HSV-tk is an enzyme that locally converts orally administered valacyclovir into a toxic metabolite that kills nearby cancer cells. Together, this regimen is designed to induce an individualized and specific CD8+ T cell-mediated response against the injected tumor and un-injected distant metastases for broad anti-tumor activity, based on in situ vaccination against a variety of tumor antigens. Because of its versatility, CAN-2409 has the potential to treat a broad range of solid tumors. Encouraging monotherapy activity as well as combination activity with standard of care radiotherapy, surgery, chemotherapy, and immune checkpoint inhibitors have previously been shown in several preclinical and clinical settings. More than 1,000 patients have been dosed with CAN-2409 with a favorable tolerability profile to date, supporting the potential for combination with other therapeutic strategies.<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">Currently, Candel is evaluating CAN-2409 in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), in an ongoing phase 2a clinical trial. The Company recently announced positive, statistically significant topline data for CAN-2409 based on a large, randomized, placebo-controlled phase 3 clinical trial of CAN-2409 in localized prostate cancer. In the Company\u2019s randomized phase 2a clinical trial of CAN-2409 in borderline resectable pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC), positive survival data showed notable improvement in estimated median overall survival of 31.4 months after experimental treatment with CAN-2409 plus standard of care versus only 12.5 months in the control group in patients with PDAC, who received only standard of care. Median survival post-progression was 21.2 months in patients who received CAN-2409 compared to 7.2 months in the control arm. CAN-2409 plus prodrug (valacyclovir) has been granted fast track designation by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the treatment of PDAC, stage III\/IV NSCLC in patients who are resistant to first line PD-(L)1 inhibitor therapy and who do not have activating molecular driver mutations or have progressed on directed molecular therapy, and localized primary prostate cancer. Candel\u2019s pivotal phase 3 clinical trial in prostate cancer was conducted under a special protocol assessment agreed with the FDA. The FDA has also granted orphan drug designation to CAN-2409 for the treatment of PDAC.<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">\n        <strong>About Candel Therapeutics<\/strong>\n      <\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">Candel is a clinical stage biopharmaceutical company focused on developing off-the-shelf multimodal biological immunotherapies that elicit an individualized, systemic anti-tumor immune response to help patients fight cancer.
