2019 – ESMO IO – NBTXR3 with anti-PD-1

Abstracts, Donnée clinique de NBTXR3, Foie, Poumon, Tête & Cou

The majority of cancer patients are resistant to immune therapy; only around 15% respond to immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI). Thus, strategies able to increase ICI response are of great interest. Recent work suggests radiotherapy (RT) can act as an immunomodulator to increase the proportion of ICI responders and improve clinical outcomes. However, RT dose and ultimate efficacy are limited by toxicity related to exposure of healthy tissues. […]

2019 – AHNS – Phase I/II NBTXR3 in combination with anti-PD-1

Abstracts, Donnée clinique de NBTXR3, Foie, Poumon, Tête & Cou

Preoperative radiotherapy (RT) is an option for a subset of patients with locally advanced primary or relapsed tumors. Yet, its impact on efficacy in terms of pathological response is limited, highlighting the need for novel multimodal therapies aimed at local control with low toxicity. NBTXR3 is made of hafnium oxide nanoparticles which, injected intratumorally (IT) and activated by ionizing radiation, yield a tumor-localized high energy deposit and increase cell death compared to the same dose of RT alone.

2019 – ASCO-SITC – NBTXR3 with anti-PD-1 in advanced HNSCC or NSCLC

Abstracts, Donnée clinique de NBTXR3, Poumon, Tête & Cou

Despite proven efficacy, a limited number of patients (pts) with recurrent/metastatic head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) or metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) benefit from anti-PD-1 treatment. Indeed, most pts do not respond to initial therapy due to intrinsic re-sistance to checkpoint inhibition. There is thus an important unmet medical need for a curative treatment in these pts and converting the local immune microenvironment to a “hot” phenotype may help to overcome therapeutic resistance.

2018 – OncoRad – NBXTR3 in HNSCC and NSCLC with anti-PD1

Abstracts, Donnée clinique de NBTXR3, Poumon, Tête & Cou

Recent clinical studies have demonstrated the efficacy of anti-PD-1 in recurrent/metastatic HNSCC and upfront metastatic NSCLC patients. However, most patients with recurrent/metastatic HNSCC demon-strate innate (primary) resistance to checkpoint inhibition and do not respond to initial therapy and only a subset of metastatic HNSCC/NSCLC patients benefits from this treatment. […]
