Atossa Therapeutics has proposed a groundbreaking Phase 3 clinical study called SMART 2.0 at the AACR 2025 Annual Meeting. The study aims to investigate (Z)-endoxifen, a Selective Estrogen Receptor Modulator (SERM), for reducing interval breast cancer in high-risk women.
Key highlights:
- The study targets interval breast cancers, which occur between regular mammography screenings and are typically more aggressive
- Low-dose (1mg) Z-endoxifen reduced mammographic density by nearly 20% at six months in Phase 2 KARISMA trial
- Side effects were not statistically different from placebo
- The proposed trial will use AI Risk modeling to identify and randomize participants
- Primary endpoint: measuring reduction in interval breast cancer incidence over two years
This research represents a potential advancement in breast cancer prevention, offering a safer alternative to existing treatments like tamoxifen.
Atossa Therapeutics (NASDAQ: ATOS) has been granted a new U.S. Patent (No. 12,275,684) by the USPTO for enteric oral formulations of (Z)-endoxifen and related treatment methods.

Atossa Therapeutics (NASDAQ: ATOS) has announced its strategic focus on developing (Z)-endoxifen for metastatic breast cancer treatment, while simultaneously pursuing additional indications with FDA guidance.
Early clinical trials have shown promising results, with (Z)-endoxifen demonstrating:
- More than doubled median progression-free survival compared to tamoxifen (7.2 vs. 2.4 months) in CDK4/6i-naïve patients
- Clinical benefits in patients who progressed on tamoxifen, including partial responses and stable disease lasting 2-3 years
- Favorable safety profile comparable to tamoxifen
The company is also advancing additional indications including breast cancer prevention and neoadjuvant therapy. In early-stage patients, (Z)-endoxifen maintained a Ki-67 ≤10% response rate above 85% across all dose levels, suggesting effective tumor proliferation reduction.

The EVANGELINE trial showed promising results in its pharmacokinetic run-in phase, with 50% of patients receiving 80mg (Z)-endoxifen with goserelin reaching target steady-state plasma concentrations. The I-SPY 2 Endocrine Optimization Pilot demonstrated 95% treatment compliance, with a 69% reduction in Ki-67 and 30.4% reduction in functional tumor volume after three weeks.

Atossa Therapeutics (NASDAQ: ATOS) endorses the U.S. Surgeon General's Advisory highlighting alcohol as a major preventable cause of breast cancer. The Advisory reveals that alcohol contributes to nearly 100,000 cancer cases and 20,000 cancer deaths annually in the US, making it the third leading preventable cause of cancer after tobacco and obesity.
Breast cancer represents the largest portion of alcohol-related cancers in women, accounting for 44,180 cases annually (16.4% of all breast cancer diagnoses). The risk begins to rise with as little as one drink per day, yet less than 45% of Americans believe alcohol significantly affects cancer development.
The Advisory calls for updated health warning labels on alcoholic beverages, expanded public education efforts, and implementation of proven alcohol reduction strategies in cancer prevention initiatives.
