NEWS -- Oncolytics Biotech® Announces Productive FDA Type C Meeting on its Metastatic Breast Cancer Program
Clear path forward on key elements of the planned potential registration-enabling trial in HR+/HER2- metastatic breast cancer
On track to report overall survival results from the randomized HR+/HER2- metastatic breast cancer BRACELET-1 trial in H2 2024
SAN DIEGO and CALGARY, AB, June 27, 2024 /CNW/ -- Oncolytics Biotech® Inc. (NASDAQ: ONCY) (TSX: ONC), a leading clinical-stage company specializing in immunotherapeutics for oncology, today announced that the Company received productive feedback from its Type C meeting with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA), supporting the planned potential registration-enabling trial for pelareorep in HR+/HER2- metastatic breast cancer (mBC). The FDA supports progression-free survival as the primary endpoint of the study, with overall survival as a key secondary endpoint. The Company's proposed study will enroll patients who have failed hormonal therapy and have received no more than one line of antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) therapy.
"Aligning with the FDA on key design elements and objectives of our planned registrational trial for pelareorep marks a critical step towards bringing this innovative treatment to patients," said Thomas Heineman, M.D., Ph.D., Chief Medical Officer at Oncolytics. "Our de-risked program builds on compelling data and key learnings from two randomized studies, BRACELET-1 and IND-213, which demonstrated clinically meaningful benefit in patients receiving pelareorep and paclitaxel compared to paclitaxel alone. Additionally, translational data from the AWARE-1 study highlights pelareorep's immune-mediated mechanism of action in breast cancer patients. We are now well-positioned to deliver on our mission of making pelareorep available to breast cancer patients in need of better treatment options."
Wayne Pisano, Interim CEO and Chair of the Board of Oncolytics, commented, "We are appreciative of the thoughtful dialog with the FDA and are pleased to have reached an important regulatory milestone that provides a clear path forward for pelareorep's advancement towards registration in HR+/HER2- mBC. Looking ahead, initiating a registration-enabling trial has become a major corporate objective, and in parallel, we remain on track to report survival data from the BRACELET-1 study in HR+/HER2- mBC in the second half of the year. We believe these data will further bolster our compelling data package and underscores the therapeutic potential of pelareorep. We remain committed to improving the standard of care and addressing the high unmet medical needs of these patients."

NEWS -- Oncolytics Biotech® ASCO Abstracts Highlight Pelareorep's Potential in Pancreatic Cancer and Immunotherapeutic Mechanism of Action
Trial-in-progress abstract highlights new cohort that could expand the company's pancreatic cancer program
Pelareorep's ability to expand TILs highlights its immunotherapeutic mechanism of action and potential as a backbone immunotherapy for multiple indications
SAN DIEGO and CALGARY, AB, May 24, 2024 /CNW/ -- Oncolytics Biotech® Inc. (NASDAQ: ONCY) (TSX: ONC), a leading clinical-stage company specializing in immunotherapy for oncology, presented two abstracts at the 2024 American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) Annual Meeting. One is a trial-in-progress abstract discussing cohort 5 of the GOBLET study, which will evaluate the combination of pelareorep and modified FOLFIRINOX (mFOLFIRINOX) with and without atezolizumab in newly diagnosed metastatic pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) patients. The second describes pelareorep's ability to induce the expansion of tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) across multiple cancers and the correlation between TIL expansion and tumor response. The ASCO annual meeting will take place from May 31 – June 4, 2024, in Chicago, Illinois.
"The two abstracts that we are sharing at ASCO this year are in synch with our mission of advancing pelareorep towards registrational trials. The first abstract outlines the design of a new GOBLET PDAC cohort that could significantly expand the potential of the company's pancreatic cancer program," said Dr. Matt Coffey, President and Chief Executive Officer of Oncolytics. "The chemotherapy regimens of mFOLFIRINOX and gemcitabine/nab-paclitaxel are the two most common standards of care in metastatic pancreatic cancer. We previously reported that the combination of pelareorep, gemcitabine, nab-paclitaxel, and atezolizumab yielded tumor response rates nearly triple historical results. Should the combination of pelareorep and mFOLFIRINOX produce a similarly positive outcome, an even broader range of metastatic PDAC patients may benefit from pelareorep-based therapy. This cohort is being funded by a US$5 million grant in the form of the Therapeutic Accelerator Award from the Pancreatic Cancer Action Network (PanCAN). We anticipate enrollment in this cohort will begin this quarter."
Thomas Heineman, MD, PhD, Chief Medical Officer of Oncolytics stated, "Pelareorep stimulates a proinflammatory response that primes tumors for immunologic killing and also activates both innate and adaptive immune responses. Our second ASCO abstract provides additional support for pelareorep's immunotherapeutic mechanism of action by describing its ability to stimulate the expansion of pre-existing and new TIL clones in the blood, which correlate with treatment response. These results build upon previously reported data from the AWARE-1 study in breast cancer to expand our understanding of pelareorep's immune-based mechanism of action, and it supports further investigation of TIL expansion as a potential biomarker of clinical activity in patients treated with pelareorep."
Details on the abstracts and poster presentation are shown below.
Title: Phase 1/2 randomized, open-label, multicenter, Simon two-stage study of pelareorep combined with modified FOLFIRINOX +/- atezolizumab in patients with metastatic pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma.
