NEW YORK, Oct. 21, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- BeyondSpring (the “Company” or “BeyondSpring”) (NASDAQ: BYSI), a global pharmaceutical company focused on the development of cancer therapeutics, announced the first patient has been treated in an investigator-initiated, open-label Phase 2 study with lead asset plinabulin in combination with nivolumab + ipilimumab in patients with 3rd line recurrent small-cell lung cancer (SCLC) who failed checkpoint inhibitors and platinum-based chemotherapy. Plinabulin is a selective immunomodulating microtubule-binding agent (SIMBA), which is a potent antigen presenting cell (APC) inducer. This Phase 2 study, to be conducted through the Big Ten Cancer Research Consortium in 7 U.S. clinical centers, comes after the successful completion of the Phase 1 dose escalation study portion of this Phase 1/2 study.

Key Points: 
  • In the Phase 1 study, plinabulin combination was able to induce tumor responses in patients who had progressed on platinum and checkpoint inhibitors, with 43% ORR (3 partial responses with tumor reduction >50%).
  • This Phase 2 study, to be conducted through the Big Ten Cancer Research Consortium in 7 U.S. clinical centers, comes after the successful completion of the Phase 1 dose escalation study portion of this Phase 1/2 study.
  • For patients with extensive stage SCLC who failed chemo and checkpoint inhibitors, effective treatment options are limited.
  • In the Phase 1 study, the addition of plinabulin to nivolumab + ipilimumab was able to induce tumor responses in patients who failed chemotherapy and checkpoint inhibitors with ORR at 43%, double the ORR of nivolumab + ipilimumab in Checkmate 032.
