Building On Success In 2025, Ateganosine Continues Moving Forward. MAIA has been conducting the Phase 2 THIO-101 trial, testing ateganosine (also known as THIO) in combination with cemiplimab, a checkpoint inhibitor. The trial is now in its third stage after the data showed meaningful improvements in median survival, overall response rates, and disease control rate. Separately, a Phase 3 trial has begun. Based on the reported results, we believe both trials have a high probability of success and could lead to FDA approvals.

Phase 2 THIO-101 Could Support Early Approval. The THIO-101 trial was designed with three stages. Part A confirmed safety and tolerabity, while Part B tested three doses to determine the optimal dosing regimen. In December 2025, the Part C Expansion/Registration stage began. This is an open-label arm designed to determine the Overall Response Rate (ORR). Positive data could lead to an application for Early Approval from the FDA.
