−Removed: Description of Our Business
−Removed: Actinium Pharmaceuticals, Inc.
−Removed: (“Actinium” or the “Company”)
−Removed: develops targeted radiotherapies intended to meaningfully improve survival for patients with relapsed or refractory cancer who have failed
−Removed: existing therapies.
−Removed: Our vision is to build a specialty, hospital-focused, radiotherapeutics company that develops and markets medicines
−Removed: for patients who are treated primarily in large quaternary care hospitals and their catchment areas.
−Removed: We are deploying our technology platform,
−Removed: which we believe to be industry-leading, and intellectual property, with over 230 issued and pending patents worldwide, to develop ARCs,
−Removed: or Antibody Radiation Conjugates, and next-generation radiotherapies against validated cancer targets.
−Removed: Pipeline Highlights
−Removed: We intend to leverage the
−Removed: clinical data of our lead product candidates, Iomab-B and Actimab-A, to potentially improve outcomes in patients with relapsed or refractory
−Removed: acute myeloid leukemia (“r/r AML”) by launching two radiotherapy drugs over the next several years to address the significant
−Removed: unmet need for better outcomes from treatment with therapeutics or from undergoing a bone marrow transplant (“BMT”).
−Removed: We also intend to further advance Iomab-B beyond acute myeloid leukemia
−Removed: (“AML”), based on promising data as a disease control and conditioning agent for various other blood cancers.
−Removed: Based on early
−Removed: clinical trial results, we are also working on a next-generation conditioning program, Iomab-ACT, for rapidly growing cell and gene therapies.
−Removed: Our Next Generation ARC Pipeline
−Removed: AML is an aggressive, heterogeneous disease that is difficult to treat.
−Removed: Over 50% of AML patients develop relapsed or refractory disease within one year of being afflicted and have an extremely poor prognosis
−Removed: and dismal survival.
−Removed: Currently, a BMT is regarded as being able to provide the best treatment outcome and is the only curative regimen
−Removed: available for AML patients, however, access is limited to less than 20% of all AML patients, as patients must be fit enough to withstand
−Removed: the challenges associated with this treatment.
−Removed: The majority of AML patients are considered not transplantable in routine clinical practice
−Removed: as they are not fit enough to withstand the rigors of the patient journey, which includes therapy to attain a remission, conditioning
−Removed: regimens to destroy diseased marrow, the challenge of the transplant itself or post-transplant complications.
−Removed: Our Iomab-B and Actimab-A product candidates have the potential to
−Removed: fill the major unmet medical needs in r/r AML in a complementary fashion as they are directed at different parts of the patient journey.
−Removed: Iomab-B, an ARC that is comprised of the anti-CD45 apamistamab and the radioisotope iodine-131 (“I-131”), is being developed
−Removed: as a targeted bridging therapy candidate that we believe could provide both disease control and conditioning in one agent.
−Removed: the results from our Phase 3 Study of Iomab-B in Elderly Relapsed or Refractor AML “SIERRA trial” demonstrate the possibility
−Removed: for unprecedented access to a BMT and improved survival in unfit patients who are currently not considered transplantable in routine clinical
−Removed: We are developing Actimab-A, an ARC comprised of the anti-CD33 lintuzumab and the radioisotope actinium-225 (“Ac-225”),
−Removed: as a targeted therapy candidate for fit patients.
−Removed: Actimab-A has demonstrated an extension in survival in a proof-of-concept study and
−Removed: is poised for advanced development and program expansion in collaboration with the National Cancer Institute (“NCI”).
−Removed: we believe these two product candidates could provide us the opportunity to transform the treatment of AML, especially in the relapsed
−Removed: and refractory segment which represents over 50% of AML patients.
−Removed: Iomab-B was evaluated in
−Removed: the randomized SIERRA trial and met the primary endpoint of durable Complete Remission (“dCR”) with a high degree of
−Removed: statistical significance (p<0.0001).
−Removed: In February 2023, we announced full SIERRA trial results, demonstrating unprecedented
−Removed: transplant access and improved outcomes in patients with r/r AML, with double 1-year and median overall survival (“OS”)
−Removed: compared to control-arm patients.
−Removed: These data were presented at the 2023 Tandem Meetings aka the Transplantation & Cellular
−Removed: Therapy (“TCT”) Meetings of the American Society for Transplantation and Cellular Therapy (“ASTCT”) and the
−Removed: Center for International Blood & Marrow Transplant Research (“CIBMTR”).
−Removed: We believe these results from the SIERRA
−Removed: trial may provide the opportunity, if we are able to obtain U.S.
−Removed: Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) approval, to
−Removed: establish Iomab-B as a potential new standard of care.
−Removed: The results from the SIERRA trial have been and are expected to be
−Removed: presented at the most prestigious and high-impact bone marrow transplant and hematology medical conferences, nuclear medicine conferences
−Removed: and nursing congresses.
−Removed: This wide exposure is helping broaden the awareness of Iomab-B among members of these relevant medical and scientific
−Removed: communities as we and our partner Immedica Pharma AB (“Immedica”) prepare for potential commercialization in the US and European,
−Removed: Middle East and North Africa (“EUMENA”) region subject to FDA and marketing authorization application (“MAA”)
−Removed: approvals, respectively.
−Removed: Including TCT, the SIERRA Phase 3 results have now been highlighted in oral presentations at several U.S.
−Removed: European bone marrow transplant, hematology, nuclear medicine and nursing conferences attended by key Iomab-B stakeholders, including
−Removed: bone marrow transplant physicians, hematologists and nuclear medicine physicians.
−Removed: Iomab-B SIERRA trial d ata
−Removed: presentations include:
−Removed: Society for Blood and Marrow Transplantation (“EBMT”) Annual Meeting, 2023 and
−Removed: Nursing Society (“ONS”) 48 th Annual Congress, April 2023
−Removed: Hematology Association (“EHA”) 2023 Hybrid Congress, June 2023
−Removed: for Nuclear Medicine and Molecule Imaging (“SNMMI”) Annual Meeting, June 2023
−Removed: Association of Nuclear Medicine (“EANM”) 2023 Congress, September 2023
−Removed: of Hematologic Oncology (“SOHO”) 2023 Annual Meeting, September 2023
−Removed: Annual American Society of Hematology (“ASH”) Meeting & Exposition,
−Removed: December 2023
−Removed: and 2024 Tandem Meetings | Transplantation & Cellular Therapy Meetings of ASTCT and CIBMTR
−Removed: We believe that the medical
−Removed: and scientific communities present at these events took note of the positive SIERRA clinical trial results and their potential positive
−Removed: impact in treating elderly r/r AML patients, the safety and tolerability of Iomab-B and the successful administration of Iomab-B infusions
−Removed: at various BMT centers, which was done without increasing radiation exposure risks to treating nursing staff.
−Removed: The SIERRA results were
−Removed: awarded the Henry N.
−Removed: Wagner, Jr., Abstract of the Year award at SNMMI, representing the top selection out of more than 1,500 abstracts
−Removed: accepted for presentation, which we believe highlights the recognition by the nuclear medicine community.
−Removed: Iomab-B SIERRA trial data
−Removed: presented in an oral presentation at ASH in December 2023 detailed survival outcomes of patients with a TP53 mutation enrolled in the
−Removed: SIERRA trial, highlighting improved survival in patients who received Iomab-B.
−Removed: A total of 37 patients (24.2%) enrolled in the SIERRA trial
−Removed: had a TP53 mutation with 17 patients randomized to the Iomab-B arm and 20 patients randomized to the control arm of the study.
−Removed: OS for TP53 negative patients receiving Iomab-B was 6.37 months and 5.72 months for TP53 positive patients.
−Removed: In the control arm (including
−Removed: crossover patients), the median OS for TP53 positive patients was 2.96 months.
−Removed: Iomab-B was shown to significantly improve outcomes in
−Removed: TP53 positive patients (initial randomization and crossover patients) with a median OS of 5.49 months versus 1.66 months in patients that
−Removed: did not receive Iomab-B (hazard ratio 0.23, p-value=0.0002).
−Removed: These results for patients with a TP53 mutation were also accepted for oral
−Removed: presentation at the EBMT 50 th Annual Meeting in Glasgow, UK to be held on April 14 through April 17, 2024.
−Removed: Most recently, at
−Removed: the 2024 Tandem Meetings held from February 21 through February 24, 2024, in San Antonio, Texas, five abstracts were accepted for two
−Removed: oral presentations and three poster presentations.
−Removed: Two posters detailed results and findings from the SIERRA trial of Iomab-B, including
−Removed: outcomes in patients with a TP53 mutation and dosimetry details and another poster for a Phase 1 study demonstrating safety and lymphodepletion
−Removed: from Iomab-ACT conditioning with CD19 CAR-T therapy.
−Removed: In an oral presentation, data from the SIERRA trial highlighted the outcomes and
−Removed: safety of Iomab-B in patients 65 years and older that were similar to what we presented for the overall SIERRA population, and the second
−Removed: oral presentation highlighted unprecedented BMT engraftment in patients receiving a therapeutic dose of Iomab-B, and demonstration of
−Removed: successful donor chimerism was presented.
−Removed: The data presented from the SIERRA trial highlight the opportunity for Iomab-B to provide better
−Removed: access and outcomes in these hard-to-treat sub-groups, including patients with a TP53 mutation and those 65 years of age and older.
−Removed: We continue to advance our efforts
−Removed: to file our Biologics License Application (“BLA”) for Iomab-B to the FDA and support Immedica, our EUMENA commercial partner,
−Removed: with the MAA for Iomab-B with the European Medicines Agency (“EMA”).
−Removed: We conducted a successful meeting with the FDA where
−Removed: we received positive feedback regarding our Chemistry, Manufacturing and Controls (“CMC”) package for Iomab-B and have been
−Removed: assigned a BLA number.
−Removed: We have also submitted a meeting request with the FDA to continue to discuss the clinical and non-clinical sections
−Removed: of our BLA package prior to submitting our BLA filing and expect to hold this meeting in the second quarter of 2024.
−Removed: As part of the MAA
−Removed: filing process, Immedica has conducted meetings to review the SIERRA trial clinical and CMC data with its rapporteur and co-rapporteur,
−Removed: representatives of EU member states designated to lead the evaluation of an MAA application, and following those meetings Immedica is
−Removed: proceeding with its MAA filing for Iomab-B.
−Removed: Based on our current assumptions, we believe we may be able to receive regulatory approval
−Removed: for Iomab-B in 2025.
−Removed: We are committed to working to bring Iomab-B to patients globally, as there are a significant number of patients
−Removed: with r/r AML globally.
−Removed: Europe represents a large commercial market opportunity with approximately twice as many transplants performed
−Removed: compared to the United States.
−Removed: We also plan to seek approvals in Canada, Latin America and the Asia-Pacific region following U.S.
−Removed: approval, either ourselves or in collaboration with potential future partners.
−Removed: We are also working on a next-generation
−Removed: conditioning program, Iomab-ACT, for the rapidly growing cell and gene therapy market.
−Removed: We have a National Institutes of Health (“NIH”)-funded
−Removed: ongoing proof-of-concept study with Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (“MSKCC”) using single agent Iomab-ACT as conditioning
−Removed: in place of traditional fludarabine and cyclophosphamide (“Flu/Cy”) to achieve improved lymphodepletion prior to CD19 CAR-T
−Removed: treatment in patients with relapsed or refractory B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (“ALL”) or diffuse large B-cell lymphoma
−Removed: The consistent CD45 expression on select immune and hematopoietic cells leads to potent lymphodepletion and
−Removed: reduced cytokine release syndrome (“CRS”) and immune effector cell–associated neurotoxicity syndrome (“ICANS”)
−Removed: with a single dose administered in an outpatient setting.
−Removed: The NIH grant was recently extended to fund the ongoing clinical trial with
−Removed: In March 2024, we announced a new clinical trial that will study Iomab-ACT as targeted conditioning prior to patients receiving
−Removed: an FDA approved commercial CAR-T therapy.
−Removed: This trial will be conducted at the University of Texas Southwestern and will start recruiting
−Removed: patients following FDA review and clearance of the study.
−Removed: To our knowledge, this is the first time a targeted radiotherapy conditioning
−Removed: regimen will be used prior to a commercial CAR-T therapy.
−Removed: We have an industry-leading
−Removed: clinical development program investigating Actimab-A, a CD33 targeting ARC conjugated to the potent alpha radiation emitting isotope Ac-225,
−Removed: that has been studied in approximately 150 patients treated over six clinical trials.
−Removed: The potent linear energy transfer emitted by Ac-225
−Removed: has no known resistance mechanism.
−Removed: Actimab-A is being developed in combination with other regimens, including chemotherapies and targeted
−Removed: agents utilizing its potential mechanistic synergies.
−Removed: We are attempting to leverage the mutation-agnostic ability of Ac-225 to establish
−Removed: Actimab-A as a backbone therapy in AML, an extremely heterogenous and radiosensitive disease.
−Removed: We believe our Actimab-A +
−Removed: CLAG-M therapeutic combination trial results in r/r AML validate this approach.
−Removed: Phase 1 results from the Actimab-A + CLAG-M combination
−Removed: trial showed high response rates and minimal residual disease (“MRD”) negativity, translating to a survival benefit in patients
−Removed: who are typically expected to live two to four months.
−Removed: On September 6, 2023, updated data from the Actimab-A + CLAG-M combination trial
−Removed: was presented at SOHO where 1-year OS for patients with prior venetoclax treatment was 46% and 48% in all patients receiving Actimab-A
−Removed: + CLAG-M treatment.
−Removed: In patients who received a transplant, the median OS was 24 months or more.
−Removed: In 2023, we announced the
−Removed: NCI Cooperative Research and Development Agreement (“CRADA”) to develop Actimab-A for the treatment of patients with AML and
−Removed: other hematologic malignancies.
−Removed: The NCI will serve as the regulatory sponsor for any clinical trials mutually approved by both parties
−Removed: to study Actimab-A, and the CRADA will provide extensive support for and accelerate the development of Actimab-A alone or in combination
−Removed: with chemotherapy, immunotherapy, targeted agents and other novel combinations.
−Removed: The CRADA studies will be overseen by the NCI in collaboration
−Removed: with Actinium’s clinical development team, where Actinium has the right to review and approve all protocols and has full rights
−Removed: The NCI CRADA provides for Actinium to supply Actimab-A and for NCI to cover all clinical trial execution and development
−Removed: The NCI CRADA is anticipated to have a material balance sheet sparing impact over the next several years.
−Removed: We expect the NCI
−Removed: to initiate further development of Actimab-A in combination with CLAG-M and other targeted agents to broaden the scope of its development
−Removed: Our Phase 1 data showed the
−Removed: combination of Actimab-A + venetoclax was well-tolerated with responses, including a CR and a partial response in early dose-escalation
−Removed: Additionally, at SOHO, we presented the first-ever preclinical data demonstrating the potential synergy of Actimab-A with FLT3
−Removed: (Fms-like tyrosine kinase 3) inhibitors gilteritinib and midostaurin.
−Removed: FLT3 is one of the most commonly mutated genes in AML and is associated
−Removed: with aggressive disease with poor outcomes.
−Removed: Actimab-A was shown to have single-agent activity against FLT3 mutant AML cell lines, supporting
−Removed: its mutation-agnostic mechanism, and enhanced the anti-leukemic activity of the FLT3 inhibition in vitro.
−Removed: CD33-expressing myeloid derived
−Removed: suppressor cells, (“MDSCs”), are present within the tumor microenvironment and exert immunosuppressive effects.
−Removed: In April 2023,
−Removed: we presented preclinical data at the Association for Cancer Research (“AACR”) Annual Meeting that depicted Actimab-A’s
−Removed: role in the tumor microenvironment to overcome immunosuppression driven by MDSCs.
−Removed: We believe that our findings show that Actimab-A has
−Removed: the potential to selectively deplete MDSCs in lung, colorectal and other cancers.
−Removed: Actimab-A also demonstrated statistically significant
−Removed: depletion of human MDSCs compared to Mylotarg, a CD33-targeted antibody-drug conjugate (“ADC”) in colorectal cancer (p<0.01),
−Removed: highlighting the potent cytotoxicity and potential therapeutic benefit of radiotherapy compared to naked antibodies or ADCs.
