Sector Update: Health Care Stocks Fall in Afternoon Trading

(RTTNews) - Actinium Pharmaceuticals (ATNM) issued a regulatory update on the planned Biologics License Application filing for Iomab-B in patients with active relapsed or refractory acute myeloid leukemia. The company has concluded both clinical and Chemistry, Manufacturing and Controls interactions with the FDA regarding the BLA pathway for Iomab-B. The FDA has now determined that the analyses from the SIERRA trial do not adequately support a BLA filing for Iomab-B. The FDA has now determined that demonstrating an overall survival benefit in a randomized head-to-head trial is required for a BLA filing.
The FDA has advised Actinium to conduct a study to evaluate allogeneic bone marrow transplant using Iomab-B plus a reduced intensity conditioning regimen of fludarabine and total body irradiation versus allogeneic BMT using reduced intensity conditioning comprised of cyclophosphamide plus Flu/TBI, a difference from the SIERRA trial. Also, the proposed additional trial will not allow crossover, which was allowed in SIERRA.
Shares of Actinium Pharmaceuticals are down 64% in pre-market trade on Monday.

Why Is Actinium Pharmaceuticals Stock Falling In Pre-market?

(RTTNews) - Actinium Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (ATNM), a developer of targeted radiotherapies, reported Monday new analyses from the positive Phase 3 SIERRA trial of Iomab-B, showing that it markedly increased long term survival in patients 65 years or older with active relapsed or refractory acute myeloid leukemia or r/r AML.
In pre-market activity on the NYSE, Actinium shares were gaining around 2 percent to trade at $7.
The analyses were reported in oral presentations at the 2024 Tandem Meetings | Transplantation & Cellular Therapy (TCT) Meetings of ASTCT (American Society for Transplantation and Cellular Therapy and CIBMTR (Center for International Blood and Marrow Transplant Research).
The company noted that the presentations reported unprecedented 100% access to potentially curative bone marrow transplant or BMT and engraftment in evaluable patients with active r/r AML and improved long-term survival outcomes greater than 2 years in patients age 65 or older.
Active relapsed or refractory AML patients 65+ years receiving an Iomab-B led BMT achieved significant improvement in survival at one and two years compared to control arm patients none of whom survived even one year, the company noted.
Actinium said the SIERRA results presented at TCT demonstrate Iomab-B's ability to overcome multiple high-risk features including a TP53 genetic mutation, advanced age and treatment resistant disease.
Sandesh Seth, Actinium's Chairman and CEO, said, "SIERRA was a first of its kind trial to use targeted radiotherapy conditioning to enable potentially curative BMT in patients who are not typically considered for transplant in current practice. Importantly, SIERRA demonstrated superior outcomes with an Iomab-B led BMT to current standard of care in the control arm that included approved therapies targeting FLT3 and IDH mutations and venetoclax, a BCL-2 inhibitor. We are incredibly excited that Iomab-B led BMT improved outcomes across all major patient segments including patients with advanced age and comorbidities, treatment resistant disease and high-risk features including TP53 mutations, which are mostly associated with dismal outcomes."

Actinium Pharmaceuticals Background Information
(This description is provided by the company.)
Actinium Pharmaceuticals, Inc. is a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company developing ARCs or Antibody Radiation-Conjugates, which combine the targeting ability of antibodies with the cell killing ability of radiation. Actinium's lead application for its ARCs is targeted conditioning, which is intended to selectively deplete a patient's disease or cancer cells and certain immune cells prior to a BMT or Bone Marrow Transplant, Gene Therapy or Adoptive Cell Therapy (ACT) such as CAR-T to enable engraftment of these transplanted cells with minimal toxicities. With its ARC approach, Actinium seeks to improve patient outcomes and access to these potentially curative treatments by eliminating or reducing the non-targeted chemotherapy that is used for conditioning in standard practice currently. Its lead product candidate, I-131 apamistamab (Iomab-B) is being studied in the ongoing pivotal Phase 3 Study of Iomab-B in Elderly Relapsed or Refractory Acute Myeloid Leukemia (SIERRA) trial for BMT conditioning. The SIERRA trial is over seventy-five percent enrolled and positive single-agent, feasibility and safety data has been highlighted at ASH, TCT, ASCO and SOHO annual meetings. More information on this Phase 3 clinical trial can be found at sierratrial.com. I-131 apamistamab will also be studied as a targeted conditioning agent in a Phase 1 study with a CD19 CAR T-cell Therapy with Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center and Phase 1/2 anti-HIV stem cell gene therapy with UC Davis. In addition, the company is developing a multi-disease, multi-target pipeline of clinical-stage ARCs targeting the antigens CD45 and CD33 for targeted conditioning and as a therapeutic either in combination with other therapeutic modalities or as a single agent for patients with a broad range of hematologic malignancies including acute myeloid leukemia, myelodysplastic syndrome and multiple myeloma. Ongoing combination trials include its CD33 alpha ARC, Actimab-A, in combination with the salvage chemotherapy CLAG-M and the Bcl-2 targeted therapy venetoclax. Underpinning its clinical programs is its proprietary AWE (Antibody Warhead Enabling) technology platform. This is where its intellectual property portfolio of over 100 patents, know-how, collective research and expertise in the field are being leveraged to construct and study novel ARCs and ARC combinations to bolster its pipeline for strategic purposes. Its AWE technology platform is currently being utilized in a collaborative research partnership with Astellas Pharma, Inc.
