ChonDRAgon Study Results Announced

On Thursday, the California-based clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company announced positive topline results from the registrational ChonDRAgon study, a Phase 2 trial evaluating ozekibart (INBRX-109) as a single agent versus placebo in patients with advanced or metastatic, unresectable chondrosarcoma.

Primary Endpoint Achievement

The 206-patient study met its primary endpoint, showing a statistically significant and clinically meaningful improvement in median progression-free survival.

Ozekibart lowered the risk of disease progression or death by 52% compared with placebo, with a stratified hazard ratio of 0.479 and a 95% confidence interval of 0.33 to 0.68, and a P value of less than 0.0001.

Median PFS reached 5.52 months versus 2.66 months for placebo.
