NANOBIOTIX Announces Red Journal Publication of Preclinical Data Showing Radioenhancer NBTXR3 May "Reprogram" the Tumor Microenvironment to Overcome Anti-PD-1 Resistance and Evoke Abscopal Effect

Data Published in the November 2021 Edition of the International Journal of Radiation Oncology, Biology, Physics (Red Journal)
Study hypothesized that NBTXR3 in combination with radiotherapy and anti-PD-1 could transform irradiated tumors into "self-vaccines" in anti-PD-1-sensitive and anti-PD-1-resistant mouse models
Data supported the hypothesis that the triple combination could effectively control primary and metastatic tumors, evoke abscopal effect, and reduce the possibility of developing distant lung metastases
PARIS & CAMBRIDGE, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--September 28, 2021--Regulatory News:
NANOBIOTIX (Euronext : NANO -- NASDAQ: NBTX - the Company''), a late-clinical stage biotechnology company pioneering nanophysics-based approaches to expand treatment possibilities for patients with cancer,
today announced the publication of preclinical findings with the University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center (MD Anderson) in the International Journal of Radiation Oncology, Biology, Physics (Red Journal). These data support the
further exploration of potential first-in-class, solid tumor-agnostic, therapeutic combination-agnostic radioenhancer NBTXR3 as a new therapeutic option seeking to induce significant tumor cell death when activated by radiotherapy, prime immune
response, and overcome resistance to anti-PD-1.
"Patients across the oncology landscape are in urgent need of innovation that can make a difference," said Laurent Levy, co-founder and chief executive officer of Nanobiotix. "We are proud to collaborate with MD Anderson as we
seek to validate the broadly applicable, local and systemic potential benefits of NBTXR3. The Red Journal provides a critical platform for the advancement of radiation oncology, and we believe this publication represents an important
contribution to the academic and medical research communities as we seek to expand treatment possibilities for millions of patients with cancer."
Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) such as anti-PD-1 have shown tremendous promise for the treatment of some patients with metastatic tumors. Oncologists have hypothesized the possibility of combining ICIs with radiotherapy (RT) to control
the irradiated tumor and turn those tumors into a "self-vaccine" that could improve systemic control of distant metastases as well. To date, however, most patients with cancer have shown resistance to anti-PD-1, limiting the effect of this
This preclinical mouse model study conducted in collaboration between MD Anderson and Nanobiotix hypothesized that NBTXR3 could "reprogram" the tumor microenvironment in local and distant tumors, overcoming resistance to anti-PD-1 when
activated by radiotherapy (RT) in mouse models of metastatic lung cancer.
Key Findings on the Triple Combination of NBTXR3 plus Radiotherapy plus Anti-PD-1 in the Mouse Model
NBTXR3 improved tumor treatment in both anti-PD-1 sensitive and resistant models
NBTXR3 promoted the activities of several antitumor immune pathways
NBTXR3 increased cell death in irradiated tumor and facilitated immune response in unirradiated tumors
NBTXR3 delayed the growth of targeted and distant tumors, improved survival rates, and reduced spontaneous metastases
This study supports further exploration of the triple combination of NBTXR3 plus RT plus anti-PD-1 as a new therapeutic option for the treatment of both primary and metastatic lung cancer, and the potential of this combination to achieve the
promise of transforming irradiated tumors into "self-vaccines." These results could support significance for the radioenhancer's clinical application, as the strong activation of an effective immune response in anti-PD-1 resistant tumors may
expand treatment possibilities for the majority of patients who do not respond to anti-PD-1 therapy.
NBTXR3 is a novel, potentially first-in-class oncology product composed of functionalized hafnium oxide nanoparticles that is administered via one-time intratumoral injection and activated by radiotherapy. The product candidate's physical
mechanism of action (MoA) is designed to induce significant tumor cell death in the injected tumor when activated by radiotherapy, subsequently triggering adaptive immune response and long-term anti-cancer memory. Given the physical MoA,
Nanobiotix believes that NBTXR3 could be scalable across any solid tumor that can be treated with radiotherapy and across any therapeutic combination, particularly immune checkpoint inhibitors.
NBTXR3 is being evaluated in locally advanced head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) as the primary development pathway. The company-sponsored phase I dose escalation and dose expansion study has produced favorable safety data and
early signs of efficacy; and a phase III global registrational study is planned to launch in 2021. In February 2020, the United States Food and Drug Administration granted regulatory Fast Track designation for the investigation of NBTXR3
activated by radiation therapy, with or without cetuximab, for the treatment of patients with locally advanced HNSCC who are not eligible for platinum-based chemotherapy-the same population being evaluated in the planned phase III study.
Nanobiotix has also prioritized an Immuno-Oncology development program-beginning with a Company-sponsored phase I clinical study evaluating NBTXR3 activated by radiotherapy in combination with anti-PD-1 checkpoint inhibitors for patients with
locoregional recurrent or recurrent/metastatic HNSCC and lung or liver metastases from any primary cancer eligible for anti-PD-1 therapy.
Given the Company's focus areas, and balanced against the scalable potential of NBTXR3, Nanobiotix has engaged in a strategic collaboration strategy with world class partners to expand development of the product candidate in parallel with its
priority development pathways. Pursuant to this strategy, in 2019 Nanobiotix entered into a broad, comprehensive clinical research collaboration with The University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center to sponsor several phase I and phase II
studies to evaluate NBTXR3 across tumor types and therapeutic combinations.
Nanobiotix is a late-stage clinical biotechnology company pioneering disruptive, physics-based therapeutic approaches to revolutionize treatment outcomes for millions of patients; supported by people committed to making a difference for
humanity. The company's philosophy is rooted in the concept of pushing past the boundaries of what is known to expand possibilities for human life.
Incorporated in 2003, Nanobiotix is headquartered in Paris, France. The company also has subsidiaries in Cambridge, Massachusetts (United States), France, Spain, and Germany. Nanobiotix has been listed on Euronext: Paris since 2012 and on the
Nasdaq Global Select Market in New York City since December 2020.
Nanobiotix is the owner of more than 30 umbrella patents associated with three (3) nanotechnology platforms with applications in 1) oncology; 2) bioavailability and biodistribution; and 3) disorders of the central nervous system. The
company's resources are primarily devoted to the development of its lead product candidate-NBTXR3-which is the product of its proprietary oncology platform and has already achieved market authorization in Europe for the treatment of patients
with soft tissue sarcoma under the brand name Hensify .
