Ipsen provides update on CONTACT-02 Phase III trial in metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer following final overall survival analysis

Monday, September 16, 2024

Ipsen announced detailed final overall survival (OS) data from the Phase III CONTACT-02 trial investigating the combination of Cabometyx® (cabozantinib) and atezolizumab in metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). The trial investigated the combination regimen versus a second novel hormonal therapy (NHT) in men previously treated with one NHT and measurable soft-tissue disease. At a median follow-up of 24.0 months, these data demonstrated a numerical but not statistically significant improvement in OS for the combination versus a second NHT (hazard ratio: 0.89; 95% confidence interval: 0.72-1.10; P=0.296). As previously announced, the trial met the other primary endpoint of progression-free survival (PFS), demonstrating a statistically significant benefit in PFS.1 Safety for the combination appeared to be consistent with the known safety profiles of the individual medicines, and no new safety signals were identified.

Based on the results of the final OS analysis and anticipated challenging regulatory environment in the countries in which Ipsen has commercialization rights (outside the US and Japan), Ipsen will not pursue regulatory submissions for this combination regimen in mCRPC.

We remain confident, in the proven profile of Cabometyx as a monotherapy and in combination with immunotherapy across approved indications, as well as its ongoing future potential.

Ipsen wishes to thank the patients, their families and healthcare teams for their participation in this clinical trial.
