BeyondSpring Inc. announced that the company's clinical trial data for its innovative lead asset, Plinabulin, for Neutropenia prevention and non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) treatment has been selected for presentation at this year's BIO Asia International Conference in Tokyo, Japan. BeyondSpring is advancing Plinabulin, a small molecule that alters the tumor micro-environment and stimulates dendritic cell maturation and T-cell activation, into a global Phase 3 clinical trial for NSCLC treatment and global Phase 2/3 clinical trial for Neutropenia prevention. Plinabulin offers a same-day dosing advantage over G-CSF, which should be administered 24 hours after chemotherapy, per G-CSF label (next-day dosing), by which time a significant damage to neutrophils has occurred. Plinabulin has also demonstrated a reduction in clinical sequelae associated with Docetaxel-induced Neutropenia, including infections, sepsis, hospitalizations and the need for Docetaxel dose reductions.