−Removed: demonstrates the advantages of ARCs over ADCs by using the power of radiation, against which cells have no known resistance or repair
−Removed: Radiation can cause double stranded breaks in DNA, which lead to cancer cell death.
−Removed: At the Society of Immunotherapy of Cancer
−Removed: (“SITC”) 38 th Annual Meeting on November 4, 2023, data was presented highlighting Actimab-A’s unique
−Removed: ability to target and deplete MDSCs and restore T-cell proliferation and effector response.
−Removed: SPECT/CT imaging confirmed uptake of Actimab-A
−Removed: in a humanized non-small cell lung cancer model, indicating enrichment of CD33+ MDSCs in the tumor microenvironment.
−Removed: We believe that the
−Removed: data continues to support our objective to demonstrate the potential for Actimab-A to be a backbone therapy to broadly improve antitumor
−Removed: activity of immunotherapies and other targeted therapeutic modalities.
−Removed: To realize the broader development potential for Actimab-A, we are
−Removed: exploring its role as a maintenance therapy for various indications through our research and development (“R&D”) efforts.
−Removed: Despite advances in therapeutics, a major
−Removed: concern remains, with relapse risk greater than 50% for adults with high-risk AML.
−Removed: The goal of maintenance therapy is to improve overall
−Removed: survival and eradicate MRD.
−Removed: Having demonstrated 72% MRD negativity rate in r/r AML patients who received Actimab-A + CLAG-M and achieved
−Removed: CR/CRi (Complete Remission with incomplete count recovery), we aim to develop a treatment strategy in the maintenance setting utilizing
−Removed: Actimab-A alone or in various combinations.
−Removed: Our ARC product
−Removed: candidates are intended to combine the targeting ability of monoclonal antibodies (“mAb”) with the cell-killing ability
−Removed: of radioisotopes.
−Removed: Our ARC product candidates target antigens that are expressed on certain cancer cell types and are able to
−Removed: destroy cellular DNA and kill these cells with the energy that they emit.
−Removed: We are deploying our technology platform, which we believe to be industry-leading,
−Removed: and intellectual property, with over 230 issued patents and pending patent applications worldwide, to develop ARCs and
−Removed: next-generation targeted radiotherapies that we intend to be ideally suited for particular disease indications and patient populations.
−Removed: working on several preclinical programs that include novel approaches to validated cancer targets, as well as novel targets that
−Removed: show immense potential for radiotherapeutic approaches.
−Removed: We have several ongoing programs in solid tumors at the pre-clinical stage
−Removed: with investigational new drug (“IND”) enabling studies underway.
−Removed: Our research collaborations with large pharmaceutical
−Removed: and biotech companies such as Astellas Pharma Inc.
−Removed: (“Astellas”), AVEO Oncology/LG Chem (“LG Chem”), and
−Removed: EpicentRx, Inc.
−Removed: (“EpicentRx”) established our work with immunotherapies and in solid tumors in 2023 and years prior.
−Removed: Preclinical pharmacology studies with our targeted radiotherapeutics directed at validated cancer targets have shown strong
−Removed: improvement in tumor growth inhibition in various preclinical tumor models, prompting our efforts in multiple solid tumor
−Removed: At year-end 2023, we had approximately $76.7 million of cash on hand.
−Removed: of March 27, 2024, our unaudited cash on hand of $84.3 million is expected to fund operations into the second half of 2026, which we believe
−Removed: will provide a path for Actinium to potentially achieve regulatory approvals for Iomab-B in the U.S., EUMENA, and other regions, advance
−Removed: Actimab-A through multiple trials in front-line and r/r AML settings to realize our vision.
−Removed: In addition, we expect to continue to advance
−Removed: Iomab-ACT for cell and gene therapy conditioning, advance key R&D solid tumor programs and realize the value of our Ac-225 manufacturing
−Removed: technology and know-how.
−Removed: Market Opportunity
−Removed: The market opportunity for
−Removed: Iomab-B and Actimab-A, as depicted in the diagram below, exists for AML therapies and for cellular therapy conditioning in various blood
−Removed: We believe that Iomab-B and Actimab-A can fill the major unmet medical needs in r/r AML in a complementary fashion as they are
−Removed: utilized in different parts of the patient treatment journey.
−Removed: Today, less than 20% of all AML patients and less than 5% of r/r AML patients
−Removed: are able to access a BMT, currently the only potentially curative option.
−Removed: Most patients receiving BMT are fit, in remission and able to
−Removed: withstand the challenges associated with this treatment, leaving the large majority of AML patients ineligible for transplant.
−Removed: This provides
−Removed: an opportunity for Iomab-B, which has demonstrated the ability to enable unfit patients to benefit from a BMT.
−Removed: The incidence of AML is
−Removed: approximately 21,000 patients per year, with a prevalence of approximately 70,000 in the U.S., (approximately 27,500 new patients
−Removed: per year in Europe) and the disease has an outsized economic impact relative to its population size.
−Removed: In a retrospective analysis of
−Removed: commercial payer data published in the Journal of Managed Care & Specialty Pharmacy, total mean episode costs for patients with
−Removed: r/r AML were approximately $439 thousand, with hospitalization as the largest contributor to cost.
−Removed: Over 50% of patients diagnosed
−Removed: with AML will develop relapsed or refractory disease, with a median age of 68 years at diagnosis.
−Removed: In the U.S., Iomab-B can
−Removed: potentially expand the market from the approximately 400 r/r AML patients who are transplanted currently to approximately 8,000
−Removed: unfit patients that could be eligible for transplant.
−Removed: Despite 11 new approved therapies since 2017, no significant advancements have
−Removed: been made toward a cure and there is an important unmet medical need for better therapeutics, which provides the opportunity for
−Removed: Using Actimab-A in combination with chemotherapy or a targeted therapy, we have the potential opportunity to treat both
−Removed: newly diagnosed or r/r AML patients, with the potential addressable population comparable to the prevalence of patients with
−Removed: and the five largest countries in Western Europe (France, Germany,
−Removed: Italy, Spain and the United Kingdom, which we refer to as “EU5”), we believe there is the potential market opportunity to
−Removed: address more than 85 thousand r/r AML patients, as shown above.
−Removed: Globally, the number of BMTs performed has doubled in the last 10 years,
−Removed: with an estimated ~70 thousand allogeneic BMTs performed annually.
−Removed: Europe represents 40% of BMTs, the largest share of any continent globally.
−Removed: Similar to the U.S., we believe the EUMENA market opportunity for Iomab-B has favorable commercial dynamics where the majority of the
−Removed: estimated7,200 BMTs performed in AML patients (approximately twice the number of BMTs performed in the U.S.) are concentrated in major
−Removed: centers that treat the majority of patients in each country and region.
−Removed: Iomab-B has also demonstrated the ability to improve BMT access with extended survival and potentially curative outcomes in several
−Removed: other hematological diseases outside of AML.
−Removed: Several clinical trials in over 300 patients with myelodysplastic syndromes (“MDS”),
−Removed: acute lymphocytic leukemia (“ALL”), Hodgkin’s lymphoma (“HL”), Non-Hodgkin lymphoma (“NHL”)
−Removed: and multiple myeloma (“MM”) have demonstrated the same value proposition as in AML.
−Removed: This data provides a potential opportunity
−Removed: to expand the market for Iomab-B beyond AML via label expansion.
−Removed: In the U.S., there are approximately 185,000 patients diagnosed annually
−Removed: with blood cancers (e.g., leukemia, lymphoma, and myeloma) that are treatable with BMT, of which, approximately 20,000 are transplanted,
−Removed: leaving greater than 165,000 patients who could potentially benefit from transplant.
−Removed: These patients do not receive a BMT today primarily
−Removed: because they are unfit with active disease and are not considered eligible, as they cannot tolerate the rigors of therapy required to
−Removed: induce a remission and the conditioning agents required to ablate the marrow prior to a BMT.
−Removed: Beyond BMT, the opportunity exists for better conditioning in other areas
−Removed: of cellular therapy, such as CAR-T as well as gene therapies.
−Removed: The pipeline of CAR-T and gene therapies has rapidly expanded, with the
−Removed: addressable patient population expected to nearly double and reach approximately 93,000 patients in the U.S.
−Removed: by 2030 based on the current
−Removed: pipeline of therapies.
−Removed: The CAR-T market size in terms of revenue is estimated to grow at a CAGR of approximately 11% over the next 5 plus
−Removed: Currently, there are six CAR T-cell therapies approved by the FDA that are used to treat patients with lymphomas, leukemia and
−Removed: multiple myeloma, which collectively had total sales over $3.5 billion in 2023.
−Removed: The addressable market for Iomab-ACT is in line with the
−Removed: patient population for cellular therapy as all patients receive conditioning of some type prior to these treatments.
−Removed: We will continue
−Removed: to develop Iomab-ACT, our next-generation conditioning program for rapidly growing cell and gene therapies based on early promising results,
−Removed: ultimately with the value proposition of improving overall access and outcomes for patients who need cellular or gene therapies.
−Removed: an opportunity exists for Iomab-ACT to potentially generate significant revenue, if it can provide one or more clinical benefits related
−Removed: to lower CRS, less neurotoxicity, longer duration of response or a higher overall success rate of cellular therapy due to benefits of
−Removed: targeted conditioning.
−Removed: Actinium’s strategy is to build a fully integrated, specialty
−Removed: radiotherapeutics company focused on the top 100 cancer hospitals, using the power of our platform to deliver new treatment options for
−Removed: patient populations living with high unmet medical needs in hematology and oncology.
−Removed: We believe our focus on relapsed or refractory disease
−Removed: in cancer indications with high unmet medical need, with limited or no competition, and where the primary delivery of care occurs in large
−Removed: comprehensive cancer care centers, is the appropriate strategy for our company.
−Removed: We believe that the cell-killing power of linear energy
−Removed: transfer delivered via radiotherapeutics is unmatched by other technologies and we believe relapsed/refractory disease is an area where
−Removed: radiotherapeutics can succeed over other approaches.
−Removed: However, radiotherapeutics must be delivered on a just-in-time basis, and commercial
−Removed: and supply chain barriers are higher than with other types of medicines.
−Removed: The validity of our approach is demonstrated by our product development
−Removed: strategy as well as the commercial and operating model that we are building for our lead ARC product candidates, Iomab-B and Actimab-A.
−Removed: We intend to transform the
−Removed: treatment of AML with our Iomab-B and Actimab-A product candidates, each of which has demonstrated extension of survival in the most difficult-to-treat
−Removed: patients who are typically expected to survive for two to four months.
−Removed: The r/r AML segment comprises over 50% of all AML patients.
−Removed: a therapeutic agent, and Iomab-B for induction and conditioning, can be used in a complementary fashion as depicted in the diagram below.
−Removed: Based on the clinical evidence with these product candidates, we intend to develop and commercialize these two radiotherapy drugs, starting
−Removed: with Iomab-B and followed by Actimab-A, if approved, with the goal of improving survival in patients with r/r AML.
−Removed: Iomab-B and Actimab-A have the potential to significantly improve
−Removed: r/r AML outcomes in a complementary manner
−Removed: We believe the operating model required to achieve our vision is attractive
−Removed: for several reasons, including the concentrated point of care;
−Removed: the top 50 transplant centers account for approximately 75% of BMTs and
−Removed: the top 100 hospitals treat over 50% of r/r AML patients.
−Removed: Further, there is significant overlap in the healthcare providers and ecosystem
−Removed: required to diagnose, treat and care for r/r AML patients within these hospitals, which we believe will enable us to deploy a relatively
−Removed: small commercial organization and operate an appropriately sized supply chain.
−Removed: Our product pipeline is targeting
−Removed: a broader opportunity in conditioning via label expansion of Iomab-B into BMT for other blood cancers and with Iomab-ACT, our next generation
−Removed: conditioning program for rapidly growing cell and gene therapies.
−Removed: Further, our solid tumor programs are initially directed at r/r cancers,
−Removed: a stage of disease where treatment is again concentrated in large hospitals, which account for a significant portion of patients.
−Removed: our strategy will enable us to build a successful company with high operating efficiencies and is feasible to achieve without requiring
−Removed: a commercial partner.

+Added: targeting, first-in-class radiotherapy utilizing the Actinium-225 (“Ac-225”) radioisotope payload intended for patients with
+Added: prostate cancer directed against a novel radiotherapy target.
+Added: Actimab-A is being developed
+Added: as a targeted radiotherapeutic to leverage the Actinium-225 (“Ac-225") isotope payload directed against CD33, a target expressed
+Added: ubiquitously in patients with AML, MDS and expressed in other myeloid malignancies.
+Added: We are attempting to leverage the mutation-agnostic
+Added: ability of Ac-225 to establish Actimab-A as a backbone therapy in myeloid malignancies, which are extremely heterogenous and radiosensitive,
+Added: as a single agent or in combinations with chemotherapy, targeted agents, cellular therapy and immunotherapy.
+Added: Actimab-A has been studied
+Added: in over 150 patients.
+Added: We plan to initiate a Phase 2/3 trial with Actimab-A in combination with the chemotherapy regimen CLAG-M in patients
+Added: with r/r AML.
+Added: In addition to our internal development efforts, we entered into a Cooperative Research and Development Agreement (“CRADA”)
+Added: with the National Cancer Institute (“NCI”) in February 2023 for the development of Actimab-A for AML and other myeloid malignancies.
+Added: The first clinical trial to be conducted under our CRADA with NCI will evaluate the triplet combination comprised of Actimab-A, Venetoclax
+Added: and ASTX-727, a novel oral HMA developed by Taiho Oncology, an Otsuka Holdings company, in frontline AML patients.
+Added: Venetoclax in combination
+Added: with HMAs (Ven-HMA) is approved for patients with newly diagnosed AML.
+Added: We believe this trial is supported by our Actimab-A + Venetoclax
+Added: combination trial that showed that combination was well-tolerated and showed supportive anti-leukemic activity.
+Added: Additional clinical trial
+Added: concepts for Actimab-A have been submitted under the CRADA and are being reviewed.
+Added: We anticipate that additional clinical trials with
+Added: Actimab-A will be initiated in 2025 including under the CRADA to leverage Actimab-A’s mutation agnostic mechanism.
+Added: In March of 2025, we initiated
+Added: our Actimab-A solid tumor program that will combine Actimab-A with PD-1 checkpoint inhibitors.
+Added: We initiated this program to evaluate if
+Added: Actimab-A can deplete CD33 expressing MDSCs and hence improve patient outcomes in combination with PD-1 ICIs such as KEYTRUDA ® and
+Added: The Actimab-A solid tumor program is comprised of several controlled, head-to-head clinical trials that will evaluate
+Added: the combination of Actimab-A with KEYTRUDA ® versus KEYTRUDA ® alone, and Actimab-A with OPDIVO ® versus
+Added: OPDIVO ® alone.
+Added: The initial tumors that are being targeted are Head and Neck Squamous Cell Carcinoma (“HNSCC”)
+Added: and Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (“NSCLC”) with a separate trial for each indication.
+Added: ATNM-400 is our newest targeted
+Added: radiotherapy program that we are advancing for prostate cancer.
+Added: Given the biology of the antigen targeted by ATNM-400 and the precise
+Added: and potent cell-killing of Ac-225, we believe ATNM-400 has the potential to address unmet needs in prostate cancer.
+Added: We have generated
+Added: preclinical data with ATNM-400 showing selective tumor accumulation with minimal uptake in normal tissues.
+Added: Our experiments also showed
+Added: dose-dependent cytotoxicity.
+Added: We continue to study ATNM-400 with additional data expected from Pluvicto-resistant prostate cancer models.
+Added: Pluvicto (Lu-177-PSMA-617) is a prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) directed targeted radiotherapy that uses the beta-particle emitting
+Added: radioisotope Lutetitium-177 (“Lu-177”) that is approved for patients with metastatic prostate cancer.
+Added: ATNM-400 is differentiated
+Added: from Pluvicto as it targets a different marker than PSMA that has been shown to be overexpressed in patients with prostate cancer and
+Added: uses the alpha-particle emitter Ac-225, which is more potent than Lu-177 but has a shorter path length, which could result in fewer off-target
+Added: effects such as xerostomia.
