Investment summary
Transgene is developing viral vector-based immunotherapies for combination therapies in oncology and infectious diseases. The company is running multiple clinical trials, including a Phase 2 trial combining TG4010 with Opdivo and chemotherapy in 1L NSCLC, and a Phase 1b/2 trial with Pexa-Vec+Opdivo in 1L advanced liver cancer. Transgene and partner SillaJen are running a global 600-patient Phase 3 study (PHOCUS) for Pexa-Vec+sorafenib in advanced liver cancer. Next-generation platforms Invir.IO and myvac continue to progress, with assets from both expected to enter the clinic in 2019. Gross cash and short-term investments at 30 September were €26.6m. Transgene also has the potential to monetise $48m in Tasly Biopharmaceuticals shares, received in August for the sale of full Greater China rights to T6002 and T1050.
