Strasbourg, France, July 21, 2016, 6:00 pm CET – Transgene (Euronext Paris: TNG), a company focused on designing and developing targeted immunotherapies for the treatment of cancer and infectious diseases, today announced that the Safety Review Committee of the Phase 1/1b trial with TG1050, Transgene’s immunotherapy product candidate for the treatment of chronic hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection, has recommended that the study should continue.
Maud Brandely, Chief Medical Officer of Transgene, said: “We are pleased to be continuing the development of our internally discovered and developed immunotherapy TG1050. The Phase 1/1b trial is progressing well with no severe adverse events observed. We are now moving ahead with the enrollment of the multiple dose cohorts of this study. Chronic hepatitis B is a major unmet medical need, and with TG1050, we are looking to provide a much more-effective treatment that is urgently needed for this viral liver disease, which can lead to cirrhosis and liver cancer.”
This first-in-man trial is an international, randomized, multi-center, double-blind, placebo-controlled study evaluating TG1050 in patients who are currently being treated for chronic HBV infection with standard-of-care antiviral therapy.