+Added: In addition to ATNM-400, we
+Added: have active R&D efforts leveraging our in-house preclinical development and translational research capabilities that are primarily
+Added: focused on supporting our ATNM-400 preclinical program, the Actimab-A and Iomab-ACT clinical programs and advancing several preclinical
+Added: programs for solid tumor indications.
+Added: Iomab-ACT is our next-generation
+Added: targeted conditioning agent directed against CD45, a target expressed widely across the hematopoietic system including normal nucleated
+Added: immune cells such as lymphocytes that is relevant to this program and uses the Iodine-131(“I-131") radioisotope payload.
+Added: are developing Iomab-ACT for cell and gene therapies for both malignant and non-malignant hematologic indications.
+Added: Iomab-ACT utilizes
+Added: non-myeloablative doses of I-131, to not fully deplete the patient’s bone marrow and immune system with the goal of improving patient
+Added: access and outcomes for potentially curative cell and gene therapies by replacing the need for the non-targeted, chemotherapy-based conditioning
+Added: regimens that are currently used.
+Added: Iomab-ACT is currently being studied in three clinical trials.
+Added: These trials include Iomab-ACT with a
+Added: commercial CAR-T therapy, Iomab-ACT prior to allogeneic BMT for patients with SCD, which could potentially inform a trial design with
+Added: gene therapy for SCD, and Iomab-ACT with a novel investigational CD19 CAR-T therapy.
+Added: previously advanced our targeted conditioning program Iomab-B through the Phase 3 Study of Iomab-B in Elderly Relapsed and Refractory
+Added: AML (“SIERRA”) trial, a 153 patient, randomized multi-center trial conducted in the United States.
+Added: comprised of the anti-CD45 monoclonal antibody apamistamab with myeloablative doses of I-131 intended to enable patient access to bone
+Added: marrow transplant (“BMT”), the only potentially curative treatment option for patients with r/r AML.
+Added: At this time, we are
+Added: seeking a strategic partner for Iomab-B to conduct an additional clinical trial based on feedback from the U.S.
+Added: Food & Drug Administration
+Added: (“FDA”) and are committed to establishing the best development path forward for Iomab-B in the U.S., while keeping internal
+Added: resources and strategic priorities in focus.
+Added: As previously disclosed and noted above, Actinium also has a License Agreement with Immedica,
+Added: granting Immedica the exclusive product rights for commercialization of Iomab-B in certain countries in the European Economic Area, Middle
+Added: East and North Africa (“EUMENA”) region.
+Added: Actinium’s Approach to Targeted Radiotherapy
+Added: Radiation is a validated cancer
+Added: therapy that has been used to treat patients for over 100 years.
+Added: It is used to treat over half of all patients diagnosed with cancer today.
+Added: Radiation therapy utilizes rays of energy to kill cancer cells and is commonly used in combination with other cancer treatment modalities.
+Added: Radiation therapy is primarily administered from outside of the body and therefore passes through normal healthy tissue and organs that
+Added: result in side effects and toxicities, which can be acute and/or chronic.
+Added: With our targeted radiotherapy
+Added: approach, we seek to address the limitations of external radiotherapy and achieve cellular level precision by leveraging the cancer cell
+Added: targeting ability of biologic molecules with the cancer cell killing ability of radioisotopes.
+Added: In doing so, we seek to improve efficacy
+Added: outcomes, reduce toxicities and expand the use of radiation to cancer indications like blood cancers that cannot be addressed with externally
+Added: delivered radiation.
+Added: In addition, we are also testing the use of targeted radiotherapies in solid tumor cancers where there are unmet
+Added: medical needs.
+Added: Biological molecules have demonstrated high affinity for cancer cell identification and binding to biological markers on
+Added: the surface of cells known as antigens or ligands, which are the target receptors for our targeted radiotherapies.
+Added: Actinium’s Targeted Radiotherapies
+Added: Alpha particles emitted by
+Added: as the element Ac-225 are the heaviest and have the highest charge, resulting in high amounts of linear energy transfer, which is capable
+Added: of producing double strand DNA breaks.
+Added: However, alpha-particles travel short distances of just several microns and as a consequence do
+Added: not exert radiation outside of the body.
+Added: Alpha particles can be stopped by an ordinary sheet of paper.
+Added: Therefore, alpha particle-based
+Added: therapies do not require special shielding or that patients remain isolated following treatment.
+Added: Beta particle-based therapies have a
+Added: longer pathlength but have lower amounts of linear energy transfer and at certain dose levels may require isolation or special handling.
+Added: Comparison of Radioisotope Pathlength
+Added: We focus on producing drug candidates that match a specific targeting
+Added: agent with the appropriate isotope for a desired indication.
+Added: We employ an isotope-agnostic approach to targeted radiotherapy development.
+Added: Our development efforts are centered on validated targets that are known to have high expression on cancer cells compared to normal healthy
+Added: We are advancing our clinical product candidates targeting CD33 and CD45 and have completed preclinical studies against other blood
+Added: cancer targets such as CD38, as well as various validated solid tumors targets.
+Added: We believe that the cell-killing power of linear energy transfer delivered
+Added: via radiotherapeutics is unmatched by other technologies and that there are multiple indications where radiotherapeutics can succeed over
+Added: other approaches.
+Added: However, radiotherapeutics must be delivered on a just-in-time basis, and commercial and supply chain barriers are higher
+Added: than with other types of medicines.
+Added: Actinium’s strategy is to build a specialty radiotherapeutics company with the capabilities
+Added: to produce radioisotopes, manufacture radiotherapies, conduct preclinical research, clinical development and supply radiotherapies to
+Added: the point of care.
+Added: We believe our strategy will enable us to build a successful company with the potential for high operating efficiencies.
Our strategic priorities are to:
−Removed: Establish Iomab-B as the standard of care to improve BMT access and survival outcomes in r/r AML patients who are currently not considered transplantable in routine clinical practice:
−Removed: With the SIERRA results demonstrating unprecedented access to BMT,
−Removed: Iomab-B is being developed to address the high unmet need in conditioning for potentially curative BMT, where the majority of patients
−Removed: are treated in a concentrated number of leading centers globally.
−Removed: and EU5, we believe there is the potential market opportunity
−Removed: to address more than 85 thousand r/r AML patients, as shown above.
−Removed: Europe represents 40% of BMTs globally.
−Removed: We intend to leverage our operating
−Removed: track record at key cancer centers to build an organization that can effectively commercialize Iomab-B.
−Removed: By virtue of the SIERRA trial,
−Removed: we have established operations at 24 leading BMT centers in the U.S.
−Removed: (22) and Canada (2) that represent about 30% of transplant volume
−Removed: and have strong working partnerships with Key Opinion Leaders (“KOLs”) and their teams.
−Removed: The SIERRA results demonstrating unprecedented
−Removed: access to BMT and outcomes, along with our commitment to operational excellence provide a strong foundation for our commercial team in
−Removed: Similar to the U.S.
−Removed: market, we believe the EUMENA market opportunity for Iomab-B has favorable commercial dynamics where the
−Removed: majority of BMTs performed in AML patients (twice the number performed in the U.S.) are concentrated in major centers that treat the majority
−Removed: of patients in each country and region.
−Removed: Advance Actimab-A in combinations as a backbone therapy for r/r AML:
−Removed: We intend to progress late-stage development of Actimab-A to leverage its mutation-agnostic mechanism of action (“MOA”) and exploit synergies in combination with other treatments to develop it as an AML backbone therapy.
−Removed: This approach is validated by proof-of-concept data from our Actimab-A + CLAG-M combination trial in r/r AML, which included 57% of patients who had failed venetoclax and are expected to live two to four months on average.
−Removed: The results demonstrated high response rates overall and in these venetoclax failed patients’ median OS was 59% at one year and 32% at two years.
−Removed: Our collaboration with the NCI under the CRADA could provide broad support for late-stage development of Actimab-A + CLAG-M and also other clinical trials to broaden use of Actimab-A.
−Removed: Actimab-A, if approved, would enable us to launch a second product that is complementary to Iomab-B and fulfill our ambition of transforming the treatment outcomes of r/r AML and expand our commercial footprint into the remaining top 100 cancer care centers outside of the leading BMT hospitals.
−Removed: Expand the Iomab-B label and revenue stream via life cycle management:
−Removed: We intend to leverage data from several clinical trials that demonstrate the ability of Iomab-B to improve BMT access and outcomes in five additional hematologic indications.
−Removed: These data in MDS, ALL, HL, NHL and MM provide the foundation to expand the label for Iomab-B and increase its market potential.
−Removed: In AML, we would seek label expansion into haploidentical transplants, earlier lines of treatment and younger patients below the age of 55, the cutoff in the SIERRA trial.
−Removed: As much as possible, we would seek to use investigator sponsored trials as the primary strategy for label expansion in order to maximize capital utilization.
−Removed: Further expand our conditioning franchise by developing Iomab-ACT for cell and gene therapies:
−Removed: We plan to develop Iomab-ACT to be used for either lymphodepletion or reduced intensity conditioning prior to CAR-T and gene therapies.
−Removed: Similar to BMT, access and outcomes of patients who might benefit from these therapies is currently limited by sub-optimal chemotherapy-based conditioning agents.
−Removed: The number of patients potentially eligible for Iomab-ACT is growing with increased availability of commercial cell and gene therapy products, as well as the expanding number of indications.
−Removed: We are studying Iomab-ACT in conditioning prior to CAR-T cellular therapy via a NIH grant that was recently extended to the Phase 2 portion to fund the ongoing clinical trial with MSKCC.
−Removed: In October 2023, we announced the extension of a NIH Small Business Technology Transfer grant to support the clinical collaboration with MSKCC.
−Removed: In March 2024, we announced a new clinical trial that will study Iomab-ACT as targeted conditioning prior to patients receiving an FDA-approved commercial CAR-T therapy.
−Removed: This trial is expected to be conducted at the University of Texas Southwestern and expected to start recruiting patients following FDA review and clearance of the study.
−Removed: Leverage our R&D capabilities and technological
−Removed: prowess to advance our solid tumor directed ARC programs and partnerships:
−Removed: Our preclinical programs include novel approaches to validated cancer
−Removed: targets, as well as novel targets that we believe to show immense potential for radiotherapeutic approaches.
−Removed: We intend to continue to
−Removed: direct our R&D effort to advance our solid tumor directed ARC programs into the clinic and support life cycle management for Iomab-B
−Removed: and Actimab-A.
−Removed: Results from our preclinical pharmacology studies with our targeted ARCs have led to multiple solid tumor programs in the
−Removed: preclinical stage with IND enabling studies underway.
−Removed: We currently believe that Actinium’s ARCs are less likely than small molecules
−Removed: to face pricing pressure and negotiation, given that small molecules are subject to price negotiations under the Inflation Reduction Act
−Removed: (“IRA”) seven years after approval compared to eleven years for a biologic, with negotiated pricing taking effect two years
−Removed: after selection.
−Removed: While generic versions of certain radiopharmaceuticals utilizing peptides have been submitted to the FDA via the Abbreviated
−Removed: New Drug Application (“ANDA”) pathway, ARCs fall under biologics and therefore only the biosimilar approach pertains to ARCs
−Removed: filed under 351(k) BLA pathway.
−Removed: The regulatory pathway for biosimilars is much more comprehensive than the pathway for generics, and it
−Removed: has not been proven that biosimilars are interchangeable with the innovator’s ARCs.
−Removed: Our R&D capabilities in developing ARCs and next-generation targeted
−Removed: radiotherapies are reflected in our worldwide patent portfolio of over 230 issued and pending patents.
−Removed: The subject matter covered in this
−Removed: portfolio includes ARC compositions of matter, radiopharmaceutical formulations and manufacturing, methods of treatment and administration,
−Removed: and novel bifunctional chelators (linkers), as well as several aspects of manufacturing Ac-225 using a cyclotron among other subject matter.
−Removed: In keeping with our strategic vision over the next several years, we
−Removed: plan to first focus on ensuring an Iomab-B approval and successful launch into core BMT centers in the U.S.
−Removed: and working with our partner
−Removed: Immedica to support its commercial success.
−Removed: We intend to expand the Iomab-B label and its revenue stream while progressing the development
−Removed: of Actimab-A by leveraging the NCI CRADA.
−Removed: We will endeavor to progress the development of Iomab-ACT to proof-of-concept and explore potential
−Removed: partnerships as a means to achieve commercialization.
−Removed: Our solid tumor programs are expected to progress toward the clinic as we continue
−Removed: to build out our commercial footprint into the top 100 hospitals, which we hope will position us to develop our ARCs in line with our
−Removed: With commercial dynamics aligning favorably for a successful Iomab-B launch and with late-stage development of Actimab-A planned
−Removed: in collaboration with the NCI, we plan to deliver on our mission to transform the treatment of AML and patient outcomes, and create a
−Removed: highly differentiated, specialty radiotherapeutics company focused on the top 100 large hospitals.
−Removed: Our ARC Pipeline
−Removed: We have strategically focused
−Removed: our development efforts in areas where there is a significant unmet medical need.
−Removed: Our novel Antibody Radiation Conjugates or ARCs have
−Removed: the potential to positively impact the outcomes of people living with hard-to-treat diseases such as r/r AML and we are developing both
−Removed: therapeutic and induction/conditioning agents for this purpose.
−Removed: Outside of AML, our ARC pipeline development offers the opportunity to
−Removed: enhance the value proposition of cell and gene therapies with our clinical stage targeted conditioning programs.
−Removed: AML Focused ARC Programs – Iomab-B
−Removed: and Actimab-A
−Removed: Our ARC product candidates,
−Removed: Iomab-B and Actimab-A, are focused on addressing the major unmet medical needs in r/r AML in a complementary manner and are directed at
−Removed: different parts of the patient journey.
−Removed: Iomab-B – Targeted ARC for Induction
−Removed: and Conditioning.
−Removed: A potential new standard of care enabling a curative BMT in currently non-transplantable r/r AML patients with poor
−Removed: survival prognosis
−Removed: Opportunity to Change the Current Paradigm
−Removed: for Accessing a BMT and Improving Outcomes
−Removed: The current approach in preparing
−Removed: patients for a BMT is to first induce a remission with therapeutic agents to reduce the disease burden and then suppress or destroy the
−Removed: patient’s immune system, including the diseased bone marrow, with conditioning regimens prior to transplanting the healthy donor
−Removed: hematopoietic stem cells, which are expected to restore normal bone marrow function following engraftment.
−Removed: As this approach requires patients
−Removed: to withstand multiple challenges from non-targeted therapies, which include chemotherapy agents and/or total body irradiation that are
−Removed: highly toxic, BMT is typically limited to FIT patients.
−Removed: Iomab-B is a targeted therapy that provides both disease control (induction) and
−Removed: conditioning in one agent and is well-tolerated even by UNFIT patients who typically are not transplanted in routine practice today.
−Removed: SIERRA trial was designed to demonstrate that UNFIT patients with active disease could be administered Iomab-B and proceed directly to
−Removed: a BMT without the need for inducing a remission and that this approach could result in improved survival and curative outcomes.
−Removed: by the positive results of the SIERRA trial detailed below, Iomab-B represents an exciting new potential paradigm in the management of
−Removed: AML patients and establishes a potential new standard of care especially for UNFIT patients in the relapsed or refractory setting.
−Removed: A trial conducted in Germany
−Removed: from 2015 to 2022 explored outcomes in patients proceeding to BMT but enrolled r/r AML patients FIT to tolerate sequential conditioning,
−Removed: an intensive, salvage chemotherapy-based regimen.
−Removed: Scheitleg et al.
−Removed: presented their findings at ASH in December 2022 titled , In Patients
−Removed: with Relapsed/Refractory AML Sequential Conditioning and Immediate Allogeneic Stem Cell Transplantation (allo-HCT) Results in Similar
−Removed: Overall and Leukemia-Free Survival Compared to Intensive Remission Induction Chemotherapy Followed By Allo-HCT:
−Removed: Results from the Randomized
−Removed: Phase III ASAP Trial or (the “ASAP trial”).
