‘s-HERTOGENBOSCH, the Netherlands; September 25, 2024. Amphera B.V., a late-stage biotechnology company developing MesoPher cell therapy to treat cancer, announces publication of the results of a phase II trial in resected pancreatic cancer (REACTIVE) in the Journal of Clinical Oncology (JCO).
Highlights from the REACTIVE trial in resected pancreatic cancer:
The phase II trial, including 38 patients with resected pancreatic cancer who had completed standard-of-care chemotherapy, met the primary endpoint demonstrating a clinically significant increase in 2-year recurrence-free survival of 64% compared to an expected 40%. This was accompanied with only low grade side effects.
The 2-year overall survival rate was 83%. Translational

Highlights from the DENIM trial in pleural mesothelioma:
In the DENIM phase II/III trial, mesothelioma patients with stable disease or better after platin-pemetrexed chemotherapy received either MesoPher maintenance treatment or best supportive care.
Although the study was negative for its primary endpoint of overall survival for all patients, the data reveal important subgroups of patients who had clinically meaningful benefit from MesoPher treatment.
Analysis revealed

Peritoneal mesothelioma is an aggressive cancer with a poor prognosis. Cytoreductive surgery (CRS) and hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC) improve survival, however, recurrence rates are high. 16 patients were treated with MesoPher as an adjuvant after HIPEC-CRS. Median progression free survival (PFS) was 12 months (IQR 5–23) and median overall survival (OS) was not reached. Median follow-up time for surviving patients was 26 months (IQR

Amphera B.V., a late-stage biotechnology company developing MesoPher cell therapy to treat cancer, today announces that the EMA Committee for Orphan Medicinal Products (COMP) has recommended the granting of orphan medicinal product designation for MesoPher in pancreatic cancer.
MesoPher is comprised of autologous dendritic cells loaded with PheraLys, a lysate of tumour cell lines. PheraLys contains a broad repertoire of tumour-associated antigens, many of which are present in pancreatic cancer and other cancers.
In December 20221, Amphera reported topline results from the phase II REACTIVE trial in patients with resected pancreatic cancer. MesoPher demonstrated a statistically
