Title: Bria-OTS+™ immunotherapy platform: Harnessing gene-modified tumor cells to reinvigorate the cancer immunity cycle for precision anti-tumor responses
Abstract Presentation Number: 6753
BriaCell has designed Bria-OTS+™, an immunotherapy platform representing the next generation (enhanced version) of Bria-OTS™, BriaCell's personalized off-the-shelf (i.e. pre-manufactured and ready for use) immunotherapy for cancer. Bria-OTS+™ immunotherapy expresses multiple immune activating cytokines and co-stimulatory molecules in addition to immune boosting granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF). BriaCell expects to use Bria-OTS+™ and Bria-PROS+™ in its upcoming phase 1/2a clinical studies for breast and prostate cancer, respectively. Bria-PROS+™ has already entered GMP manufacturing to generate clinical supplies for the phase 1/2a study. The characteristics of the next generation Bria-OTS+™ immunotherapy platform include the following:
Given ease of administration, potent, multi-faceted immune system activation, and favorable safety profile, BriaCell expects Bria-OTS+™ and Bria-PROS+™ to deliver significant clinical efficacy and survival benefits in breast cancer and prostate cancer, respectively.
