Protara Presenting Positive Results from the Ongoing Phase 2 ADVANCED-2 Trial of TARA-002 at SUO
DENVER, Colo., Dec 05, 2024 (247marketnews.com)- Protara Therapeutics (NASDAQ: TARA) presented results from its ongoing Phase 2 open-label ADVANCED-2 trial, assessing intravesical TARA-002, the Company’s investigational cell-based therapy, in high-risk Non-Muscle Invasive Bladder Cancer (NMIBC) patients with carcinoma in situ or CIS (± Ta/T1) who are Bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG)-Unresponsive or BCG-Naïve.
TARA-002 demonstrated a complete response (CR) rate across BCG exposures of 72% (13/18) at six months and 70% (14/20) at any time with 100% (9/9) of patients maintaining a CR from three months to six months, while two of three patients maintained a CR at nine months.
These results will be featured, during a poster session, at the 25th Annual Meeting of the Society of Urologic Oncology (SUO) in Dallas, Texas.
Brian Mazzarella, MD, Urology America’s Vice President of Research and ADVANCED-2 study investigator, exclaimed, “These impressive TARA-002 results demonstrate meaningful activity in a difficult to treat patient population. The activity of TARA-002 across BCG exposures, coupled with its ease of use and low procedural burden for physicians, make it an exciting potential treatment option for NMIBC patients.”
Jesse Shefferman, CEO of Protara Therapeutics, added, “We are thrilled with these positive six-month data, which reinforce TARA-002’s potential in NMIBC, while offering a compelling product profile for physicians and patients. We believe these encouraging data together with our international site expansion will accelerate patient enrollment, and we look forward to reporting initial data from 12-month evaluable patients in mid-2025.”
