Announcement
BioAtla, Inc. today presented a poster of promising Phase 2 trial data at the European Society for Medical Oncology (ESMO) Annual Meeting. The poster presentation entitled, "Phase 2 trial of ozuriftamab vedotin (BA3021), a conditionally active biologic (CAB)-ROR2-ADC, in patients with recurrent or metastatic squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck," reported multiple confirmed responses among heavily pretreated patients who tolerated treatment well.
AI Summary
BioAtla, Inc. shared promising Phase 2 trial results at the European Society for Medical Oncology Annual Meeting. The study focused on ozuriftamab vedotin (BA3021), a novel conditionally active biologic targeting ROR2 in patients with recurrent or metastatic squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck. The poster presented data showing an overall response rate of 32% among heavily pretreated patients, with one complete response and several partial responses. Importantly, patients also experienced a 77% disease control rate. The treatment was well tolerated, and most side effects were low-grade. These early signs of anti-tumor activity highlight the potential of this targeted therapy for a patient group with limited treatment options. BioAtla plans to meet with the FDA later this year to further explore a potential registrational trial for this promising new treatment option.

AI Summary
BioAtla, Inc. presented a poster titled "Characterization of Mutated KRAS Genotype and Clinical Outcomes in Patients With Advanced NSCLC Treated With Mecbotamab Vedotin, a CAB-AXL-ADC" at the IASLC 2024 Hot Topic in Basic & Translational Science Meeting on December 14, 2024. The study focused on patients with advanced non‐small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) and found that those with mutated KRAS had much better outcomes when treated with Mecbotamab Vedotin. Specifically, 58% of patients with mutated KRAS were alive after one year compared to only 23% of patients with wild-type KRAS.
The poster also highlighted antitumor activity across nine different mutated KRAS variants and confirmed that high AXL expression is strongly associated with mutated KRAS tumors. These promising results suggest that Mecbotamab Vedotin may offer a new treatment option for patients with advanced NSCLC, with further trials planned for 2025.