−Removed: The ASAP trial sought to demonstrate non-inferiority between two non-novel
−Removed: approaches and found that outcomes similar to those of current practice could be achieved without first getting a patient into remission
−Removed: before taking them to BMT by giving them sequential conditioning or treating them twice with non-targeted chemotherapy agents that are
−Removed: typically used in this setting.
−Removed: The ASAP approach is limited to only FIT patients as the UNFIT patients
−Removed: treated in SIERRA could not tolerate ASAP’s highly toxic sequential conditioning approach.
−Removed: However, we believe the ASAP trial results
−Removed: support the use of Iomab-B, which is intended to enable patients with active r/r AML to proceed directly to BMT, without first achieving
−Removed: CR with salvage induction chemotherapy.
−Removed: By doing so, we seek to reduce the amount and severity of toxicities, allowing patients to receive
−Removed: their BMT in better physical condition, reducing the need for in-patient hospital admissions, providing a pharmacoeconomic benefit, increasing
−Removed: access to potentially curative BMT and improve patient outcomes.
−Removed: We believe the SIERRA trial results therefore can change the paradigm
−Removed: in transplant because non-transplantable patients in routine clinical practice can benefit from a transplant with Iomab-B and could have
−Removed: superior outcomes.
−Removed: While both approaches in these trials support increased access to BMT, only Iomab-B is applicable to the UNFIT patients
−Removed: who comprise approximately 80% of r/r AML patients and can potentially expand the market for transplant.
−Removed: To avoid confusion between the
−Removed: potential of the approaches used in the ASAP and SIERRA trials, important distinctions between these trials are depicted in the graphic
−Removed: Schetelig et al.
−Removed: Results from the Randomized
−Removed: Phase III ASAP Trial.
−Removed: Pivotal Phase 3 SIERRA Trial for Iomab-B ( 131 Iodine-apamistamab)
−Removed: The SIERRA trial was designed
−Removed: to demonstrate the ability of Iomab-B to overcome challenges related to patient access to curative BMT.
−Removed: Unfortunately, approximately 30%
−Removed: of patients with AML have primary refractory disease while approximately 50% relapse quickly after achieving initial remission.
−Removed: these patients with primary r/r AML into remission is very challenging due to characteristics such as age, comorbidities, and disease
−Removed: features such as high-risk mutations that contribute to lack of response to salvage therapies and limit treatment options.
−Removed: Patients must be able to overcome several challenges related to curative
−Removed: The first access challenge is that the patient needs to be in complete remission prior to BMT.
−Removed: The current clinical practice is not
−Removed: to transplant patients with active AML as outcomes are poor due to high relapse rates.
−Removed: The National Comprehensive Cancer Network (“NCCN”)
−Removed: guidelines also recommend treatment to achieve remission prior to transplant in patients with relapsed AML.
−Removed: The second challenge to access
−Removed: is tolerance to current conditioning regimens.
−Removed: For older patients, myeloablative regimens are not an option due to intense toxicity and
−Removed: The third challenge is the ability to achieve post-BMT remission and successful engraftment.
−Removed: Inadequate conditioning can lead
−Removed: to graft failure, which is associated with very high mortality.
−Removed: Patients who fail to achieve a CR post-transplant have extremely poor
−Removed: outcomes and a survival of a few weeks.
−Removed: The fourth challenge relates to BMT tolerability and post-BMT complications.
−Removed: The conditioning
−Removed: and immunosuppressive regimens given to these patients put them at high risk for infectious complications and toxicity.
−Removed: In the SIERRA
−Removed: trial, Iomab-B addressed all four of these challenges.
−Removed: Access to BMT is improved as CR is not needed pre-BMT, given effective disease
−Removed: control and targeted myeloablation.
−Removed: With better post-BMT engraftment, CR and lower complications, the SIERRA trial also addressed the
−Removed: challenges related to improved outcomes through Iomab-B.
−Removed: We believe the SIERRA results presented in the late-breaker session at
−Removed: the 2023 Tandem Meetings, support Iomab-B’s value proposition of enabling both improved access and outcomes of a BMT, thereby providing
−Removed: a curative option for r/r AML patients, a segment that represents approximately 50% of all AML patients and the majority not transplanted
−Removed: The design of the SIERRA trial is provided in the figure below.
−Removed: A Novel, Pivotal Phase 3 Study
−Removed: of Iomab-B in r/r AML
−Removed: The pivotal Phase 3 SIERRA trial was a 153-patient, randomized, multi-center,
−Removed: controlled trial of Iomab-B in patients aged 55 and above with active r/r AML, who were heavily pre-treated and had high-risk characteristics.
−Removed: Patients enrolled had blast counts of 5% or greater in the marrow or circulating blasts suggestive of active AML.
−Removed: In this study, Iomab-B
−Removed: was compared to the control arm that allowed physician’s choice of over 20 available agents, including chemotherapies and/or targeted
−Removed: therapies such as venetoclax (BCL-2 inhibitor), FLT3 inhibitors, IDH inhibitors and Mylotarg, reflecting current best-treatment practices
−Removed: attempting to get patients to CR.
−Removed: The control arm included recently approved AML therapies that were added to the SIERRA protocol as they
−Removed: became available.
−Removed: The crossover arm was designed in SIERRA for an equipoise that offered Iomab-B to patients failing to achieve a CR on
−Removed: the control arm with an intent to rescue them by taking them to transplant.
−Removed: Of note, SIERRA had highly restrictive optionality for post-transplant
−Removed: Patients with active, r/r AML are not considered eligible for BMT with current approaches and the SIERRA trial was the only
−Removed: randomized Phase 3 trial to offer BMT as a treatment option for this patient population.
−Removed: These patients would not be offered BMT in standard
−Removed: practice and therefore have dismal survival outcomes of two to three months.
−Removed: The primary endpoint of the SIERRA trial was dCR of 6-months
−Removed: and the secondary endpoints are OS and Event-Free Survival (“EFS”).
−Removed: The comparison of OS in subjects randomized to the control
−Removed: arm who crossed over to receive Iomab-B versus all others in the control group was an exploratory efficacy endpoint.
−Removed: As seen in the graphic below,
−Removed: the primary endpoint of 6-month dCR was met with a high degree of statistical significance (p<0.0001).
−Removed: 75% of patients (44/59) receiving
−Removed: Iomab-B achieved an initial remission 30 days after their BMT compared to 6.3% of patients (4/64) in the control arm.
−Removed: 22% of the patients
−Removed: receiving Iomab-B maintained dCR lasting 6-months or more despite limited optionality for post-transplant maintenance, while none of the
−Removed: patients on the control arm achieved dCR.
−Removed: The current standard practice is to administer post-transplant maintenance therapy to reduce
−Removed: chances of relapse.
−Removed: The results presented below are on a per protocol basis, which means that only data that was in strict adherence to
−Removed: the protocol without any deviations was considered for the analysis.
−Removed: It is important to note that the p-value of the primary endpoint
−Removed: in the Intent-to-Treat (“ITT”) analysis was <0.0001, the same as the per protocol analysis.
−Removed: SIERRA Results:
−Removed: Iomab-B Meets Primary Endpoint
−Removed: with High Significance (p<0.0001)
−Removed: As demonstrated in the OS
−Removed: graph below, patients who achieved 6-month dCR had 92.3% 1-year survival and 59.9% 2-year survival.
−Removed: Median OS had not been reached in
−Removed: these patients.
−Removed: It is worth noting that two years in CR is a significant milestone in this patient population, highly indicative of long-term
−Removed: survival and a possible curative outcome.
−Removed: Overall Survival for Patients who Achieved
−Removed: 6-month dCR with Iomab-B
−Removed: OS was one of the secondary
−Removed: endpoints of the study.
−Removed: The Kaplan-Meier plot in the inset of the graph below shows ITT OS results between the Iomab-B arm and the control
−Removed: Due to the crossover design, ITT analysis of OS was confounded by the early crossover of patients (within 28 days) from the control
−Removed: arm to the Iomab-B arm (57.1%).
−Removed: The effective rescue of these crossover patients by Iomab-B led to an outsized contribution of the Iomab-B
−Removed: effect on control arm patients.
−Removed: As a result, median OS in the Iomab-B arm was similar to that in the control arm and this secondary endpoint
−Removed: was not met in the ITT analysis.
−Removed: In order to isolate the true
−Removed: impact of Iomab-B on OS, one of the exploratory efficacy endpoints was the comparison of OS in subjects randomized to the control arm
−Removed: who crossed over to receive Iomab-B versus all others in the control arm, as well as the control arm patients who did not crossover versus
−Removed: the Iomab-B arm.
−Removed: The Kaplan-Meier plot of OS in the graphic below shows that this exploratory analysis demonstrated the clear benefit
−Removed: of Iomab-B over the control arm.
−Removed: The median OS for the Iomab-B group was 6.4 months which was double the 3.2 months for the non-crossover
−Removed: patients in the control arm.
−Removed: Patients who crossed over from the control arm to receive Iomab-B had a median OS of 7.1 months demonstrating
−Removed: further the ability of Iomab-B to treat patients who are non-treatable by conventional means.
−Removed: A similar pattern favoring
−Removed: the Iomab-B group was seen across the pre-defined subgroups, where 1-year OS for Iomab-B was 26.1% compared with 13.1% for the non-crossover
−Removed: The 1-year OS for patients in the crossover arm was 35.8%.
−Removed: This clearly demonstrates the OS benefit of Iomab-B over the control
−Removed: arm and two to three-fold improvement in survival outcomes possible with its use.
−Removed: Kaplan-Meier Plot of Overall Survival ‒
−Removed: Iomab-B, Crossover, and Non-Crossover Control Arm
−Removed: Iomab-B produced a significant and clinically meaningful improvement
−Removed: in the secondary endpoint of EFS, with a 78% reduction in the probability of an event (Hazard Ratio=0.22, p<0.0001 for both per protocol
−Removed: and ITT basis).
−Removed: EFS at 6 months for the Iomab-B arm was 28% compared to 0.2% for the control arm.
−Removed: In the SIERRA trial, an event is defined
−Removed: as one of the following:
−Removed: a patient not achieving CR/CRp (Complete Remission with partial hematologic recovery) or crossing over, patient
−Removed: not receiving BMT, or a patient relapse or death.
−Removed: In the figure below
−Removed: comparing EFS with Iomab-B versus the control arm, the initial vertical drop in the curve in the Iomab-B arm represents those
−Removed: patients who did not achieve a remission after Iomab-B or those who did not proceed to transplant, while the initial vertical drop
−Removed: in the curve in the control arm mainly represents patients who did not achieve a remission with salvage therapy and either crossed
−Removed: over to Iomab-B or went on to best supportive care.
−Removed: Event-Free Survival with Iomab-B Versus Control
−Removed: The table below shows relevant adverse events in transplanted Iomab-B
−Removed: In these patients, incidence of sepsis was four times lower in the Iomab-B arm than the control arm (6.1% vs.
−Removed: rates of other treatment-related adverse events were lower in favor of Iomab-B, including febrile neutropenia (43.9% vs.
−Removed: 50.0%), mucositis
−Removed: 21.4%) and acute graft versus host disease (“GVHD”) (26.1% vs.
−Removed: Grade ≥3 Treatment-Emergent Adverse Events
−Removed: in Transplanted Patients Through Day 100 Post-HCT
−Removed: With current treatment practice,
−Removed: patients who have r/r AML with active disease, utilizing current conditioning agents have poor outcomes and very low survival rates.
−Removed: an Iomab-B led regimen, an unprecedented number of patients were able to access transplant and were able to do so with active disease,
−Removed: eliminating the need for achieving a CR in order to transplant the patient.
−Removed: Thus, patients are also able to access BMT faster with Iomab-B,
−Removed: in less than half the time compared to conventional care.
−Removed: Iomab-B represents a new paradigm with the potential to establish
−Removed: a new standard of care in r/r AML setting, making it possible for most patients to get to a successful transplant with Iomab-B, with a
−Removed: portion of these patients having a long-term survival benefit.
−Removed: As shown below, with an Iomab-B led regimen, the majority of patients who
−Removed: are non-transplantable in routine clinical practice can be successfully transplanted, administering myeloablative radiation with reduced
−Removed: intensity conditioning tolerability to ultimately achieve transformative survival outcome, changing the treatment paradigm for r/r AML
−Removed: Iomab-B – New Paradigm to Upend BMT
−Removed: Access and Improve r/r AML Outcomes
−Removed: At the 2024 Tandem Meetings,
−Removed: Iomab-B SIERRA trial data in an oral presentation detailed survival outcomes of patients with a TP53 mutation enrolled in the SIERRA
−Removed: trial, highlighting improved survival in patients who received Iomab-B.
−Removed: A total of 37 patients (24.2%) enrolled on the SIERRA trial had
−Removed: a TP53 mutation with 17 patients randomized to the Iomab-B arm and 20 patients randomized to the control arm of the study.
−Removed: for TP53 negative patients receiving Iomab-B was 6.37 months and 5.72 months for TP53 positive patients.
−Removed: In the control arm (including
−Removed: crossover patients), the median OS for TP53 positive patients was 2.96 months.
−Removed: Iomab-B was shown to significantly improve outcomes in
−Removed: TP53 positive patients (initial randomization and crossover patients) with a median OS of 5.49 months versus 1.66 months in patients
−Removed: that did not receive Iomab-B (hazard ratio 0.23, p-value=0.0002).
−Removed: These results for patients with a TP53 mutation were also accepted
−Removed: for oral presentation at the EBMT 50 th Annual Meeting in Glasgow, UK to be held on April 14 through April 17, 2024.
−Removed: oral presentation, data from the SIERRA trial highlighted the outcomes and safety of Iomab-B in patients 65 years and older that were
−Removed: similar to what we presented for the overall SIERRA population.
−Removed: The data presented from the SIERRA trial highlight the opportunity for
−Removed: Iomab-B to provide better access and outcomes in these hard-to-treat sub-groups, including patients with a TP53 mutation and those 65
−Removed: years of age and older.
−Removed: Future Development and Life Cycle Management
−Removed: The results of the Pivotal
−Removed: Phase 3 SIERRA trial validate the value proposition of Iomab-B, and we believe it could establish unprecedented access to transplant (currently
−Removed: the only curative option) with better safety and tolerability and improved outcomes, all of which could potentially make Iomab-B the new
−Removed: standard of care for patients with r/r AML.
−Removed: We plan to commercialize
−Removed: Iomab-B in the U.S.
−Removed: The commercial opportunity is supported by favorable dynamics, summarized by the “Three Ps and Two Cs”:
−Removed: With its promising profile, Iomab-B provides the opportunity for unprecedented BMT access and better outcomes for patients, with favorable safety and tolerability
−Removed: Our goal is to help physicians make BMT an option for a vast majority of r/r AML patients who currently are unable to access transplant without disruption to current practice.
−Removed: Patients are able to return to their referring physicians for post-BMT follow-up, and long-term care
−Removed: Iomab-B potentially unlocks value through getting patients safely to effective, potentially curative transplants, with improved outcomes and a manageable safety and tolerability profile
−Removed: Competition :
−Removed: While there have been multiple new product approvals in AML over the last several years, they primarily focus on addressing genetic mutations, with limited competition in conditioning to increase access to BMT.
−Removed: We do not see direct or indirect visible competition for Iomab-B in the 5-to-10-year horizon to impair the commercial success of Iomab-B.
−Removed: Concentrated Call Points :
−Removed: The commercialization for Iomab-B will benefit from a concentrated market.
−Removed: The top 50 centers perform 75% of BMTs and tend to be concentrated in metropolitan areas.
−Removed: These factors allow for commercialization delivered by a focused 35–50-person commercial organization.
−Removed: We believe the favorable commercial
−Removed: dynamics for Iomab-B in the U.S.
−Removed: are further supported by the foundation of core competencies, developed during the successful execution
−Removed: of the SIERRA trial at leading high-volume BMT centers.
−Removed: We established and actively managed an end-to-end supply chain, never missing
−Removed: a patient dose, and were able to treat 60% more patients than expected due to the high number of crossover patients.
