Bria-IMT Shows Promising Survival Gains in Late-Stage Breast Cancer, Exceeds Standard Care Outcomes
  • Follow-up data suggest a survival advantage over current standard treatments, with some patients surviving over 30 months, including long-term responders surviving up to 38.3 months.

  • Survival data from this cohort significantly outperform benchmarks from similar studies, where one-year survival rates typically range from 23% to 40%.

  • A Phase 2 clinical trial of Bria-IMT combined with checkpoint inhibitors has demonstrated promising survival benefits in heavily pretreated metastatic breast cancer patients, with a 52% one-year survival rate among 25 patients and some surviving over 30 months.

  • Expert commentary highlights the significance of these survival data, especially given the difficult-to-treat patient population, and emphasizes the potential of Bria-IMT to improve outcomes for late-stage metastatic breast cancer.

  • BriaCell's promising Phase 2 results surpass current standard care expectations, with a survival rate that indicates potential for meaningful clinical impact.

  • Despite these promising results, BriaCell is operating with negative cash flow, burning through $3.36 million in the last year, making upcoming trial outcomes crucial for its future prospects.

  • The trial's treatment schedule involves three-week cycles of therapies including cyclophosphamide, SV-BR-1-GM, checkpoint inhibitors, and interferon, with imaging assessments every 6 to 8 weeks.

  • BriaCell's ongoing Phase 3 trial has expanded to 58 sites across 15 states, with patient enrollment expected to conclude by early 2026 and top-line results anticipated in the first half of that year.

  • The encouraging results from these studies bolster confidence in BriaCell’s potential to improve outcomes for patients with advanced disease, including ongoing and future trials.

  • A Phase 3 pivotal trial (NCT06072612) is underway to provide more definitive efficacy data in metastatic breast cancer using the same formulation.

  • Patients in the study had failed multiple prior therapies, including checkpoint inhibitors and antibody-drug conjugates, with a median of six previous treatments, yet no treatment discontinuations related to Bria-IMT were reported.

  • The ongoing Phase 3 trial (BRIA-ABC) compares Bria-IMT plus Retifanlimab against physician’s choice treatments, enrolling up to 404 participants to further evaluate efficacy.

  • Bria-IMT has shown a favorable safety profile, with no treatment-related discontinuations, even in patients with advanced disease.
