PHILADELPHIA, Dec. 08, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Context Therapeutics Inc. (“Context” or the “Company”) (Nasdaq: CNTX), a women’s oncology company developing novel treatments for breast and gynecologic cancers, announced preliminary Phase 2 data from the ongoing SMILE trial of onapristone extended release (ONA-XR), the company’s novel, first-in-class, potent, orally administered progesterone receptor (PR) antagonist, in metastatic breast cancer.
Being conducted in collaboration with the Wisconsin Oncology Network, the Phase 2 SMILE trial is evaluating ONA-XR in combination with fulvestrant in patients with ER+, HER2- advanced or metastatic breast cancer who progressed on prior CDK4/6 inhibitor therapy. Preliminary Phase 2 findings highlight a 4-month progression free survival (PFS) rate of 44%, and favorable safety and tolerability. The data were presented at the 2022 San Antonio Breast Cancer Symposium® (SABCS®).