Presentation Type: Poster
Abstract Number: TPS4203
Session Title: Gastrointestinal Cancer – Gastroesophageal, Pancreatic, and Hepatobiliary

NEWS -- Oncolytics Biotech® Announces Preliminary Collaboration with GCAR for Inclusion of Pelareorep in Anticipated Pancreatic Cancer Trial
SAN DIEGO and CALGARY, AB, May 15, 2024 /CNW/ -- Oncolytics Biotech® Inc. (NASDAQ: ONCY) (TSX: ONC), a leading clinical-stage company specializing in immunotherapy for oncology, today announced that it has entered into a preliminary collaboration with the Global Coalition for Adaptive Research (GCAR). The purpose of the preliminary collaboration is to commence planning activities for the evaluation of pelareorep in the treatment of first-line metastatic pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) as part of GCAR's anticipated master protocol for metastatic pancreatic cancer. Activities are currently underway to finalize the seamless Phase 2/3 master protocol design that will evaluate multiple investigational therapies for the treatment of pancreatic cancer. An intent of the study is to produce registration-enabling data.
"We are thrilled to collaborate with GCAR and are honored that pelareorep has been selected as the first therapeutic for evaluation in GCAR's planned adaptive trial in pancreatic cancer patients. We believe this opportunity presents a strategic and efficient pathway forward for the development of pelareorep to address an urgent need for pancreatic cancer patients," said Dr. Matt Coffey, President and Chief Executive Officer of Oncolytics. "GCAR's anticipated trial design seeks to cut registrational study time and reduce trial costs, speeding up the journey to potentially deliver effective cancer treatment sooner. Through our interactions with GCAR, we have seen the strength of their capabilities and strong engagement with disease experts in pancreatic cancer. These attributes give us great enthusiasm to begin working together right away."
Meredith Buxton, PhD, MPH, Chief Executive Officer and President of GCAR, commented, "Our unwavering mission at GCAR is to accelerate the development of treatments for patients with deadly diseases such as pancreatic cancer. We believe that adaptive platform trials have the potential to achieve that mission and to be game-changing for patients. We are enthusiastic about collaborating with Oncolytics on our planned pancreatic cancer initiative, which was announced earlier this year, and we look forward to working with Oncolytics to advance our program."
Thomas Heineman, MD, PhD, Chief Medical Officer of Oncolytics shared, "The combination of pelareorep's impressive results to date and GCAR's innovative trial design creates a powerful path forward. This strategy, which includes leveraging GCAR's extensive investigator network, enhances our ability to quickly and effectively advance the development of this pelareorep-based combination therapy for PDAC. Updated data from cohort 1 of the GOBLET study, presented at the European Society for Medical Oncology (ESMO) Congress 2023, showed that patients treated with pelareorep combined with a checkpoint inhibitor, gemcitabine, and nab-paclitaxel experienced a 62% objective response rate, nearly triple what has been seen in historical control trials.1-4 We hope to build on these results in GCAR's forthcoming study that will employ GCAR's broad and established network of clinical leaders in pancreatic cancer. I am very optimistic about our program and our collaboration with GCAR and look forward to advancing the evaluation of pelareorep as soon as possible."

We appreciate the opportunity to collaborate with PanCAN, Roche, and AIO on this cohort, which is expected to initiate enrollment in the second quarter," said Dr. Matt Coffey, President and Chief Executive Officer of Oncolytics. "We believe that working with PanCAN will help to further enrich Oncolytics' clinical relationships with the pancreatic cancer community. We are also grateful for PanCAN's Therapeutic Accelerator Award, which is enabling the evaluation of this combination therapy."
"The Therapeutic Accelerator Award program has been an important part of PanCAN's approach to advancing innovative treatments for pancreatic cancer. We incorporated input from leading scientists and clinicians in the field of pancreatic cancer to select Oncolytics as a recipient of this award," said Anna Berkenblit, MD, MMSc, Chief Scientific and Medical Officer at PanCAN. "Increasing patient access to clinical trials is vital to developing improved treatment options, so we are pleased that Oncolytics has received regulatory clearance for the pelareorep/mFOLFIRINOX combination and is poised to enroll the first patient in this cohort. We hope that the results from this study lead to improved outcomes for patients with pancreatic cancer."
Dirk Arnold, M.D., Ph.D., Director of Asklepios Tumorzentrum Hamburg and primary investigator of the GOBLET trial, commented, "Oncolytics has taken a very strategic approach to the development of pelareorep in pancreatic cancer by focusing its clinical studies on combinations with the most widely used treatment regimens. My experience to date with the GOBLET study, including the positive metastatic PDAC and encouraging anal cancer data reported last year, makes me enthusiastic to initiate enrollment in the mFOLFIRINOX cohort."
"We previously reported very encouraging results in pancreatic cancer patients for the combination of pelareorep, gemcitabine/nab-paclitaxel, and atezolizumab, and we plan to begin a registration-enabling study of this regimen later this year. The new pelareorep/mFOLFIRINOX cohort offers the opportunity to expand pelareorep's role in pancreatic cancer. If the mFOLFIRINOX combination shows a compelling efficacy signal, this therapeutic approach could also be advanced to a registration-enabling study, providing two opportunities for pelareorep-based treatment to benefit pancreatic cancer patients," said Thomas Heineman, M.D., Ph.D., Chief Medical Officer at Oncolytics. "In addition, translational research studies planned for this cohort will help to further elucidate pelareorep's mechanism of action, including its ability to shape the tumor microenvironment (TME). Notably, we will evaluate the correlation between tumor responses and the expansion of tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) in the blood, an effect that was observed in earlier pancreatic cancer studies. We look forward to initiating enrollment into the mFOLFIRINOX/pelareorep study cohort in the second quarter of this year."

