Candel Therapeutics reveals new data showing better outcomes for glioma patients using CAN-2409
Candel Therapeutics Inc (NASDAQ:CADL) shared promising results from a Phase 1b clinical trial testing its experimental cancer therapy, CAN-2409, in patients with newly diagnosed high-grade glioma—a particularly aggressive form of brain cancer. The study, published in Neuro-Oncology, found that CAN-2409, when combined with the immunotherapy drug nivolumab and standard treatments like surgery, radiation, and chemotherapy, was well tolerated and showed signs of boosting the immune system's response to tumors.

Candel Therapeutics Reports Both Prolonged Median Overall Survival and Long Tail of Survival in Phase 2a Clinical Trial of CAN-2409 in Advanced Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) Patients Non-Responsive to Immune Checkpoint Inhibitor (ICI) Treatment
NEEDHAM, Mass., March 26, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Candel Therapeutics, Inc. (Candel or the Company) (Nasdaq: CADL), a clinical stage biopharmaceutical company focused on developing multimodal biological immunotherapies to help patients fight cancer, today announced final survival data from a phase 2a clinical trial of CAN-2409 in patients with stage III/IV NSCLC, inadequately responding to ICI treatment. mOS was 24.5 months in 46 evaluable patients receiving 2 courses of CAN-2409 (per protocol population; cohort 1 and 2) and 21.5 months in evaluable patients from cohort 2 (n=41) that presented with progressive disease at baseline, despite ICI treatment. mOS in patients with progressive disease despite ICI treatment, was 9.8-11.8 months in other studies, including those with standard of care of docetaxel chemotherapy, which has a very poor prognosis, did not exceed 12 months in other published studies.(1, 2 ) This final analysis included extended follow-up data (1 year after the previous data cut) with a median follow up time for the per protocol population of 32.4 months. Data showed a sizable percentage of patients with survival exceeding 24 months, evidence of a long tail of survival, with 37% of patients with progressive disease despite treatment with ICI alive 2 years after CAN-2409 administration.
