TME Pharma N.V. announced a positive clinical update on the survival of first-line glioblastoma patients in the GLORIA expansion arm evaluating NOX-A12, TME Pharma'sCXCL12 inhibitor, in combination with standard of care radiotherapy and anti-VEGF, bevacizumab. After 15 months on study (median), 83% of GLORIA expansion arm patients (5 of 6) remain alive. As long as treatment or follow-up for these patients is ongoing, median overall survival (mOS) will continue to improve.

As a reference, the expected median overall survival for patients under current standard of care with chemotherapy refractory tumors (MGMT unmethylated) and whose tumor remains detectable after surgical intervention is approximately 10 months.
