The analysis showed a CA-125 GCIG response rate of 58% or higher in evaluable patients in the VB-111 treatment arm. Based on the results of the interim analysis, the Data and Safety Monitoring Committee (DSMC) recommended continuing the trial as planned. The results were published online in the international peer reviewed journal <em>Gynecologic Oncology<\/em> (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.globenewswire.com\/Tracker?data=_WvSDymJ2Oqinv1bYAy7_QAcSsOJqg9DitaUPZf-hqc9uLYrDTKxZm1fUxa7WuZhvv2wAnnCvyYJ3w2xRvMXKlilmhqG454Jzz8ROgGKaq8vwRrfw_CJF7h2dStUUiNxwfT8EtiyzHS2znfHnt6k1Q==\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1016\/j.ygyno.2021.02.014<\/a>).<\/p>\n<p align=\"left\">\u201cThe goal of this interim analysis was to get a signal of drug activity, using CA-125 as a validated biomarker,\u201d said Bradley J. Monk, M.D., FACOG, FACS, Arizona Oncology (US Oncology Network), University of Arizona College of Medicine, Creighton University School of Medicine, Head of the OVAL steering committee and author on the manuscript. \u201cThe intention was to reduce the risk of a negative trial and increase the chance of success. New and novel approaches that have the potential to significantly extend progression free survival or survival are eminently required in platinum-resistant ovarian cancer. VB-111, with its very unique mechanism of action, could be one of those novel approaches and I look forward to the progress of the OVAL trial, which is well designed to test this hypothesis.\u201d<\/p>\n<p align=\"left\">The article reported results of the pre-specified interim analysis in the OVAL study, which reviewed unblinded data and assessed CA-125 response, measured according to the GCIG criteria, in the first 60 enrolled subjects evaluable for CA-125 analysis. Based on the overall response rate in the first 60 patients across both arms of 53%, and assuming balanced randomization and an absolute advantage of 10% or higher to the VB-111 arm, the response rate in the treatment arm (VB-111 in addition to weekly paclitaxel) was calculated to be 58% or higher. In patients who had post-dosing fever, which is a marker for VB-111 treatment,\u00a0the response rate\u00a0was 69%. The futility rule determined for this analysis was that the response rate of VB-111 must be greater than the response rate of placebo by at least 10% in order to continue the study. This rule was successfully met.<\/p>\n<p align=\"left\" dir=\"RTL\">\n        <span dir=\"LTR\">\u201cWe believe VB-111\u2019s unique dual mechanism of action has the potential to prolong life and possibly turn certain cancers into manageable chronic diseases,\u201d said Dror Harats, M.D., Chief Executive Officer of VBL Therapeutics. \u201cThe encouraging trajectory of the OVAL trial, not only as reported in this paper but also based on the pre-specified DSMC reviews, makes us hopeful that VB-111 may have a meaningful impact on ovarian cancer.\u201d<\/span>\n      <\/p>\n<p align=\"left\">\n        <strong>About the OVAL study (<\/strong><br \/>\n        <a href=\"https:\/\/www.globenewswire.com\/Tracker?data=08LGYBexEw0auZJOHcu5uy1T3d6LPCDsZS-OAD4NJkn7egrNkNev15a1EO3qbQvvFdP-BkVVvY98SYPSQK8yjKo3s8RrSV2O0Md2kSzSZJQ=\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">NCT03398655<\/a><br \/>\n        <strong>)<\/strong><br \/>\n        <br \/>OVAL is an international Phase 3 randomized pivotal registration enabling clinical trial that compares a combination of VB-111 and paclitaxel to placebo plus paclitaxel, in patients with platinum-resistant ovarian cancer. The study is planned to enroll approximately 400 patients.

VB-111 is administered as an IV infusion once every 6-8 weeks. It has been observed to be well-tolerated in &gt;300 cancer patients and demonstrated activity signals in an \u201call comers\u201d Phase 1 trial as well as in three tumor-specific Phase 2 studies.

VB-111 has also received orphan drug designation in both the US and\u00a0Europe, and fast track designation in the US for prolongation of survival in patients with rGBM.
