Bicara Therapeutics Inc. announced the presentation of preliminary data from a Phase 1b expansion cohort evaluating 750 mg of ficerafusp alfa administered weekly in combination with pembrolizumab for first-line treatment of HPV-negative recurrent/metastatic head and neck squamous cell carcinoma. The results were shared in an oral presentation at the European Society for Medical Oncology (ESMO) Asia Congress. According to the company, the 750 mg dose demonstrated a consistent overall response rate and safety profile comparable to the 1500 mg dose. Bicara Therapeutics indicated that these findings advance the dose-selection process for the pivotal FORTIFI-HN01 study, with the optimal biologic dose expected to be declared in the first quarter of 2026. The company held a conference call and webcast on December 6, 2025, to discuss these results.
