Immutep Limited (ASX: IMM; NASDAQ: IMMP) (“Immutep” or “the Company”), a clinical-stage biotechnology company developing novel LAG-3 immunotherapies for cancer and autoimmune disease, today announces patient enrolment has been completed in the randomised Phase II portion of the AIPAC-003 (Active Immunotherapy and PAClitaxel) clinical trial.
The Phase II enrolled 65 metastatic hormone receptor positive (HR+), HER2-negative/low or triple-negative breast cancer patients who exhausted endocrine therapy including cyclin-dependent kinase 4/6 (CDK4/6) inhibitors. Patients across 22 clinical sites in Europe and the United States have been randomised 1:1 to receive either 30mg or 90mg dosing of eftilagimod alpha (“efti”) in combination with paclitaxel to determine the optimal biological dose consistent with the FDA’s Project Optimus initiative.