NEWS -- Oncolytics Biotech® Advances Toward Registration-Enabling Trial for Pelareorep in Breast Cancer with Submission of Type C Meeting Request to FDA
SAN DIEGO and CALGARY, AB, April 11, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Oncolytics Biotech® Inc. (NASDAQ: ONCY) (TSX: ONC), a leading clinical-stage company specializing in immunotherapeutics for oncology, is pleased to announce the submission of a Type C meeting request to the FDA. This meeting aims to discuss the Company's planned registration-enabling trial for pelareorep in HR+/HER2- metastatic breast cancer (mBC).
"A key focus for Oncolytics in 2024 is defining the regulatory path for pelareorep in breast cancer treatment. We are optimistic that pelareorep, in combination with paclitaxel, could significantly enhance clinical outcomes for patients with HR+/HER2- metastatic breast cancer. Our position is strengthened by encouraging data from two randomized studies (BRACELET-1 and IND-213) and the AWARE-1 study, paving the way for the next phase of pelareorep's development and its registration. Ongoing discussions with our clinical collaborators and partners have helped us to prepare a robust, compelling briefing document," said Dr. Matt Coffey, President and Chief Executive Officer of Oncolytics. "We eagerly anticipate our discussion with the FDA to align on the design and objectives of the registrational trial for pelareorep in metastatic breast cancer, a critical step towards bringing this innovative treatment to patients. Having a well-defined plan for the registrational track study will also help advance our strategic partnering discussions. We hope to meet with the agency in Q2 2024 and look forward to a productive dialogue. With anticipated overall survival data from the BRACELET-1 study and productive discussions with the FDA, 2024 is poised to be a transformative year for Oncolytics and our stakeholders."
Thomas Heineman, M.D., Ph.D., Chief Medical Officer at Oncolytics, added, "The data from the randomized BRACELET-1 trial showcased compelling results for the pelareorep/paclitaxel combination therapy in HR+/HER2- metastatic breast cancer patients, with a nearly tripled confirmed response rate, a 50% improvement in median progression-free survival, and a hazard ratio of 0.29 compared to the paclitaxel alone control. Importantly, these data support the statistically significant near doubling of median overall survival in another randomized phase 2 study, IND-213, which also evaluated pelareorep and paclitaxel in HR+/HER2- metastatic breast cancer patients."
Dr. Heineman continued, "Our proposed study plans to evaluate pelareorep in patients with HR+/HER2- mBC who are eligible for chemotherapy after progressing on prior hormonal therapy, including a CDK 4/6 inhibitor. We also intend to evaluate potential biomarkers, including the expansion of tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes, using T cell receptor sequencing. We look forward to the opportunity to discuss our plans with the agency and align on the best approach to advance the development of pelareorep as a potential treatment option to improve outcomes for breast cancer patients."

NEWS -- Oncolytics Biotech® Files Amendment to Initiate New Pancreatic Cancer GOBLET Cohort Supported by PanCAN
US$5M grant supports study of pelareorep in combination with modified FOLFIRINOX +/- atezolizumab
Testing with the most common therapies could facilitate broad use of pelareorep in pancreatic cancer patients
SAN DIEGO and CALGARY, AB, March 5, 2024 /CNW/ -- Oncolytics Biotech® Inc. (NASDAQ: ONCY) (TSX: ONC), a clinical-stage immunotherapeutics company focused on oncology, today announced it has submitted an amendment to GOBLET to initiate a new Phase 1/2 cohort evaluating pelareorep in combination with modified FOLFIRINOX (mFOLFIRINOX) with and without atezolizumab (Tecentriq®) in patients with newly diagnosed metastatic pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). This amendment will be reviewed by the Paul Ehrlich Institute (PEI; Germany's regulatory body) for approval before patient enrollment can begin. The cohort, the fifth of the GOBLET gastrointestinal cancer study, is being supported by the US$5 million Therapeutic Accelerator Award from the Pancreatic Cancer Action Network (PanCAN), an innovative program established to accelerate the development of new treatments for pancreatic cancer. Evaluation of this novel treatment approach will complement Oncolytics' ongoing development of pelareorep, atezolizumab, gemcitabine, and nab-paclitaxel in PDAC, which is expected to advance to a registrational study later this year.
"We are enthusiastic to have the support of PanCAN to expand the evaluation of pelareorep in pancreatic cancer and explore mFOLFIRINOX as another combination that could improve outcomes for patients. Notably, this patient population is newly diagnosed patients who are receiving first-line treatment. Chemotherapies, including either mFOLFIRINOX or gemcitabine and nab-paclitaxel, are the backbone treatment regimens of pancreatic cancer therapy1. Evaluating pelareorep in combination with these widely used regimens is an important step in our broad clinical development program," said Dr. Matt Coffey, President and Chief Executive Officer of Oncolytics. "Last fall, we reported a 62% objective response rate for the GOBLET PDAC cohort studying pelareorep in combination with the checkpoint inhibitor atezolizumab in addition to gemcitabine and nab-paclitaxel (link to the PR, link to the poster). This response is about three times that of historical controls and forms the basis of the registrational program, expected to begin this year. Therefore, we are enthusiastic about this new mFOLFIRINOX pancreatic cancer cohort and look forward to enrolling the first patient as soon as possible."