−Removed: We focused on operational
−Removed: excellence at the point of care, working in partnership with leading KOLs and their teams to successfully execute SIERRA at a wide array
−Removed: As a result, we have broad reach across leading BMT centers that account for 30% of BMT volume, which speaks to the concentration
−Removed: of the BMT market.
−Removed: The positive SIERRA results of unprecedented access and outcomes along with our commitment to operational excellence
−Removed: provide a strong foundation for our commercial team.
−Removed: In April 2022, Actinium exclusively
−Removed: licensed the EUMENA commercial rights for Iomab-B to Immedica, an independent pharmaceutical company headquartered in Sweden.
−Removed: is solely responsible for the commercialization of the product.
−Removed: Immedica has significant know-how and experience in commercializing niche
−Removed: and specialty care products across Europe and the Middle East, with extensive regulatory and commercial expertise and capabilities.
−Removed: will continue to be responsible for certain clinical development activities and Iomab-B manufacturing and will retain commercialization

+Added: Establish in-house manufacturing infrastructure
+Added: to support our planned later-stage clinical development and secure partnerships to enable the deployment of our proprietary Ac-225 cyclotron
+Added: manufacturing technology.
+Added: Market Opportunity for Our Targeted Radiotherapies
+Added: We believe our clinical programs
+Added: have the potential to address a significant number of patients with high unmet medical needs and therefore represent large potential market
+Added: opportunities.
+Added: To our knowledge, Actimab-A, Iomab-ACT and ATNM-400 are first in class targeted radiotherapies for myeloid malignancies,
+Added: targeted conditioning for cell & gene therapies and multiple solid tumors, respectively, with each discrete opportunity representing
+Added: a range of over 100,000 to several hundred thousand addressable patients.
+Added: Four Large & Distinct Potential Market
+Added: Opportunities
+Added: Actimab - A Myeloid Malignancies Program
+Added: We are focused on developing
+Added: our lead targeted radiotherapy Actimab-A for patients with AML and MDS, which are the most common myeloid malignancies in adults.
+Added: and certain MDS can progress rapidly, especially in patients with high-risk features such as certain genetic mutations.
+Added: To our knowledge,
+Added: Actimab-A is the only CD33 targeted radiotherapy in development for patients with myeloid malignancies.
+Added: Myeloid malignancies are a
+Added: group of cancers that affect blood-forming cells also referred to as hematopoietic cells in the bone marrow.
+Added: These cells are from the
+Added: myeloid lineage and include white blood cells, red blood cells and platelets.
+Added: Myeloid malignancies include AML, MDS, chronic myeloid leukemia
+Added: (“CML”) and myeloproliferative neoplasms (“MPNs”).
+Added: We believe Actimab-A can be used in multiple treatment settings across
+Added: the myeloid patient journey.
+Added: For patients with AML, we plan to develop Actimab-A for both fit and unfit patients in the frontline, relapsed
+Added: or refractory and maintenance settings either as a monotherapy or in combination with other treatments.
+Added: For patients with MDS, we plan
+Added: to develop Actimab-A for patients who have high-risk disease and in the maintenance setting.
+Added: In the United States and the
+Added: five largest countries in Western Europe (France, Germany, Italy, Spain and the United Kingdom, which we refer to as “EU5”) ,
+Added: we estimate the patient population across our target treatment settings in these diseases to be greater than 100,000 patients annually.
+Added: and EU5 AML & MDS Addressable Patient
+Added: AML is increasingly defined
+Added: by the presence of genetic mutations or cytogenetic abnormalities as well as prior therapy given the increased number of approved agents.
+Added: AML is a mutation rich disease that is genetically heterogeneous with identifiable mutations in over 95% of all patients.
+Added: The most common
+Added: mutations for which there are approved therapies include fms-like tyrosine kinase 3 (“FLT3”), isocitrate dehydrogenase 1 &
+Added: 2 (“IDH1”) (“IDH2”), and nucleophosmin 1 (“NPM1”) & KMT2A rearrangements.
+Added: Various treatments are currently
+Added: approved or utilized for patients with AML and MDS including chemotherapies, targeted therapies, antibody drug conjugates (“ADCs”),
+Added: hypomethylating agents (“HMAs”) and BMT.
+Added: Since 2017, twelve therapies have been approved for patients with AML.
+Added: our development strategy, we have evaluated and expect to continue to evaluate Actimab-A in combination with these approved therapies
+Added: and other emerging treatment options or therapeutic modalities to leverage its mutation agnostic and potentially synergistic mechanism
+Added: Given the ubiquitous expression of CD33, we believe Actimab-A has the potential to be a backbone therapy for myeloid malignancies.
+Added: Fewer approved treatment options
+Added: exist for patients with MDS, particularly high-risk patients.
+Added: Treatments currently approved or utilized for high-risk patients include
+Added: chemotherapies, HMAs and IDH1 inhibitors.
+Added: We intend to evaluate the potential utility of Actimab-A in MDS either as single agent or in
+Added: combination with other therapies.
+Added: Given the complexity and aggressiveness
+Added: of AML and High-risk MDS, these patients are often referred to and treated in comprehensive treatment centers for in-patient treatment
+Added: as opposed to community, outpatient-based care.
+Added: As a result, we believe the majority of AML and High-risk MDS patients largely occurs
+Added: in a finite number of centers, which implies efficiencies from concentration of commercialization efforts.
+Added: Actimab-A Solid Tumor Program
+Added: We believe a large market
+Added: opportunity also exists for Actimab-A in solid tumor indications by depleting MDSCs to synergize with PD-1 checkpoint inhibitors and potentially
+Added: other immune checkpoint inhibitors.
+Added: Several solid tumor indications have shown to have high expression of MDSCs including non-small cell
+Added: lung cancer (“NSCLC”), melanoma, renal cell carcinoma (“RCC”), colorectal cancer (“CRC), triple negative
+Added: breast cancer (“TNBC”), head & neck squamous cell carcinoma (“HNSCC”), pancreatic cancer, glioblastoma (“GBM”)
+Added: prostate cancer and ovarian cancer.
+Added: Cumulatively, over 600,000 patients are diagnosed with these cancers annually.
+Added: PD-1 checkpoint inhibitors
+Added: are approved in a significant number of these indications and in 2024 generated sales totaling more than $45 billion.
+Added: We are planning to conduct our initial controlled, randomized clinical
+Added: trials in HNSCC and NSCLC in combination with the PD-1 checkpoint inhibitors KEYTRUDA ® and OPDIVO ® .
+Added: two indications represent a potential addressable patient opportunity of over 250,000 patients.
+Added: We expect to continue to evaluate additional
+Added: indications for potential future clinical trials assuming our initial efforts are successful.
+Added: ATNM-400 Prostate Cancer Program
+Added: Prostate cancer is the
+Added: most common cancer in men, with approximately 1 in 8 men diagnosed with prostate cancer during their lifetime.
+Added: According to the American
+Added: Cancer Society, an estimated 313,780 new cases of prostate cancer will be diagnosed in the United States in 2025.
+Added: The global incidence
+Added: of prostate cancer is approximately 1.5 million new cases annually.
+Added: Approximately 20% of prostate cancer cases are more aggressive forms
+Added: that progress to metastatic disease, which is associated with significantly worse survival outcomes.
+Added: Radiotherapy is commonly used to
+Added: treat prostate cancer, and in 2022, the PSMA-targeting radiotherapy Pluvicto was approved by the FDA and the European Medicines Agency
+Added: (“EMA”) for the treatment of patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer.
+Added: Pluvicto is marketed and sold
+Added: by Novartis and generated sales of $1.39 billion in 2024.
+Added: ATNM-400 is differentiated from Pluvicto as it targets a different marker than
+Added: PSMA that has been shown to be overexpressed in patients with prostate cancer and uses the alpha-particle emitter Ac-225, which is more
+Added: potent than Lu-177 but has a shorter path length, which could result in fewer off-target effects such as xerostomia.
+Added: Iomab-ACT Cell & Gene Therapy Conditioning
+Added: We are developing Iomab-ACT as a targeted conditioning agent to prepare
+Added: patients for cellular therapies such as CAR-T or BMT and gene therapies.
+Added: Our current clinical trials are focused on patients with blood
+Added: cancers and non-malignant blood disorders such as SCD.
+Added: The first CAR-T therapies was approved in 2017 and currently, there are 6 approved
+Added: CAR-T therapies for patients with lymphomas, leukemia and multiple myeloma, which generated sales of over $4.0 billion in 2024.
+Added: that there are approximately 125,000 patients diagnosed with blood cancers that can be potentially treated with CAR-T therapies, which
+Added: are currently approved for r/r patients.
+Added: SCD is a rare, debilitating and life-threatening blood disorder with significant unmet needs
+Added: that affects approximately 100,000 people in the U.S.
+Added: Patients with SCD have a mutation that causes red blood cells to develop a crescent
+Added: or “sickle” shape, which restrict the flow in blood vessels and limit oxygen delivery to the body’s tissues, leading
+Added: to severe pain and organ damage called vaso-occlusive events (“VOEs”) or vaso-occlusive crises (“VOCs”).
+Added: recurrence of these events or crises can lead to life-threatening disabilities and/or early death.
+Added: An allogeneic BMT is a potentially
+Added: curative treatment option for patients with sickle cell disease, particularly in pediatric and adolescent patients who have had complications
+Added: such as strokes, acute chest crises or recurring pain crises due to their disease.
+Added: In addition, there are two approved gene therapies
+Added: for patients with sickle cell disease, Casgevy (Vertex Pharmaceuticals, Inc.
+Added: and CRISPR Therapeutics) and Lyfgenia (Bluebird Bio, Inc.).
+Added: Our Clinical Product Candidates
+Added: Mutation Agnostic Mechanism of Action
+Added: with Backbone Therapy Potential in Myeloid Malignancies including AML and high-risk MDS
+Added: Actimab-A (Ac-225-lintuzumab satetraxetan) is our lead radiotherapeutic
+Added: product candidate in development for patients with myeloid malignancies.
+Added: To our knowledge, Actimab-A is the only CD33 targeting radiotherapy
+Added: in clinical development.
+Added: We are focused on developing Actimab-A as both a monotherapy and in combination with other treatment regimens
+Added: to leverage both the potential mechanistic synergies of radiation and its mutation agnostic cell killing ability.
+Added: In addition to our internal
+Added: development efforts, we entered into a CRADA with the NCI in February 2023 for the development of Actimab-A for AML and other myeloid
+Added: malignancies.
+Added: We intend to establish Actimab-A as a backbone therapy leveraging the
+Added: broad expression of CD33 in myeloid malignancies such as AML and MDS, which, like most blood cancers, are highly sensitive to radiation.
+Added: AML is a highly heterogenous, mutation rich cancer with over 70 identified driver genetic mutations.
+Added: However, there are only approved
+Added: therapies for four mutations including FLT3, IDH1 & IDH2, and NPM1.
+Added: CD33 is expressed regardless of other mutations being present
+Added: The Ac-225 isotope payload that we utilize with Actimab-A emits potent alpha-particles with high linear energy that kill cells via double
+Added: strand DNA breaks for which there is no known resistance or repair mechanism.
+Added: Actimab-A’s Mechanistic
+Added: Synergy and Potential Combinations
+Added: Our development strategy is
+Added: to exploit these properties of Actimab-A to address the unmet needs of patients with myeloid malignancies across the treatment journey
+Added: including the frontline, relapsed/refractory and maintenance settings.
+Added: To accomplish this, we are leveraging our clinical development
+Added: experience, clinical data and preclinical work supporting Actimab-A’s mutation agnostic capabilities.
+Added: Actimab-A Clinical Development Experience
+Added: To our knowledge, Actimab-A
+Added: is one of the most studied alpha-particle based targeted radiotherapies in clinical development having been studied in over 150 patients
+Added: across multiple clinical trials.
+Added: Actimab-A has been studied at multiple dose levels, different administration schedules and as a single
+Added: agent or in combination with chemotherapy and targeted agents in patients with AML in the front line and relapsed or refractory settings
+Added: with promising results to date.
+Added: Actimab-A Monotherapy Phase 2 Trial
+Added: Following multiple Phase 1
+Added: clinical trials, Actimab-A was studied in a 40-patient multi-center Phase 2 trial as a single agent in patients newly diagnosed with AML
+Added: age 60 and above who were ineligible for intensive chemotherapy.
+Added: At the dose level of 2.0 μCi/kg, Actimab-A produced high overall response
+Added: rates (“ORR”) of 69% including Complete Remission (“CR”), Complete Remission with incomplete platelet recovery
+Added: (“CRp”) and Complete Remission with incomplete blood count recovery (“CRi”).
+Added: Prolonged myelosuppression was the
+Added: most common adverse event and was expected as it is a known class effect of CD33 targeting therapies and given the advanced age of the
+Added: patients enrolled.
+Added: The Actimab-A dose was adjusted to 1.5μCi/kg, which produced an ORR of 22%.
+Added: Potent anti-leukemic effect was observed
+Added: at both dose levels.
+Added: Of the patients treated with 1.5 μCi/kg of Actimab-A, the median age was 75 and over 50% of the patients had an
+Added: antecedent hematologic disorder including MDS, chronic myelomonocytic leukemia and myelofibrosis, which can compromise a patient’s
+Added: bone marrow function and ability to recover blood counts and proper function.
+Added: This trial was conducted prior to the approval of many of
+Added: the targeted therapies that are routinely used in the treatment of patients with AML today.
+Added: As a result of the prolonged myelosuppression
+Added: seen with doses of Ac-225 directed against CD33 expressing cells and the evolving AML treatment landscape, we adapted our development
+Added: strategy for Actimab-A to address the emerging unmet needs of patients in the era of precision medicines for AML.
+Added: Anti-Leukemic Activity
+Added: of Actimab-A Monotherapy
+Added: After completing the Phase
+Added: 2 monotherapy trial, there was strong interest from trial investigators and other key opinion leaders to study Actimab-A in combination
+Added: with other treatment modalities to leverage its novel mutation agnostic radiotherapy mechanism.
+Added: We evaluated several clinical trial concepts
+Added: and elected to pursue combination trials with Actimab-A with the salvage chemotherapy CLAG-M in patients with r/r AML and with the Bcl-2
+Added: inhibitor Venetoclax based on the potential for these combinations to address large segments of the AML patient population with high unmet
+Added: Actimab-A + Venetoclax Phase 1/2 Combination
+Added: Venetoclax is an oral therapy
+Added: that works by attaching to and blocking the actions of the B-cell lymphoma-2 (“Bcl-2”) protein.
+Added: Bcl-2 is overexpressed in
+Added: several blood cancers and prevents cancer cells from undergoing normal programmed cell death or apoptosis, which can help the cancer cells
+Added: overexpressing Bcl-2 live longer or increase resistance to chemotherapy.
+Added: In November 2018, Venetoclax received accelerated approval from
+Added: the FDA in combination with the HMA azacitidine and decitabine or low-dose cytarabine for the treatment of newly diagnosed AML in patients
+Added: age 75 years or older or patients ineligible for intensive induction chemotherapy.
+Added: Venetoclax was granted regular approval by the FDA
+Added: in October 2020.
+Added: The Phase 1 portion of the
+Added: Actimab-A + Venetoclax trial enrolled 18 patients and was conducted at five clinical trial sites.
+Added: Four dose levels of Actimab-A were evaluated
+Added: with the primary objective of evaluating the safety of the combination.
+Added: Actimab-A + Venetoclax was well tolerated with an expected and
+Added: manageable adverse event profile with no early deaths observed.
+Added: Efficacy was also evaluated with reduction in bone marrow blasts up to
+Added: 93% reported.
+Added: Actimab-A + CLAG-M Phase 1b/2 Combination
+Added: The Medical College of Wisconsin
+Added: (“MCW”) was an active clinical trial site in the Phase 2 Actimab-A Monotherapy trial.
+Added: MCW had previously conducted a study
+Added: evaluating salvage chemotherapies in patients with r/r AML including the regimens MEC, CLAG and CLAG-M.
+Added: The results demonstrated that
+Added: CLAG-M produced superior outcomes based on rates of response and overall survival resulting in CLAG-M being the preferred salvage regimen
+Added: for patients with r/r AML.
