  • Data update from AFM24-101 phase 1/2 monotherapy study includes 15 patients from the EGFR mutant non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cohort
  • AFM24 showed clinical activity in 7 out of 15 heavily pre-treated patients with tumor reductions, including 2 confirmed partial responses and 5 patients exhibiting stable disease
  • In line with previous results, the majority of patients experienced only mild to moderate treatment-related adverse events, confirming a well-manageable safety profile in heavily pretreated patients, an important factor for combination regimens
  • Based on the totality of data available to date, Affimed will focus clinical development of AFM24 on combination approaches, adding an EGFR mutant NSCLC cohort to the AFM24-102 study to evaluate therapeutic potential in combination with Roche’s PD-L1 checkpoint inhibitor atezolizumab
  • Company to host a conference call / webcast today at 6:00 p.m. CDT / 7:00 p.m. EDT to discuss the latest data and AFM24 development strategy for moving forward with the combination approach