Dirk Arnold, M.D., Ph.D., Director of Asklepios Tumorzentrum Hamburg, and primary investigator of the GOBLET trial, commented, "One of the reasons for pancreatic cancer's poor survival rate is that it effectively evades the immune system and can induce an immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment (TME)2. Pelareorep is an attractive combination partner because of its ability to address both issues by activating the innate and adaptive immune systems while driving the remodeling of the tumor microenvironment. Positive results from the Phase 2 study evaluating pelareorep combined with atezolizumab and chemotherapy reported last fall support the potential use of these agents together. I am hopeful that the combination of pelareorep and mFOLFIRINOX (with or without atezolizumab) will yield positive response data and advance the development of new treatment options for patients with pancreatic cancer."
"This study is designed to evaluate whether pelareorep can enhance outcomes in patients receiving mFOLFIRINOX, one of the most commonly used metastatic pancreatic cancer treatments. Combining pelareorep with mFOLFIRINOX represents an expansion of our existing pancreatic cancer program and maximizes the potential of pelareorep-based combination therapies to benefit pancreatic cancer patients," commented Thomas Heineman, M.D., Ph.D., Chief Medical Officer at Oncolytics. "The mFOLFIRINOX cohort utilizes a screened selection design within a Simon two-stage approach that will also allow evaluation of the contribution of atezolizumab to the pelareorep/mFOLFIRINOX combination. In addition, this study is designed to provide valuable translational assessments, such as the expansion of tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs) in the blood, which has been associated with tumor responses. We look forward to building on PanCAN's strong relationships with the pancreatic cancer community and furthering our collaboration with AIO-Studien-gGmbH (AIO) on the GOBLET study."

About GOBLET cohort 5
The mFOLFIRINOX cohort of the Phase 1/2 GOBLET study is designed to evaluate newly diagnosed PDAC patients treated with pelareorep + mFOLFIRINOX with or without atezolizumab. There will be a three-patient safety run-in to evaluate the tolerability of each treatment arm - pelareorep + mFOLFIRINOX + atezolizumab and pelareorep + mFOLFIRINOX. A total of fifteen patients may be randomized to each arm in Stage one of the Simon-two stage design. The co-primary endpoints of the cohort are objective response rate and safety. The success criteria for Stage 1 is defined as six or more responses in one or both of the treatment groups. Successful completion of Stage one will support expansion into Stage two, which can include one or both treatment regimens, and would enroll 17 additional evaluable patients. A total of 13 or more responses from Stage 1 and 2 combined are required to achieve the success criteria. Translational data will also be generated.
About GOBLET

NEWS -- Oncolytics Biotech® Initiates Enrollment Expansion of GOBLET Anal Cancer Cohort
Successful Stage 1 data showed a near tripling of Objective Response Rate compared to checkpoint inhibitor monotherapy, including a Complete Response, and supports expansion
SAN DIEGO and CALGARY, Alberta, Feb. 14, 2024 /CNW/ -- Oncolytics Biotech® Inc. (NASDAQ: ONCY) (TSX: ONC), a clinical-stage immunotherapeutics company focused on oncology, today announced the expansion of enrollment for the anal cancer cohort of the GOBLET study evaluating pelareorep in combination with atezolizumab (Tecentriq®) in patients with second-line or later unresectable squamous cell carcinoma of the anal canal (SCCA). The study was expanded based on positive data from Stage 1 of the study, presented at the 2nd International Multidisciplinary Anal Cancer Conference (IMACC) in November 2023 (link to the PR, link to the poster).
"These exciting clinical data, which exceed the Simon two-stage success criteria, provide strong support to expand the evaluation of pelareorep in patients with advanced anal cancer. The results reported at IMACC 2023 showed that the combination of pelareorep and atezolizumab provided a 37.5% objective response rate, including one patient with a long-lasting complete response, and good overall tolerability. These data represent a meaningful contrast to recent clinical trial results which show that patients with second-line or later anal carcinoma treated with checkpoint inhibitor therapy experienced response rates of 10-14%1-3," said Dr. Matt Coffey, President and Chief Executive Officer of Oncolytics."
"We begin the Stage 2 expansion with substantial optimism for patients and the potential of pelareorep, especially considering the initial efficacy signal observed for pelareorep-based therapy in pancreatic cancer. There is currently no established standard therapy for patients with anal carcinoma who have failed first-line treatment. Continued positive results could potentially expand the opportunity for pelareorep beyond the lead indications of breast cancer and pancreatic cancer and open the door to a rapid regulatory pathway in this rare and significantly under-served patient population," continued Dr. Coffey.
Dirk Arnold, M.D., Ph.D., Director of Asklepios Tumorzentrum Hamburg, and primary investigator of the GOBLET trial, commented, "One of the most difficult challenges in my practice is the limited number of treatment options that are available for patients with advanced anal cancer who have progressed on first-line therapy. I am enthusiastic about the expansion of this cohort because it will enable the continued evaluation of the pelareorep/atezolizumab combination and could provide important confirmatory data that may lead to better treatment options for patients with this late-stage disease."
