Phase 2 Part A Safety Data Shows Safety and Tolerability. MAIA Biotechnology reported positive safety data from the Part A safety stage of the THIO-101 trial. The dose tested was safe and well tolerated, consistent with our expectations. We expect the trial to continue with the dose-finding Part B phase, with data late in the year.

THIO-101 Trial Announced First Safety Data. THIO-101 is a Phase 2 study testing THIO in combination with Libtayo, an anti-PD1 checkpoint inhibitor (cemipliumab, from Regeneron, Not Rated). This uses THIO’s direct cytotoxic action to kill cancer cells and stimulate an immune response followed by Libtayo’s action as a checkpoint inhibitor to kill remaining cancer cells.

MAIA Biotechnology (MAIA) – Initiating Coverage With A $14 Price Target

MAIA is a targeted therapy, immuno-oncology company focused on the development and commercialization of potential first-in-class drugs with novel mechanisms of action that are intended to meaningfully improve and extend the lives of people with cancer.

THIO Is A First-In-Class Cancer Therapeutic With A Dual Mechanism Of Action. MAIA Biotechnology is in Phase 2 development with THIO, a drug directed at the telomeres of cancer cell chromosomes. These are structures at the distal tips of the chromosomes that protect the coding DNA regions and have functions needed for DNA replication. THIO is a modified nucleoside analogue that targets the chromosome’s telomeres, leading to cell death, and stimulates the immune system to attack remaining cancer cells.

THIO Is Phase 2 With A Checkpoint Inhibitor.  The direct killing and stimulation of an immune response increases the number of immune killing cells in the tumor that can attack remaining cancer cells. Preclinical studies testing THIO in combination with checkpoint inhibitors showed complete killing and long-term durability of its effects. The current Phase 2 clinical trial program is testing THIO in combination with Libtayo, a PD-1 inhibitor from Regeneron, in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).
