LIXTE Biotechnology Holdings has initiated its first clinical trial in Spain to evaluate the effectiveness of LB-100 in enhancing the cytotoxic effects of chemotherapy for patients with advanced soft tissue sarcoma (ASTS). Conducted by the Spanish Sarcoma Research Group (GEIS), the trial will commence at Fundación Jiménez Díaz University Hospital in Madrid, with additional sites planned in Valencia and Barcelona.
The Phase 1b trial aims to identify the recommended phase 2 dose and will involve approximately 150 patients randomized to receive either doxorubicin alone or in combination with LB-100. Completion is expected within nine months, paving the way for a subsequent Phase 3 trial.
CEO John S. Kovach expressed optimism about assessing LB-100's potential in improving treatment outcomes for ASTS, emphasizing the critical need for effective therapies.
LIXTE Biotechnology Holdings announced a significant step in its Phase 1b clinical trial for LB-100, a first-in-class protein phosphatase 2A inhibitor, to enhance treatment for extensive stage small cell lung cancer (ED-SCLC).
The Sarah Cannon Research Institute (SCRI) at Tennessee Oncology will now participate in the trial, led by notable oncologists.
John S. Kovach, M.D., emphasized that SCRI's involvement will accelerate patient recruitment, potentially demonstrating LB-100's efficacy in improving treatment outcomes for this aggressive cancer.
LIXTE Biotechnology Holdings has reported new insights on its lead clinical compound, LB-100, demonstrating that deficiency in PP2A can enhance the efficacy of immune checkpoint blockers in cancer treatment. An article published in The Journal of Clinical Investigation outlines a previously unappreciated mechanism linking PP2A to immunosuppression in tumors. CEO John S. Kovach highlighted the potential of LB-100 in immunotherapy, particularly for extensive stage small cell lung cancer, where a clinical trial is currently recruiting participants. This study aims to evaluate LB-100's effectiveness in conjunction with chemotherapy and immune blockers.
