Second Quarter Reported With Trial Progress. MAIA reported a 2Q23 loss of $(4.5) million or $(0.35) per share, consistent with our expectations. The company gave updates to its Phase 2 THIO-101 clinical trial testing THIO in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), including continued enrollment and survival of patients treated to date. Cash as of June 30, 2023 was $9.1 million.

THIO-101 Trial Update. The THIO-101 trial tests THIO in combination with Libtayo, (cemiplimab, a PD-1 checkpoint inhibitor from Regeneron) giving two mechanisms of action against the cancer cell. Patients in the trial have progressive or relapsing non-small cell lung cancer after being treated with a checkpoint inhibitor. As of July 2023, 35 patients have been enrolled, an increase over the 29 patients last reported in June 2023. We expect top-line Overall Response Rate data in late fall (3Q/4Q) 2023.
