Candel Therapeutics (Nasdaq: CADL) has announced that data from their phase 3 clinical trial of CAN-2409 in patients with intermediate-to-high risk localized prostate cancer will be presented at the 2025 ASCO Annual Meeting. The presentation will feature results from a randomized, placebo-controlled study examining CAN-2409+prodrug combined with standard-of-care external beam radiation therapy (EBRT) for newly diagnosed localized prostate cancer.
The oral presentation will be delivered by Dr. Theodore DeWeese, Dean of Medical Faculty and CEO of Johns Hopkins Medicine, on June 3, 2025, during the Genitourinary Cancer session at McCormick Place Convention Center, Chicago. Full abstracts will be released on May 22, 2025.
Candel Therapeutics (CADL) has published Phase 1b clinical trial results in Neuro-Oncology, evaluating CAN-2409 plus valacyclovir and nivolumab combination with standard care in newly diagnosed high-grade glioma patients.
The trial enrolled 41 patients, with 35 completing the full treatment. Key findings include:
- Median overall survival of 15.1 months for the general population
- A subset of patients with methylated MGMT promoter and gross total tumor resection (n=6) achieved 30.6 months median survival
- Treatment showed immune activation at weeks 3 and 5, including increased naive and effector T cells
- No dose-limiting toxicities were observed for CAN-2409
While Candel is not pursuing CAN-2409 for high-grade glioma due to portfolio prioritization, the company is developing it for localized prostate cancer, pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma, and non-small cell lung cancer.
Candel Therapeutics reported final survival data from its Phase 2a clinical trial of CAN-2409 in advanced Non-Small Cell Lung Cancer (NSCLC) patients who failed to respond to immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) treatment. The study showed remarkable results with median overall survival (mOS) of 24.5 months in the evaluable patient population, significantly exceeding the standard care outcomes.
Key findings include:
- 21.5 months mOS in patients with progressive disease despite ICI therapy, compared to 9.8-11.8 months with standard docetaxel chemotherapy
- 37% of patients survived beyond 2 years after CAN-2409 administration
- 69% of patients showed regression in uninjected tumors (abscopal effect)
- Non-squamous NSCLC patients showed superior outcomes with 25.4 months mOS
The treatment maintained a favorable safety profile throughout the extended follow-up period. The FDA has granted Fast Track Designation for CAN-2409 in combination with ICI treatment for stage III/IV NSCLC patients resistant to first-line PD-(L)1 inhibitor therapy.
Candel Therapeutics (Nasdaq: CADL) has formed a strategic commercial partnership with IDEA Pharma to advance commercialization efforts for CAN-2409. The partnership follows positive phase 3 data for CAN-2409 in intermediate-to-high risk, localized prostate cancer, which demonstrated:
- 30% decrease in disease recurrence
- Statistically significant improvement in disease-free survival
- Higher pathological complete response rate (80.4% vs 63.6% in placebo)
IDEA Pharma will provide strategic commercial input through 2026, supporting Candel's BLA submission for CAN-2409 in prostate cancer. The partnership grants Candel access to IDEA's dedicated team of oncology commercialization experts to optimize go-to-market strategy.
