CG Oncology announces first patient dosed in PIVOT-006 Phase 3 trial

CG Oncology announced the first patient has been dosed in the PIVOT-006 Phase 3 clinical trial of cretostimogene for the treatment of patients with intermediate-risk NMIBC following transurethral resection of the bladder tumor, TURBT. “The dosing of the first patient in our PIVOT-006 trial advances cretostimogene earlier in the treatment paradigm for NMIBC patients who face limited treatment options, frequent disease recurrence and repetitive surgery,” said Arthur Kuan, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, CG Oncology. “Intermediate-risk NMIBC patients face a difficult combination of disease characterized by tumor recurrence and a shortage of BCG therapy which is often reserved for use only in high-risk patients, limiting treatment options for intermediate-risk patients. Our goal with the PIVOT-006 trial is to advance cretostimogene as a potential backbone oncolytic immunotherapy.”
