Olvimulogene nanivacirepvec

WESTLAKE VILLAGE, Calif. , May 06, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Genelux Corporation (NASDAQ: GNLX), a late clinical-stage immuno-oncology company, today announced financial results for the first quarter of 2025 and provided general business updates. “The first quarter of 2025 has been highly productive and sets a strong foundation for the year ahead. We are well positioned to advance Olvi-Vec across multiple high-need cancer indications, with encouraging regulatory feedback from the FDA on our OnPrime Phase 3 registrational trial in resistant/refractory ovarian cancer, promising early lung cancer clinical data from our ongoing Phase 1b/2 study, and increasing patient enrollment in our U.S. Phase 2 lung cancer trial” said Thomas Zindrick , President, CEO and Chairman of Genelux . “We are energized by our momentum and look forward to advancing our strategic initiatives through key upcoming value inflection points this year and into 2026.” Pipeline Highlights Earlier this quarter, the completion of a productive Type D meeting with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) regarding Olvi-Vec for the treatment of platinum-resistant/refractory ovarian cancer was announced. The FDA stated that data from the ongoing OnPrime/GOG-3076 Phase 3 registrational trial (NCT05281471) could potentially support traditional approval if a clinically meaningful progression-free survival advantage is demonstrated without a decrement in overall survival. The FDA also recommended that Genelux request a pre-BLA meeting with topline safety and efficacy data following study completion to discuss next steps. The trial is expected to readout in 1H 2026 for topline data. The company also announced preliminary safety and anti-tumor activity data from the Phase 1b dose escalation portion of their ongoing Phase 1b/2 trial (OLVI-VEC-SCLC-202) of Olvi-Vec immunochemotherapy in patients with platinum-relapsed or platinum-refractory extensive small cell lung cancer. Systemic administration of Olvi-Vec in the initial dose escalation cohorts achieved a 71% disease control rate (5/7 evaluable participants), with (i) two of the five exhibiting partial responses and (ii) all five showing consistent reductions across all target lesions, including a tumor reduction of approximately 79% in one participant. Three participants, including one heavily pretreated individual, achieved stable disease with tumor size reductions of 24% to 29.2%. Olvi-Vec was generally well tolerated with a favorable safety profile, and no maximum tolerated dose had been reached at the time of data cutoff on February 19, 2025 . Enrollment into dose escalation cohorts remained ongoing to further investigate safety and determine the recommended intravenous dose for the Phase 2 trial, with updated interim results anticipated in the second half of 2025. Patient enrollment has been increasing in the ongoing US based Phase 2 trial for the systemic administration of Olvi-Vec in recurrent non-small cell lung cancer, with an interim readout anticipated in the second half of 2025. Business Updates In February, the company announced that Matthew Pulisic joined as its new Chief Financial Officer, effective January 30, 2025 . Mr. Pulisic brings over 19 years of finance and commercial experience in the biopharmaceutical industry, with a background spanning the United States , Europe , and Asia . Prior to joining Genelux , he served as Vice President of Finance at Arrowhead Pharmaceuticals, where he played a key role in shaping the company’s financial direction, establishing a commercial manufacturing facility, and driving operational improvements. He began his career at Amgen as a Research Associate before transitioning into finance, eventually holding senior roles including Finance Director of Amgen Worldwide and Head of Capital Finance. In March, the company completed an underwritten offering of 3,000,000 shares of its common stock at an offering price of $3.50 per share, raising approximately $10.5 million in gross proceeds. Titan Partners Group acted as the sole bookrunner for the offering. “This successful equity raise strengthens our balance sheet, extends our runway into the third quarter of 2026 and enables us to confidently advance our strategic priorities through key upcoming milestones, including the Phase 3 topline readout in resistant/refractory ovarian cancer”, said Matthew Pulisic , Chief Financial Officer of Genelux . First Quarter 2025 Financial Results Cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments were $35.1 million as of March 31, 2025 . We expect our existing cash, cash equivalents, and short-term investments will provide runway into the third quarter of 2026. Research and development (R&D) expenses were $4.7 million and $4.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, an increase of $0.7 million . Significant variations between periods are primarily a result of a $1.4 million increase in clinical and regulatory expenses relating to increased clinical trial costs associated with our Phase 3 On Prime Registration trial in 2025, partially offset by a $0.6 million decrease in stock-related compensation in 2025, relating to the decreased cost of stock options and restricted stock units in 2025. General and administrative (G&A) expenses were $3.1 million and $4.1 million for the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, respectively, a decrease of $1.0 million . Significant variations between periods are primarily a result of a $0.7 million decrease in stock compensation expense in 2025, relating to the decreased cost of stock options and restricted stock units in 2025. Net loss was $7.5 million for the first quarter of 2025, or a net loss per share of $0.21 , as compared to net loss of $7.9 million for the first quarter of 2024, or a net loss per share of $0.29 . About Genelux Corporation Genelux is a late clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on developing a pipeline of next-generation oncolytic immunotherapies for patients suffering from aggressive and/or difficult-to-treat solid tumor types. Olvi-Vec currently is being evaluated in two U.S. -based clinical trials: OnPrime/GOG-3076, a multi-center, randomized, open-label Phase 3 registrational trial evaluating the efficacy and safety of Olvi-Vec in combination platinum-doublet + bevacizumab compared with physician's choice of chemotherapy and bevacizumab in patients with platinum-resistant/refractory ovarian cancer; and, VIRO-25, a multi-center, randomized, open-label Phase 2 trial evaluating the efficacy and safety of Olvi-Vec & Platinum-doublet + physician's choice of immune checkpoint inhibitor compared to docetaxel in non-small-cell lung cancer. Additionally, Olvi-Vec currently is being evaluated for dose selection in Olvi-Vec-SCLC-202, a China -based, multi-center, open label Ph1b evaluating the efficacy and safety of Olvi-Vec & Platinum-doublet in recurrent small-cell lung cancer. The core of Genelux's discovery and development efforts revolves around its’ proprietary CHOICE™ platform from which the Company has developed an extensive library of isolated and engineered oncolytic vaccinia virus immunotherapeutic product candidates, including Olvi-Vec.
