ArriVent Doses First Patient in Global Phase 3 ALPACCA Study for Firmonertinib
ArriVent BioPharma announced that the first patient has been dosed in the global pivotal Phase 3 ALPACCA study evaluating firmonertinib monotherapy for first-line treatment of EGFR PACC mutant non-small cell lung cancer, NSCLC. "Initiation of our pivotal Phase 3 ALPACCA trial marks an important milestone in our strategy to expand the global reach of firmonertinib," said Bing Yao, Ph.D., Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of ArriVent. "Patients with EGFR PACC mutant NSCLC currently have limited treatment options and represent a clear unmet medical need. With a well-characterized safety profile and broad clinical systemic and central nervous system activity in patients, we believe firmonertinib is strongly positioned to bring meaningful innovation to NSCLC patients with PACC mutations and the potential to become a cornerstone therapy across the EGFR mutant spectrum."

Arvinas Initiates ARV-393 and Glofitamab Combination Trial for DLBCL Expected in 2026
- Clinical Trial Launch: Arvinas plans to initiate a combination clinical trial of ARV-393 and glofitamab in 2026, aiming to provide a chemotherapy-free treatment option for patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, addressing a significant unmet medical need.
- Significant Efficacy: In a high-grade B-cell lymphoma model, the combination of ARV-393 and glofitamab achieved an 81% tumor growth inhibition rate, demonstrating substantial synergistic anti-tumor effects that could offer a more effective treatment option for patients.
- Mechanistic Research Support: RNA sequencing analysis revealed that ARV-393 upregulates CD20 expression and promotes interferon signaling pathways, indicating a strong mechanistic rationale for its combination with glofitamab, providing theoretical support for future clinical applications.
- Market Potential: As demand for chemotherapy-free treatment options increases, this research by Arvinas not only aims to improve patient quality of life but also positions the company to capture market share in the competitive biopharmaceutical landscape.

Arvinas Initiates ARV-393 and Glofitamab Combination Trial for DLBCL, Expected in 2026
- Trial Initiation: Arvinas plans to initiate a combination clinical trial of ARV-393 and glofitamab in 2026, aiming to provide a chemotherapy-free treatment option for patients with diffuse large B-cell lymphoma, addressing a significant unmet medical need.
- Preclinical Data: In a high-grade B-cell lymphoma model, the combination of ARV-393 and glofitamab achieved an 81% tumor growth inhibition rate, demonstrating significant synergistic anti-tumor effects and indicating the clinical potential of this combination.
- Dose Optimization: At a higher dose of 6 mg/kg for ARV-393, the combination therapy showed increased tumor regression rates, with complete regression observed in 10 out of 10 mice, highlighting the efficacy and safety of this treatment approach.
- Mechanistic Insights: RNA sequencing revealed that ARV-393 upregulates CD20 expression and enhances interferon signaling pathways, which may provide a mechanistic basis for its synergistic effects with glofitamab, further supporting its clinical rationale.
