TransCode Therapeutics Initiates Phase 2a Clinical Trial
TransCode Therapeutics announced the initiation of its Phase 2a clinical trial. The study is to evaluate TransCode's lead therapeutic candidate, TTX-MC138, in patients with circulating tumor DNA positive colorectal cancer following curative-intent therapy. The trial is being conducted in collaboration with Quantum Leap Healthcare Collaborative, sponsor of the PRE-I-SPY clinical trial platform. The trial builds on growing clinical and scientific momentum supporting ctDNA-guided strategies targeting minimal residual disease in colorectal cancer. The Phase 2a clinical trial is expected to enroll up to 45 patients with colorectal cancer who have completed standard curative-intent therapy and have no radiographic evidence of disease, but remain or become ctDNA-positive, indicating the presence of minimal residual disease.
