Welcome to our dedicated page for Intensity Therapeutics news (Ticker: INTS), a resource for investors and traders seeking the latest updates and insights on Intensity Therapeutics stock.
Intensity Therapeutics, Inc. (Nasdaq: INTS) is a Connecticut-based, clinical-stage biotechnology company pioneering new immune-based therapies to treat solid tumor cancers. Utilizing its proprietary DfuseRx℠ technology platform, Intensity Therapeutics develops unique drug formulations designed for direct intratumoral injection. These formulations disperse rapidly throughout a tumor, diffusing therapeutic agents into cancer cells to induce an adaptive systemic immune response. This innovative approach not only targets the injected tumors but also non-injected tumors, offering significant potential for cancer treatment.
The company's flagship candidate, INT230-6, is an investigational product composed of two potent anti-cancer agents, cisplatin and vinblastine, combined with a penetration enhancer molecule (SHAO). This combination allows the drug to saturate tumors, promoting local disease control and systemic anti-tumor effects without the immunosuppression often seen with systemic chemotherapy.
Intensity's product pipeline is robust, with a strong focus on the development and clinical testing of INT230-6. The company has completed enrollment for its Phase 1/2 clinical trial (IT-01), showcasing extended survival in refractory soft tissue sarcoma patients. The ongoing and planned trials include:
- Phase 3 study (INVINCIBLE-3) in soft tissue sarcoma, expected to start mid-2024, which will compare INT230-6 as a monotherapy against standard of care drugs.
- Phase 2/3 program (INVINCIBLE-4) in presurgical breast cancer, anticipated to initiate in mid-2024, evaluating INT230-6 combined with standard of care.
Additionally, INT230-6 is being explored in combination therapies through collaborations with major pharmaceutical companies, including Merck and Bristol-Myers Squibb, to evaluate its effectiveness with KEYTRUDA® (pembrolizumab) and ipilimumab, respectively.
Intensity Therapeutics has received multiple platform validations and support, demonstrated by its FDA orphan-drug designation for soft tissue sarcoma treatment and its successful upsized IPO in July 2023. The company continues to advance its mission, with a strong financial position and sufficient cash reserves expected to fund operations into 2025.
