- “We’ve steadily advanced the VGT-309 clinical program and look forward to sharing the latest results from our Phase 2 study evaluating the safety, efficacy, and dosing of this novel compound,” said John Santini, Ph.D., president and chief executive officer at Vergent Bioscience.
- “VGT-309 has the potential to fill deficits in tumor visualization during surgery to optimize outcomes for patients.”
Early Phase 1 and 2 clinical trials evaluating VGT-309 in lung cancer yielded compelling safety and efficacy data that support the agent’s ability to help surgeons see difficult-to-find or previously undetected tumors in real-time, ensuring all tumor tissue is removed during minimally invasive (MIS) and robotic-assisted surgical procedures. - Following are details about the VGT-309 presentation at the 2023 WCLC:
