Oncolytics Biotech Inc T.ONC

Alternate Symbol(s):  ONCY

Oncolytics Biotech Inc. is a clinical-stage biotechnology company. The Company is focused on developing pelareorep, an intravenously delivered immunotherapeutic agent that activates the innate and adaptive immune systems and weakens tumor defense mechanisms. This compound induces anti-cancer immune responses and promotes an inflamed tumor phenotype turning cold tumors hot through innate and adaptive immune responses to treat a variety of cancers. This improves the ability of the immune system to fight cancer, making tumors more susceptible to a broad range of oncology treatments. The Company’s primary focus is to advance its programs in hormone receptor-positive / human epidermal growth factor 2- negative (HR+/HER2-) metastatic breast cancer and advanced/metastatic pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma to registration-enabling clinical studies. In addition, it is exploring opportunities for registrational programs in other gastrointestinal cancers through its GOBLET platform study.

RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE:RE: Pelareorep + Paclitaxel = ADC/HER2 failed breast cancerAs part of the pro-inflammatory activity, certain signals, referred to as “damage-associated molecular patterns”, (DAMPs) are emitted. DAMPs are endogenous molecules that would have been concealed in normal cells but that are released upon stress, cell injury, or cell death. As a result of this signaling pattern, an interphase is established with the host immune system (particularly with dendritic cells). Following exposure of dendritic cells to cancer cells, they succumb to ‘immunogenic cell death’ (ICD). This leads to priming of the adaptive arm of the immune system (consisting of various T-cell subsets). These activated T cells in turn target therapy-resistant cancer cells. This underpins the theory that chemotherapeutic agents, oncolytic viruses and peptides may induce ICD and in a basic way explain ONCY's pelareorep is also able to remodel the TME and overcome T-cell resistance and T-cell exhaustion.
