In a regulatory filing Friday, Agenus Inc (NASDAQ:AGEN) revealed Bristol Myers Squibb & Co (NYSE:BMY) terminated a license, development, and commercialization agreement forged in 2021.
The company said that as part of a broader strategic realignment of their development pipeline, which involves other licensed products, Bristol Myers Squibb is returning AGEN1777, a TIGIT bispecific antibody, to Agenus and voluntarily terminating the BMS License Agreement, effective as of January 26, 2025.
Most recently, Roche Holdings AG's (OTC:RHHBY) TIGIT drug, tiragolumab, failed in Phase 3 SKYSCRAPER-02 study in extensive-stage small-cell lung cancer (ES-SCLC) and did not meet its co-primary endpoint of progression-free survival.
In August last year, Roche was made aware of the inadvertent disclosure of the second interim analysis of the Phase 3 SKYSCRAPER-01 study, evaluating tiragolumab plus Tecentriq (atezolizumab) versus Tecentriq alone as an initial (first-line) treatment for PD-L1-high locally advanced or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer.
In May, Merck & Co Inc (NYSE:MRK) discontinued the vibostolimab, its TIGIT drug, and pembrolizumab coformulation arm of the Phase 3 KeyVibe-010 trial.
Results from Merck's Phase 2 KeyVibe-002 trial of vibostolimab/pembrolizumab combo, with or without docetaxel for metastatic non-small cell lung cancer with progressive disease after treatment with immunotherapy and platinum-doublet chemotherapy, did not show an improvement in median PFS compared to docetaxel alone.
Bristol Myers acquired AGEN1777 in 2021 by paying Agenus $200 million in cash.
Price Action: AGEN stock is down 7.10% at $5.23 at last check Monday.
在週五的監管文件中,艾吉納斯公司(納斯達克股票代碼:AGEN)透露,百時美施貴寶公司(紐約證券交易所:BMY)終止了兩家公司在2021年簽署的許可、開發和商業化協議。
該公司表示,作爲其開發管道更大戰略調整的一部分,百時美施貴寶正在將AGEN1777這種TIGIt二特異性抗體以及其他授權產品歸還給艾吉納斯公司,並自2025年1月26日起自願終止BMS許可協議。
最近,羅氏控股(場外:RHHBY)的TIGIt藥物Tiragolumab在大範圍小細胞肺癌(ES-SCLC)的3期SKYSCRAPER-02研究中失敗,並未達到其共同的無進展生存期終點。
去年8月,羅氏公司被告知了第3期SKYSCRAPER-01研究的第二次中期分析的意外披露情況,該研究評估了Tiragolumab加Tecentriq(Atezolizumab)與Tecentriq單獨作爲PD-L1高位限局部晚期或轉移性非小細胞肺癌的初始(一線)治療。
今年5月,默沙東公司(紐約證券交易所:MRK)停止了Vibostolimab,其TIGIt藥物和Pembrolizumab在第3期KeyVibe-010試驗中的聯合應用。
默沙東公司的Vibostolimab / Pembrolizumab組合在去除免疫治療和鉑雙藥化療後的轉移性非小細胞肺癌患者中,與僅使用Docetaxel相比,中位無進展生存期沒有顯著提高。
百時美施貴寶於2021年以2億美元的現金收購了AGEN1777股權。
價格走勢: AGEN 股價下跌 7.10%,週一報5.23美元。
