Patients in Arm A1 received 1600mg of domvanalimab intravenously (IV) every four weeks (Q4W) plus 480mg of zimberelimab IV Q4W + FOLFOX (oxaliplatin 85 mg/m2 IV, leucovorin 400mg/m2 IV, fluorouracil 400mg/m2 IV bolus + 2400mg/m2 continuous 46-48-hour IV infusion) every two weeks. This cohort demonstrated a median overall of 26.7 months.
The data showed a confirmed overall response rate of 59% and a median progression-free survival of 12.9 months.
"These survival results add to the totality of data for domvanalimab and the role of anti-TIGIT-based combinations for the treatment of different cancers and reinforce our conviction that an Fc-silent anti-TIGIT antibody may provide differentiated efficacy and safety," said Richard Markus, chief medical officer of Arcus, in a Sunday press release.
No unexpected safety signals were observed at the time of data cutoff. The regimen of domvanalimab plus zimberelimab and chemotherapy was generally well tolerated.
Price Action: RCUS stock is up 6.58% at $15.56 at the last check on Monday.
