- Indication:
- Leptomeningeal brain tumors
Announcement
Mustang Bio, Inc announced that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration ("FDA") has granted Orphan Drug Designation to Mustang for MB-101 (IL13Ra2-targeted CAR T-cells) for the treatment of recurrent diffuse and anaplastic astrocytoma (astrocytomas) and glioblastoma (GBM).
AI Summary
Mustang Bio, Inc. announced that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration has granted Orphan Drug Designation to its MB-101 therapy. MB-101 is an IL13Ra2-targeted CAR T-cell treatment aimed at recurrent diffuse and anaplastic astrocytomas as well as glioblastoma (GBM). This designation is given for drugs intended to treat rare diseases affecting fewer than 200,000 people in the United States. It offers valuable benefits, including tax credits for clinical trials, waiver of prescription drug user fees, and seven years of market exclusivity if the treatment is approved.
The grant validates Mustang Bio’s scientific approach and supports their ongoing efforts to develop MB-101 as a potential treatment for difficult-to-treat brain tumors. The company is keen on advancing this therapy, which may work even better when paired with their MB-108 oncolytic virus for patients battling malignant glioma and other high-grade astrocytomas.

Announcement
Mustang Bio, Inc. announced that updated data from the ongoing Phase 1/2 clinical trial of MB-106, a CD20-targeted, autologous CAR T-cell therapy, show a favorable safety and efficacy profile in patients with Waldenstrom macroglobulinemia ("WM"), a rare form of blood cancer.
AI Summary
Mustang Bio, Inc. announced encouraging new data from its ongoing Phase 1/2 clinical trial of MB-106, a CD20-targeted, autologous CAR T-cell therapy. The treatment showed a favorable safety and efficacy profile in patients with Waldenstrom macroglobulinemia (WM), a rare blood cancer. In this small study, 90% of the patients responded to treatment, with three achieving complete responses, including one patient who has remained in complete remission for 31 months. The patients, all of whom had been heavily pretreated and refractory to BTK inhibitors, exhibited durable responses. Only one patient required additional anti-WM treatment after MB-106, and the therapy was feasible for outpatient administration. These promising findings highlight MB-106’s potential as a treatment option for WM, a field where no FDA-approved CAR T-cell treatments currently exist.

Announcement
Moleculin Biotech, Inc., reported additional efficacy findings from the Company's ongoing Phase 1B/2 (MB-106) clinical trial evaluating Annamycin in combination with Cytarabine (also known as "Ara-C" and for which the combination of Annamycin and Ara-C is referred to as AnnAraC) for the treatment of subjects with acute myeloid leukemia (AML).
AI Summary
Moleculin Biotech, Inc. has released new efficacy findings from its ongoing Phase 1B/2 (MB-106) trial testing Annamycin combined with Cytarabine (AnnAraC) for treating acute myeloid leukemia (AML). In the study, 22 subjects were enrolled and 20 completed efficacy evaluations. Of these patients, 45% achieved a composite complete remission (CRc), including both complete remission (CR) and CR with incomplete blood count recovery (CRi). Notably, 89% of the CRc group had poor prognosis cytogenetics or mutations. In second line treatment, AnnAraC achieved an estimated median overall survival of about 6 months, with a similarly rising median durability of response for CRc patients. Importantly, the trial demonstrated no cardiotoxicity, and the combination was generally well tolerated, supporting its potential as a promising treatment option for AML patients.

Announcement
Moleculin Biotech, Inc today reported positive topline efficacy results from its completed U.S. Phase 1B/2 clinical trial evaluating Annamycin for the treatment of soft tissue sarcoma lung metastases ("STS lung mets") (MB-107).
AI Summary
Moleculin Biotech, Inc. today announced encouraging topline efficacy results from its U.S. Phase 1B/2 trial (MB-107) for Annamycin in treating soft tissue sarcoma lung metastases. The trial, which used a single-agent approach, established both the Maximum Tolerable Dose and the Recommended Phase 2 Dose while also evaluating safety and effectiveness. In the study, the clinical benefit rate was 59.4% among participants, with many patients showing stable disease and one achieving a partial response. Notably, patients who responded after two cycles experienced improvements in overall survival and progression-free survival, with some achieving approximately 4 months of progression-free survival and 20 months of overall survival. These results suggest that Annamycin could provide a valuable new treatment option, especially for patients who have undergone multiple prior chemotherapy regimens.

AI Summary
Moleculin Biotech, Inc. announced that it remains on track to treat the first patient in its pivotal, adaptive Phase 3 clinical trial—known as the “MIRACLE” trial—in the first quarter of 2025. This study is designed to evaluate the combination of Annamycin and Cytarabine for treating relapsed or refractory acute myeloid leukemia, a form of cancer where patients do not respond to initial treatment.
The global trial, which includes clinical sites in the United States, Europe, and the Middle East, is set to enroll its first patient on schedule. The study protocol allows for an early unblinding of efficacy and safety data after 45 subjects, helping to guide further development steps. Moleculin’s commitment to swift enrollment and careful trial management supports its goals for a timely and effective study execution.