"We look forward to building on the oncology community's enthusiastic reception of the IMACC 2023 data by expanding enrollment in the anal carcinoma cohort and incorporating additional sites into the study," commented Thomas Heineman, M.D., Ph.D., Chief Medical Officer at Oncolytics. "Careful consideration of recently published clinical trial results indicates that a modest expansion of fewer than 20 patients will be sufficient to solidify the efficacy signal we have observed to date and lay the groundwork for a potential future registrational study in this population. We look forward to continuing our excellent collaboration with the clinical sites and investigators at AIO and hope to report additional results in 2025."

NEWS -- Oncolytics Biotech® Recaps 2023 Accomplishments, Provides Outlook for 2024
SAN DIEGO, CA and CALGARY, AB, Jan. 4, 2024 /CNW/ -- Oncolytics Biotech® Inc. (NASDAQ: ONCY) (TSX: ONC), a clinical-stage immunotherapeutics company focused on oncology, reported on significant 2023 accomplishments and announced corporate priorities and anticipated clinical development milestones for 2024.
Overview: "2023 was an outstanding year for Oncolytics and the development of pelareorep as a potential cancer therapy. To date, we have studied pelareorep in more than 1,100 patients, and it has been shown to be well-tolerated with mild side effects. Promising clinical and translational results from our Phase 2 programs and mechanism of action learnings from a wide range of tumor types, as detailed below, provided consistent data and efficacy signals with durable responses that support the use of pelareorep as an immunotherapeutic agent, either as a monotherapy or in combination with other agents. These data readouts from multiple clinical studies at numerous sites and from diverse cancer indications that are clinically important make a compelling argument for pelareorep as a true backbone immunotherapy with the potential to help countless patients across a range of tumors," said Dr. Matt Coffey, President and Chief Executive Officer of Oncolytics. "We believe our cash balance and strong data, supported by our active business development program, position us well for 2024."
Positive Clinical and Translational Data: "Positive, early results from the Phase 1/2 GOBLET study in three gastrointestinal cancers - pancreatic, anal, and colorectal - showed that the combination of pelareorep and atezolizumab produced clinically meaningful improvements in response rates and survival timelines that are notably improved compared to historical results with no toxicity concerns. Translational data from studies in solid tumors, breast, pancreatic, and colorectal cancers showed that treatment with pelareorep remodels the tumor microenvironment and stimulates tumor-directed immune responses, affirming its mechanism of action as an immunotherapeutic agent. Together, these data provide a strong foundation to support advancing pelareorep into registrational-track studies, starting in 2024," continued Dr Coffey.
2024 Outlook: Dr. Coffey concluded by saying, "Looking ahead to 2024, we expect to initiate the first Phase 3 study for pelareorep in pancreatic cancer. The transition to a late-stage biopharmaceutical company will mark an important inflection point for investors, clinical collaborators and potential partners by providing a line of sight towards the path to regulatory approval and achieving our mission of developing pelareorep as an immunotherapeutic agent for cancer. We are excited to launch a new Phase 1/2 pancreatic cancer study investigating, for the first time, pelareorep in combination with modified FOLFIRINOX (mFOLFIRINOX). Finally, our discussions with regulators on a pivotal Phase 3 trial have been productive to date, and we expect to provide guidance on the registration path for metastatic breast cancer in the first half of 2024. We look forward to updating our stakeholders on our progress as the year unfolds."
Immunotherapeutic Mechanism of Action: Thomas Heineman, M.D., Ph.D., Chief Medical Officer at Oncolytics, said, "Translational data from multiple studies in 2023 have helped define pelareorep's role in shaping the tumor microenvironment and have provided a better understanding of its ability to induce the expansion of T cell populations. Notably, the positive association between tumor response and TIL clone expansion could become a useful marker of clinical outcomes in future studies and during patient care. Moreover, these findings further distinguish pelareorep's mechanism of action from that of other immunotherapeutic agents and provide support for its immunologic effects, which are largely driven by the introduction of its double-stranded RNA genome into cancer cells."
Financial Strength and Partnering Outlook: Kirk Look, Oncolytics' Chief Financial Officer, commented, "Our $40 million cash balance as of September 30, 2023, and the grant funding from The Pancreatic Cancer Action Network (PanCAN) provides us with over 12 months of runway to support our operations, including the initiation of our first Phase 3 study and the BRACELET-1 survival data. We continue to have active conversations with potential partners and work diligently with clinical collaborators, including Roche and Pfizer. We believe the positive, extended dataset, including continued and durable responses, survival results, and translational observations, will provide potential partners with a well-defined and unique target product profile that will add to our discussions."
Anticipated Milestones are expected to include:
NEWS -- Oncolytics Biotech® and SOLTI Present Positive Translational Data at SABCS
SAN DIEGO and CALGARY, AB, Dec. 7, 2023 /CNW/ -- Oncolytics Biotech® Inc. (NASDAQ: ONCY) (TSX: ONC), a clinical-stage immunotherapeutics company focused on oncology, today announced the presentation of additional translational data from the AWARE-1 breast cancer window-of-opportunity study conducted in combination with SOLTI-Innovative Cancer Research at The San Antonio Breast Cancer Symposium (SABCS).
