(NASDAQ&#58; ONCY, Oncolytics) (TSX&#58; ONC), a clinical-stage immunotherapeutics company focused on oncology, today announced the poster presentation of interim results from the Phase 1&#47;2 GOBLET study evaluating a combination treatment of pelareorep in patients with third-line (3L) metastatic colorectal cancer (CRC) regardless of microsatellite instability status at the European Society for Medical Oncology meeting (ESMO 2023), taking place in Madrid, Spain. </font></div><div style="text-align:justify"><font><br></font></div><div style="text-align:justify"><font style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:11pt;font-weight:400;line-height:100%">&#8220;The results presented at ESMO met the criteria to advance the study to the next stage, with 4 of 14 enrolled patients demonstrating stable disease at week 16. These data demonstrated a 40% overall disease control rate and provided further encouraging data for pelareorep,&#8221; said Dr. Matt Coffey, President and Chief Executive Officer of Oncolytics. &#8220;In a patient population that had failed multiple rounds of treatment, we continue to see pelareorep&#8217;s ability to synergize with atezolizumab by generating an immune response, including the expansion of T cell clones. The translational data from this cohort are consistent with the observed clinical response, providing further support for pelareorep&#8217;s mechanism of action as a potential backbone immunotherapy for patients with gastrointestinal and other forms of cancer.&#8221; </font></div><div style="text-align:justify"><font><br></font></div><div style="text-align:justify"><font style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:11pt;font-weight:400;line-height:100%">&#8220;We designed the GOBLET study to evaluate pelareorep&#8217;s ability to improve clinical outcomes in different gastrointestinal cancers, including at different disease stages, and to better understand pelareorep&#8217;s mechanism of action by generating strong translational data. The data from this arm of the study demonstrate that pelareorep is taken up by tumor cells and stimulates T cell expansion even in heavily pre-treated colorectal cancer patients,&#8221; said Thomas Heineman, M.D., Ph.D., Chief Medical Officer at Oncolytics. &#8220;These patients demonstrated a 40% disease control rate, a progression-free survival of 2.8 months, a median overall survival of 8.0 months, and a 12-month survival rate of 33%, exceeding historical results</font><font style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:7.15pt;font-weight:400;line-height:100%;position:relative;top:-3.85pt;vertical-align:baseline">1-3</font><font style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:11pt;font-weight:400;line-height:100%">. These findings are encouraging given that exhaustion of tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes, resulting from late stage of disease and extensive prior chemotherapy, may have limited their ability to expand in response to treatment. Notably, this is the second GOBLET study cohort in a row that has met its success criteria, further supporting pelareorep&#8217;s ability to synergize with atezolizumab. These data also support pelareorep&#8217;s immunologic mechanism of action and will inform our plans for further development.&#8221;</font></div><div style="text-align:justify"><font><br></font></div><div style="text-align:justify"><font style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:11pt;font-weight:700;line-height:100%">GOBLET Study 3L Metastatic CRC Patient Overview&#58; </font></div><div style="text-align:justify"><font style="color:#000000;font-family:'Times New Roman',sans-serif;font-size:11pt;font-weight:400;line-height:100%">Patients in the CRC cohort, presented at ESMO 2023, are undergoing third-line treatment with a combination of pelareorep, atezolizumab, and trifluridine&#47;tipiracil.
