BPX-601 is under clinical development by Bellicum Pharmaceuticals and currently in the Phase II in clinical pathway. The characteristics of the clinical trial as well as other attributes related to the drug, regulations, and company play a fundamental role in ensuring the likelihood of transition that the drug moves from its current development stage to next.

According to GlobalData, the latest event to affect BPX-601’s likelihood of approval (LoA) and phase transition for Metastatic Hormone Refractory (Castration Resistant, Androgen-Independent) Prostate Cancer took place on 30 Aug 2022, which increased the likelihood that the drug progresses to the next phase in its clinical pathway and increased the likelihood of final approval for this indication.

GlobalData uses proprietary data and analytics to provide a complete picture of this assessment in their BPX-601 Likelihood of Approval (LoA) and Phase Transition Success Rate (PTSR) Report.

BPX-601 overview

BPX-601 is under development for the treatment of solid tumors including prostate cancer, gastro esophageal junction carcinoma, metastatic gastric cancer and hormone-refractory prostate cancer. It is administered through intravenous (infusion) route. The therapy is composed of retroviral vector transduced CAR T cells that target prostate stem cell antigen (PSCA) and rimiducid. The drug candidate is based on the GoCAR-T technology. The technology includes proprietary inducible MyD88/CD40 (iMC) activation switch, to enable control of the activation and proliferation of the T cells through the scheduled administration of a course of rimiducid infusions. It was also under development for the treatment of leukemia and metastatic pancreatic cancer.

GlobalData, the leading provider of industry intelligence, provided the underlying data, research, and analysis used to produce this article.

GlobalData’s Likelihood of Approval analytics tool dynamically assesses and predicts how likely a drug will move to the next stage in its clinical pathway (PTSR), as well as how likely the drug will be approved (LoA). This is based on a proprietary algorithm built from the drugs’ sales forecast, regulatory milestones, cost forecasts, WACC rate and other proprietary data sources found on GlobalData’s Pharmaceutical Intelligence Center.
