We’re proud to announce we have received regulatory approval to expand our Phase I trial into two subtypes of sarcoma: synovial and myxoid round cell sarcoma. The approval from Germany’s Paul Ehrlich Institute extends the inclusion criteria to four cancer types in our Phase I first-in-human PeptiCRAd-1 with Pembrolizumab trial: sarcoma, melanoma, triple negative breast cancer, and non-small cell lung cancer. PeptiCRAd-1 combines the immune system activating potency of an oncolytic virus and the power of anti-tumor cytotoxic T-cells. It is the only oncolytic virus therapy that targets tumor antigens in this way. Our approach to reinventing #immunotherapy in #oncology, enables it to be personalized to every cancer patient with PeptiCRAd - a highly specific, immunogenic, and rapidly adaptable platform for the treatment of #cancer. Sarcomas are cancers that develop in the bones and soft tissues, with around 12,000 cases in the US each year. 🔗 Read our press release: https://lnkd.in/eQkpCaRR 🔬 Find out more on our novel, adaptable, immunotherapy platforms for cancer: www.valotx.com #biotech #pharma

We are pleased to announce we have opened our third #ClinicalTrial site, at the University Hospital in Tübingen, Germany, at the Eberhard Karls University of Tuebingen’s Gene and RNA Therapy Centre (GRTC), one of the country’s top clinical virotherapy centers. At the GRTC, Prof. Ulrich M. Lauer’s group is focusing on preclinical and clinical research on oncolytic virotherapy. GRTC joins #cancer centers at Krankenhaus Nordwest in Frankfurt, and at National Center for Tumor Diseases (NCT) Heidelberg. This supports study enrollment into the Phase I study with lead product PeptiCRAd-1 (Peptide-coated Conditionally Replicating Adenovirus 1) which is being administered together with checkpoint inhibitor pembrolizumab in patients with melanoma, triple negative breast cancer or non-small cell lung cancer. PeptiCRAd-1 combines an #oncolytic adenovirus and tumor-specific peptides for the generation of a strong systemic cytotoxic T-cell responses against multiple tumor antigens.

🤝 We are pleased to announce we are the first #biotech company in Europe to install and use the Bruker Corporation’s new timsTOF Ultra mass spectrometer instrument with unparalleled sensitivity, which will enable rapid identification of Tumor Antigens in conjunction with our own PeptiCHIP technology! Tumor neoantigens are expressed uniquely by #cancer cells and their presence can trigger an efficient immune response against the tumor, and using Bruker’s top-of-the line platform increases allows us to identify thousands of antigens from each PeptiCHIP processed tiny tumor sample with unparalleled speed, sensitivity, and robustness. 🔗 Read the full release: https://lnkd.in/e-QwuzhY 🚀 Find out more on our novel, adaptable, immunotherapy platforms for cancer: www.valotx.com Otto Kari, Paul G Higham #Innovation #ImmunoTherapy