"Translational data presented from the AWARE-1 study at SABCS showed that pelareorep induced the expansion of tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes, or TILs, in matched tumor biopsy and peripheral blood samples of newly diagnosed breast cancer patients. In addition, sequencing of the T cell receptors (TCRs) showed a more prominent expansion of existing TIL clones in the blood. We consider these results to be positive and important because they build on additional translational results reported this fall at two other medical meetings, The Society for Immunotherapy of Cancer (SITC) and The European Society for Medical Oncology (ESMO), from the AWARE-1 and GOBLET studies respectively, and provide further support for pelareorep's unique immunologic mechanism of action," said Dr. Matt Coffey, President and Chief Executive Officer of Oncolytics. "Taken together, these translational data affirm pelareorep's ability to enhance T cell infiltration into tumors and expand TILs in the peripheral blood, which have been correlated with tumor response. We intend to incorporate these learnings into the designs of our registrational studies in metastatic breast cancer and pancreatic cancer."
Thomas Heineman, M.D., Ph.D., Chief Medical Officer at Oncolytics, commented, "A review of the AWARE-1 study translational data presented at this year's SABCS and previous scientific conferences demonstrates that pelareorep treatment, especially in combination with atezolizumab, results in:
NEWS -- Oncolytics Provides Update on Pancreatic Cancer Program for Pelareorep
Updated plan follows PanCAN's strategic re-evaluation of the Precision PromiseSM Program
PanCAN US$5 million grant provides support for new GOBLET mFOLFIRINOX arm to proceed as planned
New Phase 3 strategy provides significant value-creation opportunities
SAN DIEGO, CA and CALGARY, AB, Nov. 9, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Oncolytics Biotech® Inc. (NASDAQ: ONCY) (Oncolytics) (TSX: ONC), a clinical-stage immunotherapeutics company focused on oncology, provided an update on the planned program for pelareorep in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC).
Oncolytics' collaborator, The Pancreatic Cancer Action Network (PanCAN), a pancreatic cancer patient advocacy organization, advised the company that it is implementing a strategic re-evaluation of the Precision PromiseSM program and will not be adding any new investigational therapies to the platform until the re-evaluation is complete. Oncolytics and PanCAN had previously planned to initiate a Phase 3 trial using the Precision PromiseSM platform in H1 2024. Oncolytics now plans to conduct an adaptive Phase 3 program of pelareorep, gemcitabine, nab-paclitaxel, and atezolizumab, similar to the Precision Promise study and manage it directly within our Clinical Group and a contract research organization (CRO) with the goal of enrolling the first patient in mid-2024.
Additionally, Oncolytics and PanCAN confirmed that PanCAN will continue with its plans to grant US$5 million to Oncolytics as part of the Therapeutic Accelerator Award for the new Phase 2 GOBLET study arm evaluating the combination of pelareorep and modified FOLFIRINOX (mFOLFIRINOX) in pancreatic cancer patients.
Dr. Matt Coffey, President and Chief Executive Officer of Oncolytics, said, "Oncolytics remains steadfast in its commitment to initiate the Phase 3 program for pelareorep, starting in PDAC, in 2024. Having a compelling Phase 2 dataset in hand and strong connections with the pancreatic cancer community, Oncolytics is well positioned to effectively conduct the Phase 3 pancreatic cancer program. Trial preparations are actively underway, and we expect to initiate the enrollment of the first patient in mid-2024. The company plans to provide a further update on the design of the Phase 3 trial in H1 2024."
Dr. Coffey continued, "The opportunity to work with the strong scientific, regulatory and clinical leadership teams at PanCAN continues to be valuable for Oncolytics. We are grateful for our ongoing collaboration through the US$5 million Therapeutic Accelerator Award grant program in support of the new arm of the GOBLET study of pelareorep and mFOLFIRINOX, slated to begin in H1 2024."
"While we are undertaking a strategic re-evaluation of the program and are not adding any new therapies until the evaluation is complete, we remain committed to Oncolytics' efforts to accelerate therapies for pancreatic cancer patients through the US$5 million Therapeutic Accelerator Award Grant," said Julie Fleshman, President and CEO of PanCAN."
Dr. Coffey concluded by saying, "Looking ahead, we believe our updated plan to conduct the pelareorep Phase 3 pancreatic cancer program will enable us to be much closer to the conduct of the trial and the data. We believe this will be strategically valuable as we advance our partnering discussions and explore regulatory strategies to accelerate the development of pelareorep in order to bring this potentially important immunotherapeutic agent to people with cancer."

NEWS -- Oncolytics Presents Positive Updated Pancreatic Cancer Data from GOBLET Phase 1/2 Study at ESMO
7.2 months mPFS and 10.6 months interim median OS surpass historical outcomes by = 25%
T-cell expansion data correlate with tumor response, providing important proof-of-concept
SAN DIEGO and CALGARY, AB, Oct. 23, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Oncolytics Biotech® Inc. (NASDAQ: ONCY),( Oncolytics) (TSX: ONC), a clinical-stage immunotherapeutics company focused on oncology, today announced the poster presentation of positive, updated results from the Phase 1/2 GOBLET study evaluating pelareorep-based combination therapy in patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) at the European Society for Medical Oncology meeting (ESMO 2023), taking place in Madrid, Spain.
"We are very pleased to share such positive and consistent data on pelareorep from the PDAC arm of the GOBLET study, including an impressive overall response rate, 7.2 months of median progression-free survival, interim median overall survival of 10.6 months, and expansion of both pre-existing and new T-cell clones. These data build upon results from previous studies showing the clinical benefit of pelareorep combination therapy in PDAC and support the decision to move to a licensure-enabling study in pancreatic cancer," said Dr. Matt Coffey, President and Chief Executive Officer of Oncolytics. "Everything we do at Oncolytics is focused on advancing the development of our immunotherapy candidate, pelareorep, with a goal of providing improved care and longer survival for patients with pancreatic cancer and other tumor types. The data we are presenting at ESMO provide a solid foundation as we advance our pancreatic cancer program through the Precision PromiseSM Phase 3 trial in this indication."

