Novocure (NASDAQ:NVCR) today announced the results of the METIS phase 3 clinical trial in brain metastases from non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) will be presented at the 2024 American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) Annual Meeting in Chicago, to be held from May 31 to June 4.
METIS was a randomized phase 3 clinical trial of stereotactic radiosurgery with or without Tumor Treating Fields (TTFields) therapy for patients with 1-10 brain metastases from NSCLC. In March, Novocure announced METIS met its primary endpoint, demonstrating a statistically significant improvement in time to intracranial progression for adult patients with Tumor Treating Fields (TTFields) therapy and supportive care compared to supportive care alone.
"We are honored to present the results of the METIS clinical trial as a late-breaking abstract this year at ASCO, the largest global oncology conference," said Asaf Danziger, Novocure's Chief Executive Officer. "Patients with brain metastases from non-small cell lung cancer need more treatment options. The METIS trial demonstrated that TTFields Therapy delayed intracranial progression while preserving neurological function, which is critical for these underserved patients. We look forward to robust discussion around the positive results of the METIS clinical trial, as well as other TTFields therapy program updates at ASCO 2024."
The METIS data will be presented on June 3 as a late-breaking abstract during ASCO's Central Nervous System Tumors session from 8 a.m. to 10 a.m. CDT. Lead author Minesh Mehta, MD, Chief of Radiation Oncology and Deputy Director at Miami Cancer Institute, part of Baptist Health South Florida, will give the presentation.
The oral presentation of the METIS clinical trial data is one of four abstracts on TTFields therapy to be included at the 2024 ASCO Annual Meeting.
Abstract titles from Novocure-sponsored and partner programs include:
