Frequently asked questions about IMA203

What is IMA203?

IMA203 is an investigational cell therapy being developed by Immatics N.V. for the treatment of solid tumors, including cutaneous melanoma and refractory cancers. It is designed to target PRAME, a protein expressed in several tumor types. IMA203 is currently in clinical development and has received Regenerative Medicine Advanced Therapy (RMAT) designation from the FDA.

What is IMA203 used for?

IMA203 is being studied for the treatment of cutaneous melanoma, including previously treated, unresectable or metastatic cutaneous melanoma, as well as refractory cancers and other solid tumors. It is also being evaluated in synovial sarcoma in combination with mRNA-4203. IMA203 is investigational and has not been approved for any indication.

What does IMA203 target?

IMA203 targets PRAME, a cancer-testis antigen that is overexpressed in multiple solid tumors, including melanoma. By targeting PRAME, IMA203 aims to direct a T cell response against PRAME-positive tumor cells. This mechanism is being evaluated in clinical trials for patients with PRAME-expressing cancers.

Who is developing IMA203?

IMA203 is being developed by Immatics N.V., a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on T cell receptor therapies. Immatics trades on the Nasdaq under the ticker symbol IMTX. The company is conducting multiple clinical trials of IMA203, including a Phase 3 study in cutaneous melanoma.

What phase is IMA203 in?

IMA203 is in Phase 1 and Phase 3 clinical development. The Phase 3 trial, SUPRAME, is evaluating IMA203 versus investigator's choice of treatment in previously treated, unresectable or metastatic cutaneous melanoma. IMA203 is investigational and has not been approved by the FDA.

What clinical trials is IMA203 in?

IMA203 is being studied in three recruiting trials: NCT06946225, a Phase 1 trial combining IMA203 with mRNA-4203 in cutaneous melanoma and synovial sarcoma; NCT06743126, a Phase 3 trial in cutaneous melanoma; and NCT03686124, a Phase 1 trial in refractory solid tumors. These trials are enrolling adult patients.

Is IMA203 the same as IMA203 Product?

IMA203 is also known as IMA203 Product or IMA203 product-flat dose. These names refer to the same investigational therapy developed by Immatics N.V. for PRAME-positive solid tumors. The different naming reflects product formulations or dosing descriptions used in clinical development.
