treatment-emergent AEs (>10%) occurring more frequently in Dupixent compared to placebo included COVID-19 (15% Dupixent, 14% placebo) and nosebleed (12% Dupixent, 4% placebo). Serious AEs were reported in 0% and 7% of patients treated with Dupixent and placebo, respectively. Additionally, AEs leading to study treatment discontinuation were reported in 3% of Dupixent patients and 4% of placebo patients.

The safety and efficacy of Dupixent in AFRS have not been fully evaluated by any regulatory authority.

  • Change from baseline in patient-reported nasal congestion (NC; scale: 0-3)
  • Change from baseline in nasal polyp score (NPS; scale: 0-8) as measured by endoscopy
  • LMK score

Secondary endpoints assessed at 52 weeks included:

  • Change from baseline in NPS
  • Change from baseline in NC
  • Proportion of patients requiring surgery or systemic corticosteroids

About Dupixent
Dupixent (dupilumab) is a fully human monoclonal antibody that inhibits the signaling of the interleukin-4 (IL4) and interleukin-13 (IL13) pathways and is not an immunosuppressant. The Dupixent development program has shown significant clinical benefit and a decrease in type 2 inflammation in phase 3 studies, establishing that IL4 and IL13 are two of the key and central drivers of the type 2 inflammation that plays a major role in multiple related and often co-morbid diseases.

Dupixent has received regulatory approvals in more than 60 countries in one or more indications including certain patients with atopic dermatitis, asthma, chronic rhinosinusitis with nasal polyps, eosinophilic esophagitis, prurigo nodularis, chronic spontaneous urticaria, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, and bullous pemphigoid in different age populations. More than one million patients are being treated with Dupixent globally.

Dupilumab development program
Dupilumab is being jointly developed by Sanofi and Regeneron under a global collaboration agreement. To date, dupilumab has been studied across more than 60 clinical studies involving more than 10,000 patients with various chronic diseases driven in part by type 2 inflammation.

In addition to the currently approved indications, Sanofi and Regeneron are studying dupilumab in a broad range of diseases driven by type 2 inflammation or other allergic processes in phase 3 studies, including chronic pruritus of unknown origin, lichen simplex chronicus, and allergic fungal rhinosinusitis. These potential uses of dupilumab are currently under clinical investigation, and the safety and efficacy in these conditions have not been fully evaluated by any regulatory authority.

Scancell Holdings plc 

Scancell holds oral presentation of positive Phase 2 data on Immunobody® iSCIB1+ in late-stage melanoma at SITC 2025

Data from SCOPE trial show a potential new benchmark in efficacy, durability, immune responses and safety

Progression-free survival (PFS) for iSCIB1+ in target population at 11 months is 78%, compared with historic 12 months PFS of 46% with doublet checkpoint therapy of ipilimumab and nivolumab

Development plans for iSCIB1+ accelerated including regulatory and partnering discussions, with randomised studies on path to registration expected to start in 2026

NOTTINGHAM, United Kingdom, Nov. 07, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Scancell Holdings plc (AIM: SCLP), the developer of Immunobody® and Moditope® active immunotherapies to treat cancer, announces the presentation of positive data from the ongoing Phase 2 SCOPE trial of its iSCIB1+ Immunobody® DNA active immunotherapy, in combination with checkpoint inhibitors in patients with advanced unresectable melanoma, at the Society for Immunotherapy of Cancer (SITC) 40th Anniversary Annual Meeting in National Harbor, MD, USA.

The data, first reported in July and now outlined in an oral presentation, show that iSCIB1+ is a potential new benchmark for treatment of patients with late-stage melanoma in terms of efficacy, durability, immune responses and safety. SCOPE results to date show progression-free survival (PFS) for iSCIB1+ in the target human leukocyte antigen (HLA) population at 11 months is 78%, compared with the historic 12-month PFS of 46% reported by doublet checkpoint therapy of ipilimumab and nivolumab.1

Dr Nermeen Varawalla, Chief Medical Officer of Scancell, said: “The data from SCOPE so far indicate that iSCIB1+ has groundbreaking potential to deliver meaningful clinical benefits to patients. It has been shown to enhance response rates, disease control, progression-free survival and immune activation, combined with a robust safety profile that allows integration with standard of care without added toxicity. This positions iSCIB1+ as a transformative option for patients with metastatic melanoma and opens possibilities for earlier-stage, resectable disease in neoadjuvant or adjuvant settings, and we are looking forward to moving this exciting ImmunoBody® into randomised studies, on the path to registration, in 2026.”

