Infinity Pharmaceuticals Inc. (INFI:NASDAQ) will finalize the design of its impending MARIO-4 clinical trial after receiving feedback about MARIO-3 during the end-of-Phase 2 meetings with drug regulators, reported H.C. Wainwright & Co. analyst Michael King.
What is certain about MARIO-4 at this point, however, is its endpoints will be progression-free survival and overall survival. Also, the study will be randomized and double blind.
As for results so far from MARIO-3, also a trial of eganelisib in frontline metastatic triple-negative breast cancer, they have been encouraging, King wrote. Eganelisib's performance is "largely predictive of a reliable efficacy signal and manageable safety profile for the duration of the study."
King updated H.C. Wainwright's model of Infinity to reflect the expected start this year of MARIO-4.
"We have pushed the anticipated first approval of eganelisib to 2027 from 2026," King wrote. "Our model assumes U.S. launch for second-line metastatic triple-negative breast cancer and second-line urothelial cancer in 2028 and 2029, respectively."
