LUND, Sweden, Aug. 20, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- BioInvent International AB's (publ) (OMXS: BINV) partner Oxurion NV has today reported topline data from a Phase lla study evaluating THR-317, a humanized antibody against placental growth factor (PlGF), in combination with anti-VEGF (ranibizumab), an anti-vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) antibody, for the treatment of Diabetic Macular Edema (DME).

  • Combination therapy did not show increase in best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) in the overall population at Month 3.
  • Certain improvement in mean BCVA at Month 3 observed with the combination therapy in 2 pre-specified subgroups:
  • poor (or non) responders to prior anti-VEGF
  • patients with poor vision - baseline BCVA ≤65 letters.
  • Topline data confirm THR-317 in combination with ranibizumab is safe and well-tolerated.

In 2017, Oxurion NV gained full and exclusive ownership of THR-317 for development and commercialization in all non-oncology indications. In exchange, BioInvent is entitled to five percent of the program's economic value.

The press release contains statements about the future, consisting of subjective assumptions and forecasts for future scenarios. Predictions for the future only apply as the date they are made and are, by their very nature, in the same way as research and development work in the biotech segment, associated with risk and uncertainty. With this in mind, the actual outcome may deviate significantly from the scenarios described in this press release.
