NovaBridge Biosciences has announced the initiation of a global, randomized Phase 2 clinical study evaluating givastomig, a Claudin 18.2 x 4-1BB bispecific antibody, in combination with nivolumab and chemotherapy (mFOLFOX6) in patients with first-line (1L) metastatic HER2-negative gastric cancer. The Phase 2 trial follows positive Phase 1b results, which demonstrated a 75% objective response rate and a median progression-free survival of 16.9 months. Top line results from the Phase 2 study are expected in 2027, and updated results from the Phase 1b dose expansion study are anticipated in the second half of this year.
