Telomir Pharmaceuticals Announces Efficacy Study Results for Telomir-1 in Triple-Negative Breast Cancer Models
Telomir Pharmaceuticals announced results from a completed efficacy study evaluating Telomir-1 in zebrafish tumor xenograft animal models of triple-negative breast cancer. The study was conducted in collaboration with BioReperia using its ZTX ONCOLEADS platform. In one of these animal models, Telomir-1 demonstrated statistically significant reductions in primary tumor growth and in the spread of cancer cells beyond the primary tumor in an aggressive TNBC model with limited responsiveness to the chemotherapy agent paclitaxel. In a separate aggressive TNBC model where paclitaxel demonstrated antitumor activity, Telomir-1 produced a comparable reduction in primary tumor growth as a monotherapy, and the combination treatment with Telomir-1 and paclitaxel resulted in greater tumor growth inhibition than either agent alone. Representative zebrafish tumor xenograft images from the BT549 xenografts and HCC1806 triple-negative breast cancer models illustrating primary BT549 xenografts tumor size and cancer cell spread of HCC1806 cells. Images compare untreated control tumors with tumors treated with Telomir-1, demonstrating reduced primary tumor burden and reduced dissemination of cancer cells beyond the primary tumor site. Images are representative of quantified and statistically analyzed results reported in this study. Telomir-1 demonstrated statistically significant tumor growth inhibition in aggressive TNBC models representing an estimated 40-60% of TNBC cases. Telomir-1 demonstrated statistically significant reduction in cancer cell spread in an aggressive TNBC model with limited chemotherapy responsiveness. In a broadly treatment-resistant TNBC subtype representing an estimated 15-25% of cases, neither Telomir-1 nor chemotherapy produced measurable effects, underscoring the biological specificity of response and providing important guidance for patient selection and clinical trial design. Combination treatment with paclitaxel enhanced tumor growth inhibition in models responsive to Telomir-1. Importantly, the observed biology-driven activity and lack of effect in broadly treatment-resistant models provide valuable guidance for patient selection and trial design, which may improve the likelihood of observing clear clinical benefit in future studies.
