BioNTech SE and announced the first interim data from a global randomized Phase 2 trial (NCT06449222) evaluating pumitamig (BNT327/BMS986545), an investigational bispecific antibody targeting PD-L1 and VEGF-A, plus chemotherapy in patients with locally advanced/metastatic triple-negative breast cancer ("TNBC") irrespective of PD-L1 expression levels. Bristol Myers Squibb Company
AI Summary
BioNTech and Bristol Myers Squibb reported interim results from a global Phase 2 trial of pumitamig (BNT327/BMS986545), a bispecific antibody that targets PD-L1 and VEGF‑A, given with chemotherapy for locally advanced or metastatic triple‑negative breast cancer (TNBC) regardless of PD‑L1 status. Among 39 efficacy‑evaluable first‑ and second‑line patients in Cohort 1, confirmed objective response rate (cORR) was 61.5%, unconfirmed ORR (uORR) was 71.8%, and disease control rate (DCR) was 92.3%. Responses were seen across PD‑L1 levels and lines of therapy; higher dose (20 mg/kg) showed greater response than 15 mg/kg (uORR 80.0% vs 63.2%). The 9‑month progression‑free survival rate was 59.3%.
The combination had a manageable safety profile across chemotherapy regimens. Grade ≥3 treatment‑related adverse events occurred in about 38–43% of patients, with no pumitamig‑related deaths. These data support ongoing development, including dose selection for the pivotal Phase 3 ROSETTA BREAST‑01 trial, and will be presented at SABCS 2025.

Announcement
BioNTech and Bristol Myers Squibb announced that the companies have entered into an agreement for the global co-development and co-commercialization of BioNTech's investigational bispecific antibody BNT327 across numerous solid tumor types.
AI Summary
BioNTech and Bristol Myers Squibb have announced a global partnership to co-develop and co-commercialize BioNTech’s investigational bispecific antibody BNT327 for various solid tumor types. BNT327, which targets both PD-L1 and VEGF-A, is designed to boost the immune system’s ability to fight cancer while also hindering tumor blood vessel growth. The companies will share profits and losses equally and combine their expertise and resources to accelerate the clinical development and potential regulatory approvals of this innovative therapy. With over 1,000 patients already treated across several trials, BNT327 is currently being evaluated as a standalone treatment and in combination with other therapies. This strategic collaboration aims to expand treatment options and potentially set a new standard of care in oncology by addressing a broad range of solid tumors.
