PDS Biotechnology (Nasdaq: PDSB) announced that the National Cancer Institute will present three abstracts at the 2025 Society for Immunotherapy of Cancer (SITC) Annual Meeting on Nov 7–8, 2025. The presentations report clinical and translational findings for the company’s platforms, including the tumor-targeting IL-12 fused ADC PDS01ADC and HPV-targeted immunotherapy PDS0101. One abstract is a rapid oral session on early serum proteomic changes predicting anti-tumor activity; two posters report increases in peripheral NK cells and memory T cells after IL-12 immunocytokine therapy.
PDS Biotech (Nasdaq: PDSB) requested an FDA meeting on Oct 29, 2025 to pursue an expedited approval pathway for PDS0101 in HPV16-positive head and neck cancer after final VERSATILE-002 results.
Key data: median progression-free survival (mPFS) 6.3 months and median overall survival (mOS) 39.3 months. The company proposed amending the VERSATILE-003 Phase 3 protocol to add PFS as an earlier primary endpoint, reduce enrolled patient numbers while maintaining statistical power, and enable a potential accelerated approval if PFS is met. While the amendment is under FDA review, enrollment in VERSATILE-003 is temporarily paused but treatment for enrolled patients will continue.
PDS Biotech (Nasdaq: PDSB) announced breakthrough results from its VERSATILE-002 Phase 2 clinical trial, showing exceptional survival outcomes for head and neck cancer patients with low PD-L1 expression. The combination of PDS0101 with Keytruda® achieved a remarkable median overall survival (mOS) of 29.5 months in patients with CPS 1-19, significantly outperforming current standards of care.
The results are particularly significant as they demonstrate nearly triple the survival time compared to Keytruda® alone (10.8 months) or Keytruda® plus chemotherapy (12.3 months) in this difficult-to-treat patient population. Approximately 60% of enrolled patients (n=53) had low PD-L1 expression, with 32 patients in the CPS 1-19 cohort showing these remarkable results.
PDS Biotechnology (NASDAQ: PDSB), a late-stage immunotherapy company focused on cancer treatment, announced its participation in the upcoming H.C. Wainwright 27th Annual Global Investment Conference. The event will be held both in-person in New York and virtually from September 8-10, 2025.

PDS Biotechnology (Nasdaq: PDSB) has announced final topline survival data from its VERSATILE-002 Phase 2 clinical trial evaluating PDS0101 + Keytruda® in HPV16-positive first-line recurrent/metastatic head and neck cancer patients. The study demonstrated a remarkable median overall survival (mOS) of 39.3 months in patients with CPS ≥ 1, significantly outperforming the best published standard of care result of 17.9 months.
The trial enrolled 53 patients and showed durable patient survival promoted by high levels of long-lasting HPV16-specific CD8+ T cells. The treatment combination was well-tolerated with no patients discontinuing due to treatment-related adverse events. The company plans to publish the full dataset later this year, while its VERSATILE-003 Phase 3 trial is currently in progress.

PDS Biotechnology (NASDAQ:PDSB) announced successful completion of Stage 1 in their Phase 2 clinical trial for PDS01ADC in metastatic colorectal cancer patients. The trial, conducted in collaboration with the National Cancer Institute (NCI), met the pre-set RECIST v1.1 criteria for expansion into Stage 2, achieving at least 6 objective responses among 9 participants.
The study combines PDS01ADC with floxuridine (FUDR) administered via hepatic artery infusion pump. The trial includes three cohorts: metastatic colorectal cancer, cholangiocarcinoma, and adrenocortical cancer. Following this milestone, the colorectal cancer cohort will expand enrollment to 22 participants, with completion expected by Q4 2025.
PDS01ADC is a novel antibody drug conjugate targeting exposed DNA in tumor necrosis regions, designed to deliver IL-12 with minimal systemic exposure and reduced toxicity.
