Enrollment in three other NeOnc clinical studies also advance after several published studies indicate the viability of NeOnc’s NEO™ platform to produce drugs which can function as therapeutics or blood-brain barrier delivery vehicles for chemotherapeutics that can beneficially effect brain cancer treatment.WESTLAKE VILLAGE, Calif., July 16, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- NeOnc Technologies Holdings, Inc., a clinical-stage medical biotechnology company, received FDA approval to expand its ongoing NEO100-01™ Phase 2a clinical trial to include Recurrent Grade III Astrocytoma with Isocitrate Dehydrogenase 1 (IDH1) mutation.
By broadening the inclusion criteria to encompass patients with Recurrent Grade III Astrocytoma with the IDH1 mutation, we not only advance our innovative platform but also provide new hope for patients who previously had limited treatment options.” "Our drive to push the boundaries of brain cancer treatment has never been stronger,” added Heshmatpour, "and this trial expansion is a testament to our team’s dedication to transforming patient outcomes.” By enabling better drug delivery to the brain cancer, the company believes its NEO technology can turn existing FDA-approved drugs into more effective treatments across a full range of central nervous system (CNS) disorders.
The FDA approval expands the current clinical trial, "An Open-Label, Phase 1/2a Dose Escalation Study of Safety and Efficacy of NEO100 in Recurrent Grade IV Glioma,” from only Recurrent Grade IV tumors that more often affects senior adults (typically 50-80 years of age) to a younger patient population (typically ages 30-40) that are more often affected by Grade III.
