BriaCell Therapeutics (TSX:BCT) has provided an update on its Phase 3 study of Bria-IMT in combination with immune check point inhibitor on metastatic breast cancer (MBC).

In a news release Tuesday, the company stated the study will enroll up to 354 patients, with enrollment expected to be completed by mid-2025.

The primary endpoint of the study is overall survival with Bria-IMT regimen plus check point inhibitor versus treatment of a physician’s choice.

“We are very pleased to report that patient enrollment is on track for expected completion by mid-2025,” William V. Williams, CEO of BriaCell Therapeutics, said in a statement. We anticipate the interim data analysis of the ongoing pivotal Phase 3 study will confirm the effectiveness of the Bria-IMT combination regimen in patients with metastatic breast cancer who failed approved therapies.”

Interim data will be analyzed when 144 deaths have occurred in order to compare the overall survival in patients who have been treated with the Bria-IMT combination regimen versus those treated with a physician’s choice as the primary endpoint.

Results from the study are vital in receiving full approval and marketing of Bria-IMT in MBC patients.

As it stands, 35 clinical sites – 18 main and 17 satellite – are enrolling patients in the study, with additional sites in various stages of start-up.

Bria-IMT is the company’s Phase 3 lead candidate and is a patented, off-the-shelf, cell-based, targeted immunotherapy that activates the patient’s immune system to target and kill cancer cells without harming other cells. 

With headquarters out of Vancouver, BriaCell Therapeutics is a clinical-stage biotechnology company focused on developing novel immunotherapies to treat cancer.

Shares of BriaCell Therapeutics (TSX:BCT) are up 4.13 per cent to C$0.93 as of 12:15 pm ET.
