Iomab-B SIERRA trial results accepted for oral presentation at the European Hematology Association 2023 Congress
Stockholm, May 15 , 2023 – Immedica’s partner Actinium Pharmaceuticals, Inc. has announced that an abstract on the Iomab-B SIERRA trial results has been accepted for an oral presentation at the upcoming European Hematology Association 2023 Congress (EHA) which will be held in Frankfurt, Germany, June 8-11, 2023.
The abstract includes data from Actinium's controlled phase 3 study, SIERRA , comparing the efficacy of Iomab-B based conditioning, a first-in-class targeted radiotherapy, versus physician's choice of conventional care in patients ≥55 years of age with relapsed/refractory acute myeloid leukemia (AML). This latest acceptance of the SIERRA trial results at EHA, a major medical conference, is helping spread awareness about the potential of Iomab-B in facilitating allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantations (HSCT) for patients with relapsed/refractory AML.
In April 2022 Immedica entered into a license and supply agreement with Actinium Pharmaceuticals, Inc. for Iomab-B in Europe, the Middle East and North Africa.
Details of the EHA presentation are as follows:
Presentation Title: SIERRA trial results with a targeted radiotherapy, Iomab-B, a myeloablative conditioning with reduced intensity tolerability yields high CR, long term survival in HSCT ineligible active r/r AML
Session Type/Title: Oral / SCT Clinical
Date and Time: June 10, 11:30am – 12:45pm CEST
