Exact Therapeutics Announces Clinical Trial Update
OSLO/LONDON, 08 March 2022
EXACT THERAPEUTICS AS ("EXACT-Tx", Euronext Growth: EXTX), a clinical stage
precision health company utilizing Acoustic Cluster Therapy (ACT®) across
multiple therapeutic areas, today provides an update regarding the phase I
ACTIVATE study.
As reported in Q4 2021, EXACT-Tx filed a protocol amendment regarding its
ACTIVATE phase I clinical trial with the United Kingdom Medicines and Healthcare
products Regulatory Agency (MHRA). This week the MHRA issued a response to
EXACT-Tx requiring an additional submission and approval of documentation
regarding the protocol amendment. The Company expects that meeting this
requirement which is specifically focused on the Ultrasound system used in
combination with PS101, from the regulator will impact the timing of additional
patient recruitment.
So far, there have been seven patients enrolled in the study with five patients'
data evaluable to date for dose limiting toxicity. A number of valuable and
encouraging insights have been gained from this first cohort of treated
patients.
