Candel Therapeutics Reports Positive Phase 2a Trial Results

Candel Therapeutics ( (CADL) ) has provided an update.

On March 26, 2025, Candel Therapeutics announced positive final survival data from its phase 2a clinical trial of CAN-2409 in patients with stage III/IV non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) who were inadequately responding to immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) treatment. The trial results showed a median overall survival (mOS) of 24.5 months for patients with inadequate ICI response and 21.5 months for those with progressive disease, significantly exceeding the survival rates of 9.8–11.8 months reported in similar populations treated with standard chemotherapy. The data also highlighted a potential precision medicine approach, with non-squamous NSCLC patients showing improved survival rates and a systemic anti-tumor response. These findings suggest CAN-2409 may offer a new treatment avenue for NSCLC patients with limited options, and the company plans to advance its development program for this therapy.