Combined data for the defined HLA target population across Cohorts 1 and 3 shows 22-month PFS of 69%, representing a meaningful improvement over historic doublet checkpoint therapy. The overall response rate (ORR) and disease control rate (DCR) for SCIB1 and iSCIB1+ also demonstrate superiority whether combined with doublet checkpoint or single checkpoint therapy, and data from more than 100 patients across the trial show a favourable safety profile.

Based on these data, iSCIB1+ has been selected for future development expanding the addressable patients to around 80% of late-stage melanoma patients and with longer patent life. Development plans are now accelerated including regulatory and partnering discussions. Randomised studies on the path to registration are anticipated to begin in 2026.

Details of the presentation

Title: SCOPE, an open label phase 2 parallel multi cohort clinical trial evaluating an off-the-shelf DNA plasmid vaccine in first line advanced melanoma combined with check point blockade – interim read-out.

Abstract Number: 1325

Session: Clinical Oral Abstract Session 2

Date and time: Saturday, November 8, 2025, 1:45 PM ET

SCOPE (ClinicalTrials.gov: NCT04079166) is a Phase 2, UK multi-centre open-label study investigating SCIB1/iSCIB1+ in combination with checkpoint inhibitors in late-stage melanoma and will enrol more than 140 patients across four cohorts. Its aim is to evaluate the efficacy, safety and durability of SCIB1 or iSCIB1+ DNA Immunobody® therapies when given to patients in combination with SoC checkpoint inhibitors in stage IIIB/IV unresectable metastatic melanoma, and to inform the design of a Phase 2b/3 randomised controlled registration trial.

Scancell (LSE:SCLP; www.scancell.co.uk) is a clinical stage biotechnology company developing targeted off-the-shelf active immunotherapies, to generate safe and long-lasting tumour-specific immunity for a cancer-free future. iSCIB1+, the lead product from their DNA ImmunoBody® platform has demonstrated safe, durable and clinically meaningful benefit as a monotherapy as well as additional benefit when combined with checkpoint therapies in an ongoing Phase 2 trial in melanoma. Modi-1, the lead peptide immunotherapy from their Moditope® platform, is being investigated in a Phase 2 study in a broad range of solid tumours. In addition, Scancell’s wholly owned subsidiary, GlyMab Therapeutics Ltd., has been established with the intention to hold and develop an exciting early-stage pipeline of high affinity GlyMab® antibodies targeting tumour specific glycans, two of which already have been licensed and are being developed by Genmab A/S, an international biotechnology company and global leader in the antibody therapeutics space.

PRESS RELEASE

Memo Therapeutics AG Presents Long Term Follow-Up Data from its Phase II SAFE KIDNEY Trial of Potravitug and Real World Data on the Challenges and Resource Utilization of Managing Kidney Transplant Recipients at ASN Kidney Week Meeting

  • Long term follow-up data shows a sustained and improved (vs. week 20) benefit of potravitug on BK polyomavirus viral load in kidney transplant recipients at week 38 (study end)
  • Potravitug was well tolerated, with no treatment related serious adverse events reported

Schlieren / Zurich, Switzerland, 7 November, 2025 – Memo Therapeutics AG (“MTx”), a late-stage biotech company translating unique immune responses into superior medicines to treat viral infections and cancer, today announces that it has presented long term follow-up data from its Phase II SAFE KIDNEY trial of therapeutic antibody potravitug for the treatment of BK polyomavirus (BKPyV) infection in kidney transplant recipients (KTRs) at the American Society of Nephrology (ASN) Kidney Week Meeting from November 5–9, 2025, in Houston, Texas.

The data was presented under the title: ‘Potravitug for the Treatment of BK Polyomavirus Infection in Kidney Transplant Recipients: A Phase II, Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Clinical Trial,’ demonstrated a sustained and improved (vs. week 20) benefit of potravitug on BKPyV viral load in KTRs at week 38 (study end). The treatment was well tolerated, with no treatment-related serious adverse events reported.

Viral levels lower than the lower limit of quantitation (<LLOQ) were observed in 17.5% and 12.9% for potravitug 1,000 mg and placebo at week 20 and 24.4% and 13.0% at week 38. Furthermore, at this follow-up timepoint, ≥2-log10 reductions, indicating a drop in viral levels of ≥99% vs baseline, occurred in 35.6 vs. 22.5% (adjusted OR 1.93 [0.67-5.54]) at week 20 and in 40.3 vs 24.7% (OR 2.11 [0.76-5.88]) in the potravitug and placebo groups, respectively, indicating a longer term response and reduction of viral load with potravitug.

