(NASDAQ: REPL), a clinical stage biotechnology company pioneering the development of novel oncolytic immunotherapies, today announced that the first patients have been enrolled in studies evaluating RP2 in two different settings: checkpoint na\u00efve metastatic uveal melanoma; and second-line recurrent or metastatic hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOn the heels of our BLA submission for RP1 and designation as breakthrough therapy, we are pleased that the first patients have been enrolled in both the RP2 HCC clinical trial and the registration intended study of RP2 in metastatic uveal melanoma,\u201d said Sushil Patel, Ph.D., CEO of Replimune. \u201cWe are excited to explore the broader potential of the RPx platform and these RP2 clinical trials will play an important part of our future development plans.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\n        <strong>RP2-202 Clinical Trial in Metastatic Uveal Melanoma<\/strong><br \/>\n        <br \/>Uveal melanoma is a type of cancer that occurs in the tissues of the eye. Up to 50 percent of patients with uveal melanoma may develop metastatic disease. The most common site of metastasis for uveal melanoma is the liver and is estimated to occur in 90-95% of cases.<sup>1<\/sup><\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe are honored and excited to be able to offer this clinical trial to our patients with uveal melanoma, a group of patients for whom treatment options are very limited,\u201d said Dr. Justin Moser, an associate clinical investigator in the Cancer Research Division of HonorHealth Research Institute, where he specializes in uveal melanoma. \u201cWe hope that, by providing our patients with early access to treatments through clinical trials, that we will be able to help give them longer, higher-quality lives.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>During ASCO 2024, results from an open-label, multicenter, Phase 2 study of RP2 alone or combined with nivolumab in a cohort of patients with uveal melanoma (n=17) were presented. RP2 administered as monotherapy or in combination with nivolumab demonstrated an overall response rate of 29.4%, with a disease control rate of 58.8%.<\/p>\n<p>The RP2-202 trial (NCT06581406) is a randomized, phase 2\/3 study that will enroll approximately 280 patients and evaluate RP2 in combination with nivolumab versus ipilimumab in combination with nivolumab in immune checkpoint inhibitor-na\u00efve adult patients with metastatic uveal melanoma. The primary endpoints of the study are overall survival and progression free survival. Key secondary endpoints are overall response rate and disease control rate.

Prognosis is generally poor with the majority of HCC cases diagnosed in the advanced stage. HCC comprises approximately 75 to 85 percent of primary liver cancer cases.<\/p>\n<p>The RP2-003 trial (NCT05733598) is an open label trial that will enroll 30 patients and evaluate RP2 combined with the second-line therapy of atezolizumab and bevacizumab in patients with locally advanced unresectable, recurrent and\/or metastatic HCC. The primary endpoint of the study is overall response rate (ORR) per modified RECIST 1.1 criteria. Key secondary endpoints are ORR per RECIST modified for HCC and duration of response.

Replimune\u2019s proprietary RPx platform is based on a potent HSV-1 backbone intended to maximize immunogenic cell death and the induction of a systemic anti-tumor immune response. The RPx platform is designed to have a unique dual local and systemic activity consisting of direct selective virus-mediated killing of the tumor resulting in the release of tumor derived antigens and altering of the tumor microenvironment to ignite a strong and durable systemic response. The RPx product candidates are expected to be synergistic with most established and experimental cancer treatment modalities, leading to the versatility to be developed alone or combined with a variety of other treatment options.
