Sirnaomics Ltd., a major participant in the field of biopharmaceuticals specializing in the exploration and progress of therapeutics utilizing RNAi, proclaimed that the team has thoroughly dispatched all dosage regimens for their STP707 Phase I examination designed for treating numerous solid tumors in patients grappling with profound variety of advanced cancers, unresponsive to multiple courses of alternative oncology therapies. A striking 74% of assessable patients showcased a premier response of steady disease also, several patients displayed a decrease in tumor load as per the imperative Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors.

CEO, President, and Chairman of Sirnaomics, Dr. Patrick Lu, announced, "For the first time in the RNAi cancer therapeutics arena, a Phase I study has portrayed an extremely optimistic clinical possibility for metastasized tumors. We noticed patients attaining steady disease condition with a handful experiencing a shrinkage in tumor capacity after STP707 treatment." He added that the findings from this basket study urge the pursuit of STP707 as a potential solitary medication or as a joint cure with immune check point inhibitor drugs.

The basket study involved the participation of 50 patients affected by advanced solid tumors inclusive of pancreatic cancer, liver cancer, colon cancer, ovarian cancer, and melanoma. All these patients had demonstrated progressive disease post previous rounds of treatment using market available oncology pharmaceuticals. Preliminary efficacy observations indicated that 74% of assessable patients demonstrated a premier response of stable disease with several patients showing a decrease in tumor load per RECIST.

The clinical examination was a collaborative effort of numerous esteemed cancer institutions in the US including Mayo Clinic Oncology, Yale Cancer Center, Next Oncology, Emory Cancer Center, and University of Southern California/Hoag. The multicentre, label-free, dose amplification study was aimed at evaluating the safety, tolerability, and anti-cancer activity of STP707. The entrants received doses ranging from 3mg to 48mg via intravenous administration once every week, making up four doses over a period of 28 days. The cure will continue until the patients display progressive disease.

Sirnaomics' Chief Medical Officer, Dr. Michael Molyneaux, remarked, "STP707 has demonstrated a strong safety profile compared to other emerging oncology therapeutics, with 74% of assessable patients displaying a premier response of stable disease and a few patients showing a reduction in tumor load per RECIST." He emphasized that the group of patients in the study were previous recipients of multiple treatments, all of which proved unsuccessful. The promising safety profile combined with the response duration encourages the team to proceed with the study.

Additional details of the clinical trial are available under the identifier NCT05037149 at clinicaltrials.gov. STP707 consists of two siRNA oligonucleotides, focused on TGF-β1 + COX-2 mRNA respectively, designed in nanoparticles with a Histidine-Lysine Co-Polymer (HKP+H) peptide acting as the carrier. Its carrier peptide is distinct from that used in Sirnaomics' STP705 product. Each separate siRNA was verified to restrict the expression of their objective mRNAs, and their combination results in a synergistic effect reducing pro-inflammatory factors. When delivered through IV, STP707 resulted in the shutdown of TGF-β1 and COX-2 gene expressions in several organs, including the liver, lungs and xenograft tumor in preclinical studies.
