Oncolytics Biotech Inc. has announced promising clinical and translational data supporting the development of its immunotherapy candidate, pelareorep, for use in second-line treatment of metastatic colorectal cancer (mCRC), specifically targeting patients with KRAS-mutant, microsatellite-stable disease. The data, which have already been presented, indicate a 33% overall response rate $(ORR)$ in this challenging patient subgroup. Based on these findings, Oncolytics plans to initiate a controlled clinical study to further evaluate pelareorep's efficacy in KRAS-mutant MSS mCRC. The company intends to sponsor the study to maintain full analytical rigor and data control, with the goal of supporting future regulatory submissions.