+Added: Based on MCWs experience with Actimab-A and CLAG-M, the team at MCW hypothesized that combining Actimab-A with
+Added: CLAG-M could improve patient outcomes compared to CLAG-M alone and lead to a clinical benefit by eliminating residual or resistant AML
+Added: blasts to produce higher rates of remissions and deep remissions including measurable residual disease (“MRD”) negativity.
+Added: MCW enrolled 26 adult patients
+Added: with high-risk r/r AML in the Phase 1b/2 trial of Actimab-A + CLAG-M with 23 patients evaluable for efficacy.
+Added: Patients in the efficacy
+Added: cohort had a median age of 62 and 91.3% of patients being intermediate risk (13%) or adverse risk (78.3%) according to the 2017 ELN cytogenetic
+Added: risk classification.
+Added: Additionally, 52.2% of patients had a TP53 mutation abnormality, 56.5% of patients had prior Venetoclax treatment
+Added: and 56.5% of patients had a prior allogeneic BMT with patients having a median of 2 lines of prior treatment (range:
+Added: evaluated four dose levels of Actimab-A in combination with CLAG-M ranging from 0.25 μCi/kg to 1.0 μCi/kg.
+Added: Patient Characteristics
+Added: The results from this trial
+Added: were published in the peer-reviewed journal Leukemia in February 2025.
+Added: In this publication, it was reported that Actimab-A + CLAG-M
+Added: had a tolerable safety profile with manageable toxicities and demonstrated promising efficacy supporting additional trials to further
+Added: evaluate the efficacy of the combination including survival outcomes.
+Added: Based on the results of the study, it was determined that 0.75 μCi/kg
+Added: is the recommended Phase 2 dose (“RP2D”).
+Added: In addition to a safety analysis, the results of 5 patients treated in a pharmacokinetic
+Added: expansion cohort at the RP2D were reported.
+Added: Treatment-emergent adverse events (“TEAE”) were primarily hematologic and all
+Added: grade 3/4 TEAEs were hematologic.
+Added: No patients discontinued treatment due to TEAEs and no early deaths were attributed to the Actimab-A
+Added: The pharmacokinetic analysis evaluated radioactivity in whole blood and results showed that Actimab-A cleared rapidly with no
+Added: detectable radioactivity after a median of 24.5 hours.
+Added: Importantly, no significant kidney or liver toxicity has been reported to date
+Added: and no incidences of veno-occlusive disease (“VOD”) reported.
+Added: The efficacy analysis of this
+Added: trial evaluated rates of CR, composite Complete Remission (“CRc”) which includes CR and Complete Remission with Incomplete
+Added: Count Recovery (“CRi”) and ORR which include CR, CRi and Morphologic Leukemia-Free State (“MLFS”), as well as
+Added: MRD negativity and survival outcomes.
+Added: As listed in the table below, CR, CRc and ORR rates were reported for all patients as well as patients
+Added: treated at the RP2D, by number of lines or prior therapy and high-risk patients including those with a TP53 mutation and prior Venetoclax
+Added: Rates of CR, CRc and
+Added: ORR with Actimab-A + CLAG-M
+Added: In patients achieving a CRc,
+Added: MRD negativity was assessed including in patients in various high-risk subgroups.
+Added: Across all patients, the MRD negativity rate was 75%
+Added: and was 100% in patients with prior Venetoclax treatment.
+Added: In the ELN adverse risk patients and those with a TP53 mutation, MRD negativity
+Added: was 86% and 83%, respectively.
+Added: We believe these high rates of MRD negativity support the rationale for conducting this study, which was
+Added: to determine if Actimab-A could deplete residual or resistant AML blasts to produce deep remissions.
+Added: MRD Negativity Rates
+Added: in Evaluable Patients Achieving CRc
+Added: Long-term survival outcomes
+Added: in the evaluable patients receiving Actimab-A + CLAG-M were also reported from this study from a 2-year follow-up.
+Added: In the patients eligible
+Added: for a BMT, 60% of patients successfully received a BMT and had a median Overall Survival (“OS”) of 24 months.
+Added: with one or two lines of prior salvage therapy, the median OS was 18.4 months.
+Added: The median OS in patients with a TP53 mutation or prior
+Added: Venetoclax treatment was 9.6 months and 7.3 months, respectively.
+Added: These survival outcomes compare favorably to outcomes reported in the
+Added: In patients with prior Venetoclax treatment who then received intensive chemotherapy such as CLAG-M, OS has been reported
+Added: to be 2.4 - 4.6 months.
+Added: Overall Survival Outcomes
+Added: with Actimab-A + CLAG-M
+Added: Based on the positive findings
+Added: from this trial, we plan to evaluate Actimab-A + CLAG-M will be evaluated in a pivotal Phase 2/3 trial in patients with r/r AML.
+Added: Actimab-A + CLAG-M Pivotal Phase 2/3 Trial
+Added: We have aligned with the FDA
+Added: on an operationally seamless, randomized pivotal Phase 2/3 trial to compare Actimab-A + CLAG-M to CLAG-M alone in patients with r/r AML.
+Added: Based on our interactions with the FDA, this trial will first complete a Phase 2 portion where the Actimab-A dose will be optimized in
+Added: combination with CLAG-M.
+Added: We expect the Phase 2 portion of this trial to be initiated in 2025.
+Added: Once the optimized Actimab-A dose is determined,
+Added: we expect the trial will seamlessly advance to the Phase 3 portion of the study, which is expected to reduce time and resources required
+Added: compared to separate Phase 2 and Phase 3 studies.
+Added: Actimab-A + CLAG-M Pivotal Phase 2/3 Trial
+Added: The primary endpoint of the
+Added: Phase 3 trial will be Overall Survival.
+Added: Event-Free Survival (“EFS”) and other efficacy measures as well as safety also being
+Added: We are actively seeking potential strategic partners or collaborators to advance this trial.
+Added: Actimab-A NCI CRADA Trials
+Added: In 2023, we entered into a
+Added: CRADA with NCI to develop Actimab-A for the treatment of patients with AML and other hematologic malignancies.
+Added: The NCI will serve as the
+Added: regulatory sponsor for any clinical trials mutually approved by both parties to study Actimab-A, and the CRADA will provide extensive
+Added: support for and accelerate the development of Actimab-A alone or in combination with chemotherapy, immunotherapy, targeted agents and
+Added: other novel combinations.
+Added: The CRADA studies will be overseen by the NCI in collaboration with Actinium’s clinical development team,
+Added: where we have the right to review and approve all protocols and have full rights to all data.
+Added: The NCI CRADA provides for us to supply
+Added: Actimab-A and for NCI to cover all clinical trial execution and development expenses, which we believe will be a cost-efficient approach
+Added: as opposed to a Company sponsored trial and will therefore spare our balance sheet.
+Added: The NCI Cancer Therapy Evaluation Program (“CTEP”),
+Added: which sponsors approximately two thirds of all combination cancer studies, will accept Letters of Intent (“LOIs”) or concepts
+Added: for Phase 1, 2 or 3 studies of Actimab-A in AML and other hematological malignancies.
+Added: In October 2024, the NCI announced
+Added: that its myeloMATCH program was officially open to patient enrollment across the U.S.
+Added: MyeloMATCH is a portfolio of clinical
+Added: trials to test precision medicine treatments for adults with AML or MDS being designed and led by four leading cancer research organizations
+Added: including the Alliance for Clinical Trials in Oncology, Canadian Cancer Trials Group, ECOG-ACRIN Cancer Research Group, and SWOG Cancer
+Added: Research Network in collaboration with the NCI National Clinical Trials Network (“NCTN”).
+Added: Collectively, the myeloMATCH program
+Added: expects to open trials at hundreds of cancer care sites across the U.S.
+Added: and Canada with the goal of enrolling 5,000 or more patients over
+Added: the next several years.
+Added: Under our CRADA with the NCI, Actimab-A is part of the myeloMATCH program and may be included in future clinical
+Added: Actimab-A, Venetoclax & ASTX-727 –
+Added: Frontline AML Triplet Phase 1b Combination Trial
+Added: In March 2025, we announced
+Added: the initiation of the first clinical trial to be conducted under our CRADA by NCI.
+Added: The trial will evaluate the triplet combination comprised
+Added: of Actimab-A, Venetoclax and ASTX-727, a novel oral HMA developed by Taiho Oncology, an Otsuka Holdings company, in frontline AML patients.
+Added: Venetoclax in combination with HMAs (Ven-HMA) is approved for patients with newly diagnosed AML.
+Added: We believe this trial is supported by
+Added: our Actimab-A + Venetoclax combination trial that showed that combination was well-tolerated and showed supportive anti-leukemic activity.
+Added: The frontline AML triplet trial is expected to enroll up to 48 patients who are newly diagnosed with AML that are age 75 and above and
+Added: not eligible for intensive chemotherapy.
+Added: The trial will evaluate various dose levels of Actimab-A along with dosing regimens.
+Added: initial clinical data to be generated from this trial in second half of 2025.
+Added: Triplet Combination Trial Design with Venetoclax,
+Added: HMA & Actimab-A Backbone
+Added: Additional clinical trial concepts for Actimab-A
+Added: have been submitted under the CRADA and are being reviewed.
+Added: We anticipate that additional clinical trials with Actimab-A will be initiated
+Added: in 2025 including under the CRADA to leverage Actimab-A’s mutation agnostic mechanism.
+Added: Broad Development Strategy for Actimab-A
+Added: Data Supporting Actimab-A’s Mutation Agnostic Profile
+Added: To leverage Actimab-A’s
+Added: mutation agnostic capabilities and support its broad development, we have conducted preclinical experiments studying Actimab-A in combination
+Added: with targeted agents including Bcl-2 inhibitors, FLT-3 inhibitors, IDH inhibitors and menin inhibitors for NPM1 and KMT2A AML, chemotherapies
+Added: such as CLAG-M and in cell lines expressing TP53 mutations.
+Added: The table below outlines the expression rates of these targets in patients
+Added: Actimab-A Combination Data with Menin Inhibitors
+Added: In June 2024, we presented
+Added: the first-ever preclinical data demonstrating the combination of Actimab-A with leading menin inhibitors resulted in anti-tumor control
+Added: and potent leukemia cell killing in AML models at the 2024 European Hematology Association (“EHA”) Congress.
+Added: We studied Actimab-A
+Added: in combination with the leading menin inhibitors, revumenib (Syndax Pharmaceuticals, Inc.) and ziftomenib (Kura Oncology, Inc.), which
+Added: are being developed for patients with KMT2A rearrangements and NPM1 mutations, which are present in approximately 10% and 30% of AML patients,
+Added: respectively.
+Added: Actimab-A as a single agent showed potent in vitro AML cell killing activity in both MV-4-11 and MOLM-13 KMT2A mutant cell
+Added: lines, compared to the non-radio conjugated CD33 antibody lintuzumab (p<0.0001) and the combination of Actimab-A with leading menin
+Added: inhibitors triggered an acute increase in AML necrosis and cell death in vivo relative to single agent therapy within 72 hours of dosing.
+Added: Actimab-A enhanced AML cell death when combined with both revumenib and ziftomenib at all dose levels in difficult to treat KMT2A mutant
+Added: Anti-tumor effect was significantly potentiated and prolonged when combining Actimab-A with a leading menin inhibitor compared to
+Added: monotherapies in xenograft leukemia models in vivo (p<0.0024 Actimab-A + menin).
+Added: Enhanced Tumor Control
+Added: with Actimab-A + Menin Inhibitor Revumenib
+Added: Actimab-A Combination Data with FLT3 Inhibitors
+Added: We have also evaluated Actimab-A
+Added: in combination with FLT3 inhibitors such as gilteritinib (Astellas Pharma, Inc.) and midostaurin (Novartis Pharmaceuticals, Inc.).
+Added: is one of the most commonly mutated genes in AML and is associated with aggressive disease with poor outcomes.
+Added: Actimab-A was shown to
+Added: have single-agent activity against FLT3 mutant AML cell lines, supporting its mutation-agnostic mechanism, and enhanced the anti-leukemic
+Added: activity of the FLT3 inhibition in vitro.
+Added: We will continue to evaluate the potential of Actimab-A in combination with FLT3 inhibitors.
+Added: Synergistic Anti-Leukemic
+Added: Effect with FLT3 Inhibitors
+Added: We expect to present additional data supporting
+Added: Actimab-A’s mutation agnostic capabilities and backbone potential at future scientific and medical conferences.
+Added: In addition, we
+Added: will continue to explore potential clinical trials under our CRADA with NCI, investigator-initiated trials or under our sponsorship.
+Added: Actimab-A Solid Tumor Program:
+Added: Potential Pan Solid Tumor Therapy
+Added: in Combination with PD-1 Checkpoint Inhibitors Including KEYTRUDA ® and OPDIVO ® by Depleting Myeloid Derived
+Added: Suppressor Cells
+Added: Given the significant number
+Added: of patients treated with PD-1 ICIs, there is extensive data in the medical literature on outcomes in these patients.
+Added: PD-1 ICIs have significantly
+Added: improved patient outcomes across several solid tumor indications, however, not all patients have robust or durable responses.
+Added: therapeutic modalities have been studied in combination with PD-1 ICIs in attempt to improve patient outcomes, but few combinations have
+Added: produced a sufficient enough clinical benefit to have been approved.
+Added: To our knowledge, our Actimab-A solid tumor program is the only CD33
+Added: targeted radiotherapy being evaluated in combination with PD-1 ICIs.
+Added: The rationale for studying Actimab-A in combination with either KEYTRUDA ® or
+Added: OPDIVO ® is based on the premise that depleting MDSCs with Actimab-A will improve the efficacy of these drugs.
+Added: MDSCs are immune-suppressive cells that help tumors
+Added: evade immune detection and promote disease progression.
+Added: They are overexpressed in the tumor microenvironment in several different solid
+Added: tumors and associated with poor outcomes.
+Added: They work by multiple mechanisms but most relevant to PD-1 inhibitors which work by keeping
+Added: T-cells active is that MDSCs prevent T-cells from recognizing and attacking cancer cells.
+Added: MDSCs Immunosuppressive Effects
+Added: Studies have shown that MDSCs are overexpressed
+Added: in patients with cancers.
+Added: For instance, a study by Bronte et al., in patients with NSCLC receiving ICIs evaluated the role of immune cells
+Added: on patient outcomes.
+Added: In this study, MDSCs were the only immune cell subtype to show a statistically significant association with tumor
+Added: The median level of MDSCs was determined to be 1.9% with patients above that level being classified as “High-MDSC”
+Added: and patients below that level being classified as “Low-MDSC”.
+Added: In this study, only Low-MDSC patients had a clinical response
+Added: with no responses observed in High-MDSC patients and over 80% of High-MDSC patients having progressive disease.
+Added: In addition, Low-MDSC
+Added: patients had a statistically significantly improvement in progression-free survival (“PFS”) of 8.39 months compared to 1.94
+Added: months in High-MDSC patients and OS of 15.15 months compared to 3.03 months in High-MDSC patients.
+Added: There is considerable preclinical scientific evidence
+Added: in the literature that depleting MDSCs could be a viable strategy in improving the outcomes of PD-1 directed immunotherapy, however, there
+Added: have been no viable clinical approaches that have been tried successfully to our knowledge.
+Added: MDSCs are known to express the CD33
+Added: antigen which is the target of Actimab-A.
+Added: Actinium has also generated published and unpublished preclinical data showing that Actimab-A
+Added: can selectively deplete MDSCs in solid tumors.
+Added: Actimab-A Depletes MDSCs
+Added: in In Vivo Preclinical Models
+Added: We believe there is strong
+Added: scientific rationale supporting the potential for Actimab-A to deplete CD33 expressing MDSCs and hence improve patient outcomes with PD-1
+Added: ICIs such as KEYTRUDA ® and OPDIVO ® .
+Added: Our Actimab-A solid tumor program is expected to be comprised of
+Added: several controlled, head-to-head clinical trials that will evaluate the combination of Actimab-A with KEYTRUDA ® versus
+Added: KEYTRUDA ® alone, and Actimab-A with OPDIVO ® versus OPDIVO ® alone.