NEWS -- Oncolytics Achieves Success Criteria for Efficacy in the Third-Line Colorectal Cancer Cohort of the GOBLET Study
Results met efficacy criteria for enrollment expansion and provide support for pelareorep's mechanism of action
SAN DIEGO and CALGARY, AB, Oct. 23, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Oncolytics Biotech® Inc. (NASDAQ: ONCY), (Oncolytics) (TSX: ONC), a clinical-stage immunotherapeutics company focused on oncology, today announced the poster presentation of interim results from the Phase 1/2 GOBLET study evaluating a combination treatment of pelareorep in patients with third-line (3L) metastatic colorectal cancer (CRC) regardless of microsatellite instability status at the European Society for Medical Oncology meeting (ESMO 2023), taking place in Madrid, Spain.
"The results presented at ESMO met the criteria to advance the study to the next stage, with 4 of 14 enrolled patients demonstrating stable disease at week 16. These data demonstrated a 40% overall disease control rate and provided further encouraging data for pelareorep," said Dr. Matt Coffey, President and Chief Executive Officer of Oncolytics. "In a patient population that had failed multiple rounds of treatment, we continue to see pelareorep's ability to synergize with atezolizumab by generating an immune response, including the expansion of T cell clones. The translational data from this cohort are consistent with the observed clinical response, providing further support for pelareorep's mechanism of action as a potential backbone immunotherapy for patients with gastrointestinal and other forms of cancer."
"We designed the GOBLET study to evaluate pelareorep's ability to improve clinical outcomes in different gastrointestinal cancers, including at different disease stages, and to better understand pelareorep's mechanism of action by generating strong translational data. The data from this arm of the study demonstrate that pelareorep is taken up by tumor cells and stimulates T cell expansion even in heavily pre-treated colorectal cancer patients," said Thomas Heineman, M.D., Ph.D., Chief Medical Officer at Oncolytics. "These patients demonstrated a 40% disease control rate, a progression-free survival of 2.8 months, a median overall survival of 8.0 months, and a 12-month survival rate of 33%, exceeding historical results1-3. These findings are encouraging given that exhaustion of tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes, resulting from late stage of disease and extensive prior chemotherapy, may have limited their ability to expand in response to treatment. Notably, this is the second GOBLET study cohort in a row that has met its success criteria, further supporting pelareorep's ability to synergize with atezolizumab. These data also support pelareorep's immunologic mechanism of action and will inform our plans for further development."
GOBLET Study 3L Metastatic CRC Patient Overview:
Patients in the CRC cohort, presented at ESMO 2023, are undergoing third-line treatment with a combination of pelareorep, atezolizumab, and trifluridine/tipiracil. The 15 evaluable patients enrolled in the first stage of the study have been evaluated based on a September 18, 2023 data cut-off date. The enrolled patient population included patients with an ECOG score of =1 and confirmed colorectal cancer, regardless of microsatellite instability status.

NEWS -- THE PANCREATIC CANCER ACTION NETWORK SELECTS ONCOLYTICS BIOTECH® INC. TO RECEIVE $5 MILLION THERAPEUTIC ACCELERATOR AWARD TO DEVELOP LEADING-EDGE TREATMENTS
Innovative Multimillion-Dollar Grant Was Created in 2022 to Drive Biopharma Industry to Speed Development of Pancreatic Cancer Therapies
BOSTON and SAN DIEGO and CALGARY, AB, Sept. 26, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- In an effort to continue accelerating new treatment options for people with pancreatic cancer, the Pancreatic Cancer Action Network (PanCAN) today announced Oncolytics Biotech, Inc. (NASDAQ: ONCY) (TSX: ONC) as the recipient of its second annual PanCAN Therapeutic Accelerator Award. Oncolytics received this award in recognition of its promising work on pelareorep, an investigational immunotherapy treatment that introduces double-stranded RNA into cancer cells, which stimulates anticancer inflammatory effects, including innate and adaptive immune responses and the activation and recruitment of T cells into the tumor. This $5 million grant will enable Oncolytics to continue the next stage of its research focused on a clinical trial with Oncolytics' proprietary reovirus pelareorep in combination with modified FOLFIRINOX chemotherapy with or without an immune checkpoint inhibitor. If results are encouraging, the treatment combination may be advanced to late-stage clinical development through the PanCAN Precision PromiseSM adaptive clinical trial platform.
The Pancreatic Cancer Action Network (PanCAN) is dedicated to fighting the world’s toughest cancer. In our urgent mission to save lives, we attack pancreatic cancer on all fronts: research, clinical initiatives, patient services and advocacy. Our effort is amplified by a nationwide network of grassroots support. We are determined to improve outcomes for today’s patients and those diagnosed in the future. (PRNewsfoto/Pancreatic Cancer Action Network)
The combination of pelareorep, gemcitabine, nab-paclitaxel, and atezolizumab was granted Fast Track designation by the FDA last year and has already been selected for inclusion in the Precision Promise clinical trial platform, which is anticipated to open in early 2024. Testing pelareorep in combination with FOLFIRINOX expands the approach so all patients with advanced pancreatic cancer could have the opportunity to benefit from this innovative immunotherapeutic approach.
