ImmunityBio's (IBRX) shares rose past 6.1% in recent Tuesday trading after the company reported a "significant milestone" the trial of a bladder cancer treatment called Anktiva.
As of November, 100 patients with Bacillus Calmette-Guerin-unresponsive non-muscle invasive bladder cancer, were treated with Anktiva, or nogapendekin alfa inbakicept-pmln, combined with BCG, showing a 71% complete response rate, the company said. The durable response lasted up to 54 months in some patients.
"This significant milestone underscores the potential of Anktiva to provide durable responses in patients with limited treatment options," the company said.
The data will be submitted to the European Medicines Agency for approval in the EU, expected in Q4, the company said.