Potravitug 1,000 mg showed a higher composite virologic response, defined as ≥1-log10 decline in BKPyV-DNAemia in the absence of BKPyV-associated nephropathy (BKPyVAN): (57.2%) vs placebo (33.4%) (adjusted OR 2.79 [1.00-7.75]; nominal p=0.05). While biopsy proven BKPyVAN in the potravitug arm dropped from 51.2% at baseline to 31.6% at week 20; no change was seen in placebo group (23.8% to 24.4%).

“These long-term follow-up Phase II results provide further evidence that potravitug has the potential to become a transformative treatment for kidney transplant patients with BKPyV infection, with continued therapeutic benefit beyond our initial week 20 data,” said Erik van den Berg, CEO of MTx. “There are currently no approved therapeutic treatments for BKPyV infection in kidney transplant recipients. We look forward to continuing discussions with regulatory bodies and progressing into Phase III development in 2026.”

Further data to be presented at the conference tomorrow will feature real world evidence from a study of first year outcomes, healthcare resource utilization and costs among kidney transplant patients in the United States. The data shows that in the year following kidney transplantation, patients experience many post-transplant care changes and have a high healthcare resource consumption, necessitating therapies like potravitug, to address these complications. Acute rejection and other adverse outcomes sometimes occur within the first 12 months following transplant. This was one of the largest studies ever conducted in a kidney transplant population, including over 35,000 patients followed via administrative claims to determine their post-transplant care journeys.

Potravitug was awarded U.S. FDA Fast Track designation in May 2023.

In July 2025, MTx announced promising topline results from its Phase II placebo-controlled clinical trial of potravitug at the World Transplant Congress.

About BK polyomavirus in kidney transplant recipients
More than 100,000 kidney transplants are conducted worldwide every year. BKPyV can become reactivated in up to 50% of these patients and up to 70% of patients with BKPyV viremia develop BKPyV nephropathy, which significantly increases the risks of kidney loss and patient death.

React19 Launches “This Is Our Shot” Campaign as U.S. Vaccine Injury Victims Continue to Go Unheard and Uncompensated

Patient-led nonprofit has already distributed $1.4 million in aid, challenging the federal government’s injury program

SALT LAKE CITY, Nov. 06, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — As the federal government’s Countermeasures Injury Compensation Program (CICP) has approved just 41 vaccine injury claims nationwide as of October 1, 2025, the nonprofit React19 has quietly filled the gap, providing $1,414,982 in direct medical grants to nearly 200 individuals across the United States.

A Media Snippet accompanying this announcement is available by clicking on this link.

This week, React19 announced the launch of ‘This Is Our Shot,’ a nationwide campaign to raise over $1 million for additional care grants. Two anonymous benefactors have pledged $250,000 each, creating a $500,000 matching fund that will double every donation until the match is met.

“When someone is injured, it shouldn’t mean they’re left to struggle alone,” said Brianne Dressen, React19 co-founder. “The government’s program has failed to deliver meaningful relief. Families are drowning in medical debt, and React19 has stepped in where no one else will.”

The React19 CARE Fund covers expenses for patients suffering serious, often disabling injuries after COVID-19 vaccination, including doctor visits, therapies, medications, adaptive equipment, and daily living needs. Unlike the CICP, which denies or delays many claims, React19’s model delivers direct, rapid assistance made possible by individual donors.

The ‘This Is Our Shot’ campaign spotlights the stories of several patients who have received Care Fund support, including Danielle Baker. When a COVID vaccine left this registered nurse Danielle Baker bedbound and dependent on oxygen, her life changed overnight. Once an active healthcare professional, she found herself facing a lifelong disability, and a system unprepared to help.

Told to prepare for hospice care, Danielle refused to give up. “I wasn’t ready to die,” she says. “React19 helped me when I had nowhere else to turn.” Through the Care Fund, she found hope, treatment, and a community determined to make sure no one is left behind.

“Every dollar donated to React19’s Care Fund goes directly to medical expenses for vaccine-injured individuals like myself,” said Baker. “Your support could mean the difference between receiving treatment, or going without.”

React19 was founded in 2021 by patients and clinicians seeking recognition, research, and recovery for those living with vaccine injuries. The organization now serves a community of over 40,000 patients, caregivers, and physicians.

“We can’t undo what happened,” said React19 co-founder Dr. Joel Wallskog. “But we can walk this road together. Every act of generosity tells someone, ‘I see you. I care about you. You matter.’ That’s what this campaign is about.”

The ‘This Is Our Shot’ campaign video, patient stories, and donation links are available at react19.org/care

About React19

React19 is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit providing financial, medical, and emotional support to individuals experiencing prolonged adverse events following COVID-19 vaccination. Founded by patients and guided by physicians and researchers, React19 advocates for recognition, research, and recovery. Learn more at react19.org.