The announcement of the Therapeutic Accelerator Award is being made in advance of PanCAN's annual Scientific Summit in Boston, which brings together PanCAN's Community for Progress, including research grant recipients, Scientific and Medical Advisors, industry partners and special guests to share ideas and build collaboration. Oncolytics was selected to receive the 2023 PanCAN Therapeutic Accelerator Award for $5 million through a rigorous, competitive process involving scientific, business and programmatic review from leading experts in the field.
Pancreatic cancer is notoriously aggressive and hard to treat. Current estimates suggest that the disease will be the second leading cause of cancer-related deaths in the United States before 2030. Most people with pancreatic cancer are diagnosed at a late stage when their tumor is inoperable, leaving these patients with few treatment options. And because the disease is significantly more resistant to chemotherapy than other cancers, it can even be difficult to treat in its earliest stages. Despite the fact that there is an urgent need for better outcomes for pancreatic cancer, research is often not prioritized because pancreatic cancer affects a relatively small population compared to other cancers, and clinical research can be risky and expensive.
"Today's five-year survival rate of 12% is too low and we need new treatment options now," said PanCAN Chief Science Officer Lynn Matrisian, PhD, MBA. "PanCAN launched our own clinical program to de-risk companies' investment through both the Therapeutic Accelerator Award and the Precision Promise platform to facilitate rapid advances in this disease."
PanCAN continues to take bold actions to improve the lives of everyone impacted by pancreatic cancer, including the investment of more than $208 million since 2003 to advance scientific research. PanCAN created the multimillion-dollar Therapeutic Accelerator Award in 2022 as a research investment focused on supporting companies working on new pancreatic cancer therapies that plan to conduct early-stage (Phase 1 and 2) clinical trials for these therapies.
"Oncolytics is so pleased to receive this innovative award and have the opportunity to work with PanCAN," said Dr. Matt Coffey, President and Chief Executive Officer of Oncolytics Biotech Inc. "This generous grant will enable early and late-stage patients with pancreatic cancer to potentially benefit from another commonly employed chemotherapy backbone, as FOLFIRINOX and gemcitabine + nab-paclitaxel are the most frequently used chemotherapy standards of care in both the first and second-line setting. By teaming up with PanCAN, we believe we may be able to expedite development and provide pancreatic cancer patients with a bespoke immunotherapeutic treatment option."
Oncolytics plans to utilize the grant funding to study pelareorep in combination with modified FOLFIRINOX chemotherapy in patients with metastatic pancreatic cancer who have not received prior cancer treatment. In addition, a separate group of patients will receive this combination along with a checkpoint inhibitor to verify synergies previously observed in this patient population. The goal of this research is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of these combination therapies. Efficacy will be assessed by measuring the effect of the treatments on tumor size, progression-free survival, and overall survival. In addition, immune responses to treatment will be assessed.
The funding offered through the PanCAN Therapeutic Accelerator Award represents an innovative and groundbreaking way for a non-profit to accelerate drug development. If the result of the clinical trial is positive, the hope is that the selected investigational treatment combination will be incorporated into the PanCAN Precision Promise adaptive clinical trial. While Precision Promise provides an effective approach for late-stage research on new pancreatic cancer therapies, many companies are not investing in the early-stage research necessary for late-stage studies and potential drug approval in this disease.

About Oncolytics Biotech Inc.
Oncolytics is a biotechnology company developing pelareorep, an intravenously delivered immunotherapeutic agent.

Oncolytics is currently conducting and planning combination clinical trials with pelareorep in solid and hematological malignancies as it advances towards registrational studies in metastatic breast cancer and pancreatic cancer.

This press release contains forward-looking statements, within the meaning of Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended and forward-looking information under applicable Canadian securities laws (such forward-looking statements and forward-looking information are collectively referred to herein as "forward-looking statements"). Forward-looking statements contained in this press release include statements regarding Oncolytics' belief as to the potential and benefits of pelareorep as a cancer therapeutic; the Company's anticipated use of proceeds from the Offering: the terms of the Warrants, the Compensation Warrants; the Company's plans to advance towards a registrational study in metastatic pancreatic cancer; and other statements related to anticipated developments in Oncolytics' business and technologies. In any forward-looking statement in which Oncolytics expresses an expectation or belief as to future results, such expectations or beliefs are expressed in good faith and are believed to have a reasonable basis, but there can be no assurance that the statement or expectation or belief will be achieved. Such forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties, which could cause Oncolytics' actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements. Such risks and uncertainties include, among others, the availability of funds and resources to pursue research and development projects, the efficacy of pelareorep as a cancer treatment, the success and timely completion of clinical studies and trials, Oncolytics' ability to successfully commercialize pelareorep, uncertainties related to the research and development of pharmaceuticals, uncertainties related to the regulatory process and general changes to the economic environment. In particular, the Company may be impacted by business interruptions resulting from COVID-19 coronavirus, including operating, manufacturing supply chain, clinical trial and project development delays and disruptions, labour shortages, travel and shipping disruption, and shutdowns (including as a result of government regulation and prevention measures). It is unknown whether and how Oncolytics may be affected if the COVID-19 pandemic persists for an extended period of time. The Company may incur expenses or delays relating to such events outside of its control, which could have a material adverse impact on the Company's business, operating results and financial condition. Investors should consult Oncolytics' quarterly and annual filings with the Canadian and U.S. securities commissions for additional information on risks and uncertainties relating to the forward-looking statements.
