Executive Interview – PsiOxus

PsiOxus Therapeutics is an Oxford-based immunotherapy company that has developed a tumour-targeted delivery platform based on its lead oncolytic vaccine, Enadenotucirev (formerly ColoAd1). Enadenotucirev is an oncolytic virus that selectively kills cancer cells by lysis and is currently being studied in four clinical trials in various cancer indications. Under the PsiOxus collaboration with Bristol Myers Squibb, a Phase I combination study of Enadenotucirev with checkpoint inhibitor nivolumab (Opdivo) in a range of tumours, is due to start in Q316. PsiOxus also has a next-generation platform (T-SIGn Therapy) in development. This platform enables the anti-tumour effect of Enadenotucirev to be expanded through the addition of new genes (‘Armed EnAd’) creating a broad range of unique oncolytic immune therapeutics. NG-348, the first product candidate to emerge from this platform, will start Phase I in 2017.
