RE:RE:RE:RE:Great presentation in OncologyWhen I saw that slide, it did not seem to indicate whether it was from pre-clinical or from the phase 1a. I figured it was pre-clinical but thought I should ask to be sure and I am sure glad I did! But why wouldn't that info be something they would be anxcious to share with us??? I should not have had to ask about it. What is the point is holding back such info? And what else could they share that they are not sharing?
But, these are mild complaints. The call was outstanding! You can tell they know they have a really, really good chance of having something with Sort1+ and you can also tell from the already disclosed Chinese partnership interest and the "inbound Interest" comment as well as THTX being somewhat overwhelmed by where to go next with this plstformin their strategic discussions that they are gettting interest from big pharma as well.
We don't yet have PoC (or at least there are not telling us yet) but the odds seems stacked pretty high in favor of that. Things could end up being very, very interesting over the next 12-18 months as Sort1+ moves forward.

It seems they've gotten there with minimal patients (9) which while that sounds slow, actually means they've been able to move up each level with just one patient because there was no SAEs. In other words, they haven't had to use that 3 patient level until this 420 level. So that's actually good.
It did appear he's talking down any efficacy signs and I can understand why now. They may actually get to the DLT or their targeted level with 15 or less patients. The good is that this means they didn't have a lot of SAEs setting them back such that they needed to move ahead with the 3 patient levels and have moved quickly into those high dose levels. The bad is they got there with so few SAEs that they used the minimum number of patients. The range was 15 to 25 and looks like they'll be closer to the 15. Obviously this means they wont' have a lot of a population to monitor for efficacy but I would guess the ones from 1.5x on they are scanning and getting that. Seems they'll hit that MTD soon though. It may actually be literally end of year if they go up one more level though and his mentioning end 21/early22 seemed to incorporate if they decide to take it up one more level or maybe even two more levels. So while not getting a year end update is a negative, it means they would be seeing a huge, huge dose that would increaes efficacy even more. That's my quick read.