+Added: tumors that are being targeted are HSNCC and NSCLC with a separate trial for each indication.
+Added: The patient population for
+Added: these trials will be adults with PD-L1 expression and locally advanced metastatic HNSCC or NSCLC randomized to either Actimab-A alone
+Added: or Actimab-A with a specific checkpoint inhibitor.
+Added: The objective of each trial would be to evaluate the safety and tolerability as well
+Added: as following endpoints including ORR, PFS and OS.
+Added: Further, the following biomarker data would be collected including the pattern of depletion
+Added: of CD33+ MDSCs and T-cell activity in peripheral blood.
+Added: We expect to present initial proof of concept clinical data from the first of
+Added: these trials in the second half of 2025 as well as provide an update on the outlook for the rest of the trials for the Actimab-A solid
+Added: tumor program.
+Added: ATNM-400 Program:
+Added: Potential Novel, First-in-Class Ac-225 Prostate
+Added: Cancer Radiotherapy
+Added: In March 2025, we announced
+Added: ATNM-400, a novel, first-in-class Ac-225-based radiotherapy intended for patients with prostate cancer.
+Added: We have generated preclinical
+Added: data with ATNM-400, which has been accepted for presentation at the American Association for Cancer Research (“AACR”) Annual
+Added: Meeting being held April 25 – 30, 2025.
+Added: The abstract accepted for presentation highlighted the following:
+Added: ● ATNM-400 selectively binds to prostate cancer cells, undergoes
+Added: rapid internalization, and induces dose-dependent cytotoxicity;
+Added: ● in prostate cancer xenograft mouse models, ATNM-400 accumulated
+Added: in tumors for up to 144 hours, while showing minimal uptake in normal tissues;
+Added: ● small animal SPECT/CT imaging with Indium-111-labeled antibody
+Added: confirmed selective tumor accumulation and clearance from healthy tissues;
+Added: ● a single dose of ATNM-400 achieved 68.5% tumor growth inhibition
+Added: at 20 µCi/kg and 99.8% at 40 µCi/kg, with all doses being well tolerated.
+Added: We continue to study ATNM-400
+Added: and expect additional data from Pluvicto-resistant prostate cancer models to be presented at AACR.
+Added: Iomab-ACT Program:
+Added: Potential Universal Targeted Conditioning Agent
+Added: for Cell & Gene Therapies to Improve Patient Access and Outcomes
+Added: The opportunity exists for
+Added: better conditioning regimens in the area of cellular therapies beyond the non-targeted chemotherapy-based regimens that are used currently.
+Added: We are working on a next generation targeted conditioning program, Iomab-ACT, for the rapidly growing cell and gene therapy market, as
+Added: well as BMT conditioning for non-malignant hematologic indications such as SCD.
+Added: We are studying Iomab-ACT
+Added: in collaboration with Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (“MSKCC”), for conditioning prior to CAR-T therapy for patients
+Added: with relapsed or refractory B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (“B-ALL”) or diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (“DLBCL”).
+Added: This study funded by a NIH grant is the first study of its kind to use an ARC, with CAR-T therapy.
+Added: At the 2024 Tandem Meetings | Transplantation
+Added: & Cellular Therapy Meetings of ASTCT and CIBMTR, we presented results from the ongoing Phase 1 trial.
+Added: No patients (0/4) developed
+Added: Immune Effector Cell-Associated Neurotoxicity Syndrome (“ICANS”) of any grade, a major safety measure of the study, as ICANS
+Added: is observed in 25% or more of patients with r/r B-ALL and DLBCL treated with various CAR T-cell products and negligible incidence of cytokine
+Added: release syndrome (“CRS”) as outlined in the table below.
+Added: Minimal CRS and ICANS
+Added: in Iomab-ACT Pilot Trial
+Added: Additionally, Iomab-ACT demonstrated
+Added: transient depletion of peripheral blood lymphocytes and monocytes.
+Added: Persistence of CAR T-cells up to 8 weeks and minimal non-hematologic
+Added: toxicities have been observed to date.
+Added: These results prompted us to explore additional clinical trials with Iomab-ACT.
+Added: In May 2024, we announced
+Added: FDA acceptance of an IND for a new Phase 1b/2 clinical trial that will study Iomab-ACT as targeted conditioning prior to patients receiving
+Added: an FDA approved commercial CAR-T therapy.
+Added: This is an investigator sponsored trial conducted at the University of Texas Southwestern (“UTSW”).
+Added: To our knowledge, this will be the first trial to study a targeted radiotherapy conditioning agent with a commercial CAR-T therapy.
+Added: the robust clinical data that exists with commercial CAR-T therapies, we believe this trial may demonstrate the potential for Iomab-ACT
+Added: to improve outcomes over current chemotherapy conditioning regimens, which we are seeking to replace and provide patients better access
+Added: This trial will enroll up to 30 patients and we expect to commence patient enrollment of this study in the first half of 2025
+Added: and generate proof of concept clinical data by year end 2025.
+Added: The primary objectives are safety, tolerability and efficacy.
+Added: objectives will evaluate incidences of CRS and ICANS as well as the persistence and expansion of CAR-T cells, which has been associated
+Added: with improved efficacy and patient outcomes.
+Added: If successful, we believe this Phase 1b/2 trial could support a pivotal trial, which could
+Added: be initiated as early as 2026.
+Added: In July 2024, we announced
+Added: a program for Iomab-ACT focused on providing patients with sickle cell disease broader access to cellular therapies including bone marrow
+Added: transplant and gene therapies.
+Added: We also announced in July 2024 the FDA clearance of an IND for an investigator led clinical trial to study
+Added: Iomab-ACT as targeted conditioning prior to a BMT for patients with SCD in collaboration with Columbia University.
+Added: Sickle cell disease
+Added: is a rare, debilitating and life-threatening blood disorder with significant unmet need that affects approximately 100,000 people in the
+Added: Patients with sickle cell disease have a mutation that causes red blood cells to develop a crescent or “sickle” shape,
+Added: which restrict the flow in blood vessels and limit oxygen delivery to the body’s tissues, leading to severe pain and organ damage
+Added: called vaso-occlusive events (“VOEs”) or vaso-occlusive crises (“VOCs”).
+Added: The recurrence of these events or crises
+Added: can lead to life-threatening disabilities and/or early death.
+Added: A BMT is a potentially curative treatment option for patients with sickle
+Added: cell disease, particularly in pediatric patients who have had complications such as strokes, acute chest crises or recurring pain crises
+Added: due to their disease.
+Added: We expect patient enrollment for the Phase 1 trial to commence in the first half of 2025 and enroll up to 15 patients
+Added: with initial safety and efficacy results from the initial cohort of patients receiving Iomab-ACT prior to a BMT for their SCD in the second
+Added: half of 2025.If safety is demonstrated, the trial is expected to inform a clinical trial to evaluate Iomab-ACT as a targeted conditioning
+Added: agent prior to gene therapy for which there are two approved agents for patients with sickle cell disease, Casgevy (Vertex Pharmaceuticals,
+Added: Inc.) and Lyfgenia (Bluebird Bio, Inc.).
+Added: Iomab-ACT Clinical Trials
+Added: and Objectives
+Added: We plan to continue
+Added: to develop Iomab-ACT based on early promising results, ultimately with the value proposition of improving overall access and outcomes
+Added: for patients who need cellular or gene therapies.
+Added: We believe an opportunity exists for Iomab-ACT to potentially generate significant revenue,
+Added: if it can provide one or more clinical benefits related to lower CRS, less neurotoxicity, longer duration of response or a higher overall
+Added: success rate of cellular therapy due to benefits of targeted conditioning.
+Added: February 2023, Actinium announced that the SIERRA trial met the primary endpoint with statistical significance, as 22% of patients (13/76)
+Added: on the Iomab-B arm achieved dCR compared to 0% of patients (0/77) on the control arm resulting in a p-value of <0.0001.
+Added: trial met the secondary endpoint of Event-Free Survival (“EFS”) with a 78% reduction in the probability of an event (Hazard
+Added: Ratio=0.22, p<0.0001 for both per protocol and ITT basis).
+Added: EFS at 180 days for the Iomab-B arm was 28% compared to 0.2% for the control
+Added: In the SIERRA trial, an event was defined as one of the following:
+Added: a patient not achieving CR/CRp or crossing over, patient not
+Added: receiving BMT, a patient relapsing or death.
+Added: The SIERRA trial did not, however, meet the secondary endpoint in achieving a statistically
+Added: significant improvement in OS in the intent to treat (“ITT”) population.
+Added: August 5, 2024, Actinium announced that it concluded both its clinical and Chemistry, Manufacturing and Controls (“CMC”) interactions
+Added: with the FDA regarding the BLA pathway for Iomab-B based on the SIERRA trial results.
+Added: As previously disclosed, we had received positive
+Added: feedback from the FDA regarding our CMC package for Iomab-B and were also assigned a BLA number.
+Added: However, in the third quarter of 2024,
+Added: the FDA provided definitive feedback that the SIERRA trial alone is not adequate to support a BLA filing for Iomab-B, despite (a) the
+Added: SIERRA trial meeting the primary endpoint of dCR with statistical significance (p-value<0.0001) and other positive secondary endpoints
+Added: including Event Free Survival (“EFS”) and safety, and (b) our presentation of several additional analyses from the SIERRA
+Added: study, including long-term follow-up demonstrating a trend towards improved overall survival and evidence of survival benefit in patients
+Added: with high-risk TP53 mutations, to support Iomab-B’s impact on overall survival.
+Added: The FDA indicated that demonstrating an overall
+Added: survival benefit in a randomized head-to-head trial is necessary and has advised us to conduct a study to evaluate allogeneic BMT using
+Added: Iomab-B plus a reduced intensity conditioning regimen of fludarabine and total body irradiation (“Flu/TBI”) versus allogeneic
+Added: BMT using reduced intensity conditioning comprised of cyclophosphamide plus Flu/TBI.
+Added: This proposed additional study differs from the SIERRA
+Added: trial, which allowed physician’s choice of salvage chemotherapies and heterogenous conditioning regimens in the control arm.
+Added: Additionally,
+Added: the proposed new study will not allow patients to cross over from the control arm, which was allowed in the SIERRA trial and confounded
+Added: the overall survival analysis in the ITT patient population, as nearly 60% of patients crossed over from the control arm.
+Added: continued interactions with the FDA in the third quarter of 2024 to further discuss the specifics of the additional head-to-head clinical
+Added: trial required by the FDA, including the patient population, which the FDA had suggested could include all adult AML patients.
+Added: fourth quarter of 2024, Actinium conducted a further meeting with the FDA.
+Added: Based on this meeting, Actinium believes it has aligned with
+Added: the FDA on the patient population for a head-to-head Phase 3 clinical trial to further evaluate allogeneic BMT using Iomab-B plus a reduced
+Added: intensity conditioning regimen of Flu/TBI versus allogeneic BMT using reduced intensity conditioning comprised of cyclophosphamide plus
+Added: Flu/TBI in all adult patients aged 18 and above with active AML with blasts counts greater than 5% and less than 20%.
+Added: This is a broader
+Added: patient population than the patients enrolled on the SIERRA trial, which only enrolled patients aged 55 and above.
+Added: Further, the FDA now
+Added: requires that an additional dose optimization trial demonstrating safety and efficacy be completed to calculate the dose of Iomab-B based
+Added: on absorbed dose by the bone marrow, rather than the maximum tolerable dose of 24 Gy of radiation to the liver as was done in the SIERRA
+Added: trial based on several interactions we had with the FDA before starting the SIERRA trial.
+Added: We are actively seeking a strategic partner
+Added: for Iomab-B in the U.S.
+Added: to advance the head-to-head clinical trial or other clinical development activity for Iomab-B.
+Added: On April 7, 2022, we entered
+Added: into a License Agreement with Immedica Pharma AB (“Immedica”), pursuant to which Immedica licensed the exclusive product rights
+Added: for commercialization of Iomab-B in certain countries in the EUMENA region.
+Added: Upon signing, we were entitled to an upfront, non-refundable
+Added: payment of $35.0 million from Immedica, which was received in May 2022.
+Added: Under the terms of the License Agreement, we are eligible to receive
+Added: certain regulatory and commercial milestone payments and royalties on net sales of the product in certain countries that may result from
+Added: the License Agreement.
+Added: Immedica is responsible for regulatory submissions in the EUMENA region, and we continue to retain commercialization
rights in the U.S.
and rest of the world.
−Removed: Currently, there are an estimated ~7,200 BMTs for AML in EUMENA, two times that of the U.S.,
−Removed: performed in a concentrated number of centers.
−Removed: The incidence rate of AML in Europe is 3.7 per 100,000, or approximately 27,500 new patients
−Removed: Iomab-B has been granted Orphan Drug Designation by the EMA and has received positive Scientific Advice from EMA prior to the
−Removed: start of the SIERRA trial.
−Removed: Immedica has had rapporteur and co-rapporteur meetings to discuss the SIERRA trial clinical and CMC data, and
−Removed: based on these meetings is proceeding with its MAA filing for Iomab-B.
−Removed: Background on Iomab-B
−Removed: Iomab-B is a first-in-class
−Removed: ARC consisting of apamistamab, an anti-CD45 mouse antibody conjugated to radioactive I-131 designed to deliver targeted myeloablative
−Removed: radiation to malignant and hematopoietic cells prior to allogeneic BMT.
−Removed: CD45 is uniquely expressed on blood cancer, immune and bone marrow
−Removed: stem cells at high levels.
−Removed: Targeting CD45 enables delivery of high radiation doses directly to the bone marrow, with a median of 16 gray
−Removed: and as high as 44.6 gray in the SIERRA trial, while minimizing radiation exposure to vital organs such as lungs, heart and gastrointestinal
−Removed: tract, thereby producing myeloablative outcomes with an overall better safety profile and the tolerability of a reduced intensity regimen.
−Removed: I-131 is a beta- and gamma-emitting radioisotope that works on the cell surface and does not need to be internalized.
−Removed: Developed at the
−Removed: Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center (“FHCRC”), Iomab-B has been studied in multiple disease indications including leukemias,
−Removed: lymphomas, MDS, and MM.
−Removed: Over 300 patients received Iomab-B through prior studies, demonstrating the potential for unprecedented access
−Removed: to BMT, improved survival and tolerability, and we intend to use these data as we plan for label expansion of Iomab-B.
−Removed: Iomab-B has been
−Removed: granted Orphan Drug Designation from the FDA and has patent protection into 2037.
−Removed: Actimab-A – CD33 targeting ARC –
−Removed: mutation agnostic mechanism of action has potential as combination backbone therapy in highly radiosensitive, mutation rich AML
−Removed: Our Actimab-A ( 225 Ac-lintuzumab
−Removed: satetraxetan) program is focused on developing combinations with other AML treatment regimens with mechanistic synergies to establish
−Removed: Actimab-A as a backbone therapy, using the mutation-agnostic mechanism of action of Actimab-A.
−Removed: There is no known resistance mechanism
−Removed: to targeted ARCs, making Actimab-A a candidate for a variety of combinations.
−Removed: The scientific rationale is to use CLAG-M, a powerful chemotherapy
−Removed: regimen routinely used to treat patients with r/r AML, and then use Actimab-A for its precision-targeting ability that produces double-strand-DNA
−Removed: breaks that lead to cancer cell death to clear out residual disease.
−Removed: Actimab-A has demonstrated clinically significant survival benefit
−Removed: in a proof-of-concept study and is poised for advanced development in collaboration with the NCI.
−Removed: We expect the NCI to initiate further
−Removed: development of Actimab-A in combination with CLAG-M and other targeted agents to broaden the scope of its development in r/r AML.
−Removed: Actimab-A + CLAG-M Phase 1 Study Results
−Removed: In collaboration with the
−Removed: Medical College of Wisconsin, the Actimab-A + CLAG-M Phase 1 trial was conducted in r/r AML patients fit for intensive therapy.
−Removed: patients had a median age of 63, failed two or more lines of therapy, which includes 57% having received prior treatment with venetoclax,
−Removed: a BCL-2 inhibitor.
−Removed: 67% of these patients had adverse cytogenetics, 52% had a TP53 mutation, and 57% had a prior BMT.
