Investor Presentation summary
9 Jan, 2026Clinical development and efficacy highlights
Cretostimogene, an investigational oncolytic immunotherapy, demonstrated a 75.5% overall complete response (CR) rate in high-risk BCG-unresponsive NMIBC, with 46.4% CR at 12 months and 41.8% at 24 months, showing best-in-disease durability and safety with no grade 3+ treatment-related adverse events reported.
In high-risk papillary-only BCG-unresponsive NMIBC, cretostimogene achieved 95.7% high-grade event-free survival (HG-EFS) at 3 months, 84.6% at 6 months, and 80.4% at 9 months, with no treatment-related progression or cystectomy.
For high-risk BCG-naïve NMIBC, an 88% CR rate was observed, with no grade ≥3 adverse events or treatment-related discontinuations.
Cretostimogene is being evaluated in multiple ongoing and planned Phase 2 and 3 trials across high-risk and intermediate-risk NMIBC, including monotherapy and combination regimens.
Optimized administration protocol reduces procedure time by ~25%, streamlining integration into clinical workflows and supporting high-volume treatment centers.
Market opportunity and commercial readiness
NMIBC represents about 75% of newly diagnosed bladder cancer cases, with a multi-billion dollar market opportunity and over 150,000 addressable patients in the U.S.
Cretostimogene programs target more than 70% of the NMIBC market potential, spanning BCG-unresponsive, BCG-exposed, BCG-naïve, and intermediate-risk populations.
Annualized wholesale acquisition cost (WAC) of approved therapies in high-risk NMIBC ranges from $200,000 to $690,000.
Commercial strategy focuses on a capital-efficient, high-touch approach, targeting a concentrated prescriber network where top decile urology centers account for ~10% of national volume.
Pre-launch activities include field force deployment, site and payor engagement, and integration into established urology practice workflows.
Mechanism of action and patient journey
Cretostimogene's dual mechanism involves selective tumor cell killing and stimulation of a durable anti-tumor immune response.
Administered intravesically, similar to standard BCG therapy, allowing seamless adoption by urology practices without additional training.
Patient journey for NMIBC includes regular surveillance, TURBT, and intravesical therapies, with cretostimogene positioned as a bladder-sparing alternative.
