About CEL-SCI Corporation
CEL-SCI believes that boosting a patient’s immune system while
it is still intact should provide the greatest possible impact on
survival. Therefore, in the Phase 3 study CEL-SCI treated patients
who are newly diagnosed with advanced primary squamous cell
carcinoma of the head and neck with the investigational product
Multikine* first, BEFORE they received surgery, radiation and/or
chemotherapy. This approach is unique. Most other cancer
immunotherapies are administered only after conventional therapies
have been tried and/or failed. Multikine (Leukocyte Interleukin,
Injection), has received Orphan Drug designation from the FDA for
neoadjuvant therapy in patients with squamous cell carcinoma
(cancer) of the head and neck.
CEL-SCI believes that this Phase 3 study is the largest Phase 3
study in the world for the treatment of head and neck cancer. Per
the study’s protocol, newly diagnosed patients with advanced
primary squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck were treated
with the Multikine treatment regimen first - for 3 weeks prior to
receiving the Standard of Care (SOC), which involves surgery,
radiation or concurrent radiochemotherapy. Multikine is designed to
help the immune system “see” the tumor at a time when the immune
system is still relatively intact and thereby thought to better be
able to mount an attack on the tumor. The aim of treatment with
Multikine is to boost the body’s immune system prior to SOC to
attack the cancer. The Phase 3 study is fully enrolled with 928
patients and the last patient was treated in September 2016. To
prove an overall survival benefit, the study requires CEL-SCI to
wait until 298 events have occurred among the two main comparator
groups. This study milestone occurred in late April 2020. The study
is currently in the database lock and analysis phase.
The Company’s LEAPS technology is being developed for rheumatoid
arthritis and as a potential treatment of COVID-19 in hospitalized
and at-high-risk patients. The Company has operations in Vienna,
Virginia, and near/in Baltimore, Maryland.
