In the first paragraph, stock information was added. Paragraphs 2 to 8 provide a detailed introduction to the disease and the clinical trial situation. Reuters, Oct. 6 - ArriVent BioPharma (AVBP.O) said on Tuesday that its oral therapy for treating rare lung cancer failed to meet its primary goal of delaying disease progression in a late-stage clinical trial, leading to its shares plunging by 63% in premarket trading. The therapy, firmonertinib, targets previously untreated advanced non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients who carry a gene mutation called the EGFR exon 20 insertion, which can promote cancer growth. This mutation accounts for about 0.5% to 1% of all NSCLC cases. NSCLC represents about 85% of all lung cancer cases. In the trial, according to independent reviewers, the 240mg dosage developed by ArriVent extended median progression-free survival to 11 months, compared to 9.5 months in the chemotherapy group. Chief Executive Officer Bing Yao stated that the improvement in progression-free survival (defined as the length of time patients live without worsening or spread of disease) was not significant. "These disappointing results are not what we had hoped for, especially for patients with EGFR exon 20 insertion-mutant NSCLC who are in urgent need of more effective treatments," said Yao. The company is evaluating the full data set to determine the most suitable development path for firmonertinib. ArriVent stated that no new safety signals were observed in the trial. The therapy has already been approved in China for non-small cell lung cancer patients carrying specific mutations.