−Removed: Median OS is typically
−Removed: two to four months for this patient population, with a median OS of less than 3 months for patients who relapsed following venetoclax
−Removed: and a median OS less than 2 months for those with a TP53 mutation.
−Removed: In this difficult-to-treat
−Removed: r/r AML population, the results demonstrate its potential.
−Removed: We reported 1-year survival of 53% and 2-year survival of 32%, which are as
−Removed: much as double what can be expected with currently available therapies.
−Removed: The trial showed an Overall Response Rate (“ORR”)
−Removed: of 65% across all dose cohorts, 52% complete remission rate, and a 75% MRD negativity rate.
−Removed: As highlighted in the figure below, the results
−Removed: are encouraging and show that the high rates of responses and MRD negativity are translating to a meaningful survival benefit in these
−Removed: difficult-to-treat patients, who would otherwise have dismal outcomes.
−Removed: Actimab-A + CLAG-M –Response and Survival
−Removed: Benefit in r/r AML
−Removed: Actimab-A + CLAG-M Compared to CLAG-M Alone
−Removed: Efficacy of CLAG-M has been
−Removed: reported in older studies (Halpern and Walter.
−Removed: CLAG-M with dose-escalated mitoxantrone for adults with acute myeloid leukemia.
−Removed: 2018 and Mushtaq et al.
−Removed: Comparison of Salvage Chemotherapy Regimens in Relapsed/Refractory Acute Myeloid Leukemia.
−Removed: ASH 2018) in patients
−Removed: with r/r AML, however, almost all of these studies were conducted in the pre-targeted therapy era, where no patients enrolled had prior
−Removed: venetoclax-based therapy, thus efficacy data of CLAG-M in the current era, in patients exposed to prior venetoclax, or with other high-risk
−Removed: features, is limited.
−Removed: When combined with Actimab-A, the combination has demonstrated a clinically significant survival benefit in a proof-of-concept
−Removed: study irrespective of prior targeted treatment.
−Removed: R/R AML after failing venetoclax-based therapy is associated with dismal survival outcomes,
−Removed: with a median OS of less than 3 months.
−Removed: In comparison, the combination trial of Actimab-A + CLAG-M led to 1-year survival of 59% and 2-year
−Removed: survival of 32% in patients who failed prior venetoclax-based therapy, which compares favorably to the traditional outcomes in these patients.
−Removed: On September 6, 2023, updated data from the Actimab-A + CLAG-M combination trial was presented at SOHO where 1-year OS for patients with
−Removed: prior venetoclax treatment was 46% and 48% in all patients receiving Actimab-A + CLAG-M treatment.
−Removed: In patients who received a transplant,
−Removed: the median OS was 24 months or more.
−Removed: Actimab-A + venetoclax Phase 1/2 Study Results
−Removed: We are conducting a Phase 1/2 multi-center trial combining Actimab-A
−Removed: + venetoclax in both fit and unfit patients 18 years and older with r/r AML led by UCLA Medical Center.
−Removed: Data from our Actimab-A + venetoclax
−Removed: combination trial was presented at the 2022 ASH Annual Meeting.
−Removed: We have demonstrated preclinically that combinations of Actimab-A and
−Removed: venetoclax have mechanistic synergies.
−Removed: Overexpression of MCL-1, an anti-apoptotic protein, is associated with resistance to venetoclax
−Removed: Actimab-A kills tumors cells with DNA double-strand breaks and downregulates MCL-1, which can (re-)sensitize AML cells or reduce
−Removed: tumor resistance to venetoclax.
−Removed: The Actimab-A + venetoclax combination has been well tolerated with responses, including a CR and a partial
−Removed: response in early dose escalation cohorts.
−Removed: Based on the acceptable safety of Actimab-A in combination with venetoclax, we are investigating
−Removed: various approaches to further evaluate the safety and efficacy of Actimab-A in combination with venetoclax and HMA in newly diagnosed
−Removed: AML patients.
−Removed: Further Development for Actimab-A
−Removed: In February 2023, we announced
−Removed: that we entered into a CRADA with the NCI, part of the NIH, to develop Actimab-A for the treatment of patients with AML and other hematologic
−Removed: malignancies.
−Removed: The NCI will serve as the regulatory sponsor for any clinical trials mutually approved by both parties to study Actimab-A,
−Removed: and the CRADA is expected to provide support for the development of Actimab-A alone or in combination with chemotherapy, immunotherapy,
−Removed: targeted agents and other novel combinations.
−Removed: The CRADA studies will be overseen by the NCI in collaboration with Actinium’s clinical
−Removed: development team, where Actinium has the right to review and approve all protocols and has full rights to all data.
−Removed: This broad collaboration
−Removed: may accelerate our Actimab-A development efforts with access to NCI’s vast network of over 2,000 clinical trial sites and its Myelomatch
−Removed: We expect the NCI to initiate further development of Actimab-A in combination with CLAG-M and other targeted agents to broaden
−Removed: the scope of its development in r/r AML.
−Removed: To realize the broader development potential for Actimab-A, we are also examining the role of
−Removed: Actimab-A as a maintenance therapy for various indications through our R&D efforts.
−Removed: We are exploring the broader opportunity with our Actimab-A program
−Removed: and the potential use of Actimab-A in solid tumor indications through our R&D efforts.
−Removed: CD33-expressing MDSCs are present within the
−Removed: tumor microenvironment and exert immunosuppressive effects, and we believe that Actimab-A can play an important role in the tumor microenvironment
−Removed: by depleting MDSCs in a targeted manner.
−Removed: In April 2023, we presented data at the AACR Annual Meeting that we believe support the potential
−Removed: role of Actimab-A to overcome immunosuppression by MDSCs in the tumor microenvironment.
−Removed: We believe our preclinical findings show promise
−Removed: with regard to Actimab-A’s ability to selectively deplete CD33-expressing MDSCs in both lung, colorectal, and other cancers, which
−Removed: we intend to explore further via clinical development.
−Removed: Actimab-A also demonstrated statistically significant depletion of human MDSCs
−Removed: compared to Mylotarg, a CD33-targeted ADC in colorectal cancer (p<0.01), highlighting the powerful cytotoxicity and potential therapeutic
−Removed: benefit of radiotherapy compared to naked antibodies or ADCs.
−Removed: Actimab-A demonstrates the advantages of ARCs over ADCs by utilizing the
−Removed: power of radiation, against which cells have no known resistance or repair mechanism.
−Removed: Radiation can cause double stranded breaks in DNA
−Removed: which lead to cancer cell death.
−Removed: MDSCs are ubiquitous across multiple cancer indications and with the substantial number of immunotherapies
−Removed: in development or currently in clinical use, we believe our data may support the potential for Actimab-A, if ultimately approved for commercialization
−Removed: for such indication, to be a backbone therapy that could broadly improve antitumor activity of immunotherapies such as checkpoint inhibitors
−Removed: and T and NK cell therapies and other therapeutic modalities in multiple solid tumor indications.
−Removed: Additional preclinical data evaluating
−Removed: Actimab-A for the targeting of MDSCs was presented at the SITC 38 th Annual Meeting on November 4, 2023, highlighting Actimab-A’s
−Removed: ability to target and deplete MDSCs and restore T cell proliferation and effector response.
−Removed: SPECT/CT imaging confirmed uptake of Actimab-A
−Removed: in a humanized non-small cell lung cancer model, indicating enrichment of CD33+ MDSCs in the tumor microenvironment.
−Removed: SPECT/CT imaging
−Removed: confirmed uptake of Actimab-A in a humanized non-small cell lung cancer model, indicating enrichment of CD33+ MDSCs in the tumor microenvironment.
−Removed: Background on Actimab-A
−Removed: Actimab-A, an ARC comprised of the anti-CD33 antibody linked to the
−Removed: potent alpha-emitting radioisotope Ac-225.
−Removed: Actimab-A targets CD33, which is expressed in virtually all malignant cells in patients with
−Removed: AML regardless of cytogenetics or mutations and enables potent alpha radiation to be directed against radiosensitive AML cells.
−Removed: cells have no known resistance or repair mechanisms when hit with the alpha particles from the Ac-225 isotope payload, which cause double
−Removed: stranded DNA breaks.
−Removed: We believe Actimab-A is the first radiotherapeutic for r/r AML and has the unique value proposition of broad applicability,
−Removed: a differentiated mechanism of action, and targeted precision that is well-tolerated with minimal non-hematologic toxicity.
−Removed: Our CD33 development
−Removed: program is driven by data obtained from approximately 150 AML patients in six trials and demonstrated single agent activity with high
−Removed: response rates.
−Removed: A combination strategy was considered appropriate given the changing treatment landscape of AML;
−Removed: hence, based on presumed
−Removed: mechanistic synergies, an investigator-initiated trial of Actimab-A + CLAG-M and a company-sponsored Actimab-A + venetoclax were developed
−Removed: and patients were enrolled into these studies.
−Removed: Conditioning Focused Programs
−Removed: We will further expand the
−Removed: ARC pipeline with our Iomab-B franchise by focusing on lifecycle management for label enhancement and indication expansion.
−Removed: in five additional hematologic indications (i.e., MDS, ALL, HL, NHL, and MM) provide the foundation to explore indication expansion opportunities
−Removed: to increase the total addressable market for Iomab-B.
−Removed: Across early trials at the FHCRC, Iomab-B demonstrated similar improved access to
−Removed: BMT and outcomes.
−Removed: We will leverage these data with strong results from the pivotal Phase 3 SIERRA trial to execute a comprehensive life
−Removed: cycle management strategy to further expand Iomab-B’s role in a variety of malignant and non-malignant hematological disorders.
−Removed: We will continue to develop the Iomab-B franchise to potentially address a broader market opportunity to address the over 165,000 patients
−Removed: diagnosed with cancers (e.g., leukemia, lymphoma, and myeloma), who could potentially benefit from transplant, but are unable to access
−Removed: Iomab-ACT is our next generation
−Removed: ARC comprised of apamistamab, the same anti-CD45 antibody as Iomab-B, but utilizes lower, nonmyeloablative levels of I-131 to achieve
−Removed: lymphodepletion for cellular therapies such as CAR-T or reduced intensity conditioning for gene therapies.
−Removed: We intend to continue to develop
−Removed: the Iomab-ACT program designed specifically for use prior to CAR-T and gene therapies, ultimately with a value proposition of improving
−Removed: overall access and outcomes for patients who need cellular or gene therapies.
−Removed: Preclinical data showed a
−Removed: single, low-dose of Iomab-ACT demonstrated lymphodepletion and as CD45 positive immune cells are implicated in major CAR-T side effects,
−Removed: i.e., CRS and ICANS, Iomab-ACT has the potential to be developed as a conditioning agent for CAR-T therapies.
−Removed: CRS and ICANS remain two
−Removed: most common toxicities of CAR-T therapies with severe cases (>Grade 3) seen in >20% of patients and fatality rates between 0-10%.
−Removed: Due to its effect on host monocytes/macrophages, we believe conditioning with Iomab-ACT will potentially reduce the incidence of CRS and
−Removed: Unlike chemotherapy, Iomab-ACT
−Removed: is targeted in nature, and we expect it to potentially promote improved CAR-T cell expansion, resulting in responses that are higher and
−Removed: more durable.
−Removed: We believe our Iomab-ACT program is highly differentiated when compared to Flu/Cy or other chemotherapy-based regimens that
−Removed: are used as standard practice today for lymphodepletion prior to cell therapy.
−Removed: We are studying Iomab-ACT in collaboration with MSKCC, for conditioning
−Removed: prior to CAR-T therapy for patients with relapsed or refractory B-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (“B-ALL”) or DLBCL.
−Removed: study funded by a NIH grant is the first study of its kind to use an ARC, or radiotherapeutic-based conditioning regimen, with CAR-T therapy.
−Removed: In October 2023, we announced the extension of a NIH Small Business Technology Transfer grant to support the clinical collaboration with
−Removed: Most recently, at the 2024 Tandem Meetings, we presented results from the ongoing phase 1 trial.
−Removed: No patients (0/4) developed ICANS
−Removed: of any grade, a major safety measure of the study, as ICANS is observed in 25% or more of patients with r/r B-ALL and DLBCL treated with
−Removed: various CAR T-cell products and negligible incidence of CRS.
−Removed: Iomab-ACT demonstrated transient depletion of peripheral blood lymphocytes
−Removed: and monocytes.
−Removed: Persistence of CAR T-cells up to 8 weeks and minimal non-hematologic toxicities have been observed to date.
−Removed: In March 2024, we announced a clinical trial to study Iomab-ACT with an
−Removed: FDA approved commercial CAR T-cell therapy, which will be led by investigators at the University of Texas Southwestern.
−Removed: To our knowledge
−Removed: this will be the first trial to study a targeted radiotherapy conditioning agent with a commercial CAR-T therapy.
−Removed: UT Southwestern expects
−Removed: to start recruiting patients following FDA review and clearance of the study.
−Removed: Currently, there are six CAR-T therapies approved to treat
−Removed: patients with leukemias, lymphomas and multiple myeloma that had combined annual sales of over $3.5 billion in 2023.
−Removed: Given the robust
−Removed: clinical data that exists with commercial CAR-T therapies, we believe this trial may demonstrate Iomab-ACT’s potential to improve
−Removed: outcomes over current chemotherapy conditioning regiments we are seeking to replace.
−Removed: We believe an opportunity exists for Iomab-ACT to
−Removed: potentially generate significant revenue, if it can provide one or more clinical benefits related to lower CRS, less neurotoxicity, longer
−Removed: duration of response or a higher overall success rate of cellular therapy due to benefits of targeted conditioning.
−Removed: R&D and Preclinical ARC Programs
−Removed: Our R&D capabilities have the potential to yield differentiated,
−Removed: high-value ARC programs that demonstrate our experience across multiple validated cancer targets and isotopes and cover broad areas of
−Removed: focus leveraging our clinical development experience across hematology, targeted conditioning, solid tumors, and next generation radiotherapies.
−Removed: We develop ARC product candidates that target antigens that are expressed on certain cancer cell types and are able to destroy cellular
−Removed: DNA and kill these cells with the energy that they emit.
−Removed: The efficacy of ARCs does not require internalization and stable linkers minimize
−Removed: off-target toxicity of the payload.
−Removed: Our R&D programs inform
−Removed: the advancement of our Iomab-B, Actimab-A, and Iomab-ACT clinical programs.
−Removed: We have utilized our technology platform to develop our clinical
−Removed: portfolio in hematology – Iomab-B and Actimab-A, in conditioning for transplant and as a therapeutic, respectively.
−Removed: Our differentiated
−Removed: R&D efforts are further exemplified by our next-generation Iomab-ACT conditioning program for rapidly growing cell and gene therapies.
−Removed: Our platform has been used to develop a pipeline of novel radiotherapeutic assets to drive company growth.
−Removed: We are working on several preclinical
−Removed: programs which include novel approaches to validated cancer targets, as well as novel targets that we believe to show immense potential
−Removed: for radiotherapeutic approaches.
−Removed: Preclinical pharmacology studies with our targeted radiotherapeutics, such as HER2, CD33 and CD38, have
−Removed: shown strong improvement in tumor growth inhibition in various preclinical tumor models.
−Removed: These results have prompted our R&D team
−Removed: to spearhead efforts in multiple solid tumor programs in the preclinical stage with IND enabling studies underway.
−Removed: Leveraging Actinium’s
−Removed: platform and expertise in developing ARCs, we are exploring how nanobodies, single chain variable fragment (“scFv”), and other
−Removed: related modalities can be combined with novel linkers and radioisotopes to enhance delivery to solid tumors.
−Removed: We currently believe that Actinium’s ARCs are less likely than small
−Removed: molecules to face pricing pressure and negotiation from IRA, given that small molecules are at risk for pricing negotiations seven years
−Removed: after approval compared to eleven years for biologics with negotiated prices taking effect two years after selection.

−Removed: For this reason, only the biosimilar approach pertains to ARCs filed under 351(k) BLA pathway.
−Removed: regulatory pathway for biosimilar is much more comprehensive than the pathway for generics, and it has not been proven that biosimilars
