A dynamic, hopeful image depicting immune cells (T-lymphocytes and Natural Killer cells) invigorated by IMNN-001, actively targeting and shrinking ovarian cancer cells, with a subtle representation of DNA strands symbolizing the therapy's mechanism.
  • Unprecedented Survival: IMUNON's IMNN-001 shows "unprecedented" overall survival in Phase 2 for advanced ovarian cancer.
  • Broad Efficacy: Consistent, life-extending benefits observed across diverse and hard-to-treat patient groups, including BRCA mutation carriers.
  • Hope on the Horizon: Groundbreaking results propel IMNN-001 into pivotal Phase 3 trials, heralding a potential new era for patients.

The oncology world is abuzz with a seismic announcement from ASCO 2025! IMUNON has unveiled stunning data for IMNN-001, its pioneering DNA-based immunotherapy, demonstrating an unprecedented surge in overall survival for women locked in a desperate battle with advanced ovarian cancer. This isn't just incremental progress; it's a beacon of profound hope, potentially rewriting the bleak narrative for thousands.

The full, electrifying results from the Phase 2 OVATION 2 study, simultaneously presented at ASCO and published in the prestigious Gynecologic Oncology, paint a vivid picture of triumph6, 7. IMNN-001, when combined with standard chemotherapy, unleashed a powerful anti-cancer immune response, leading to clinically meaningful improvements in overall survival (OS) – a staggering median increase of 13 months – and progression-free survival (PFS). When combined with PARP inhibitors, the PFS increase was nearly 12 months compared to standard care alone6.

Critically, this extraordinary survival benefit isn't confined to a narrow subset of patients. IMNN-001 demonstrated its remarkable power across multiple challenging subgroups, including women HRP and HRD positive, and those with BRCA1 and BRCA2 mutations – populations often facing the direst prognoses7. The TheraPlas® technology behind IMNN-001 masterfully delivers an IL-12 DNA plasmid, compelling the body to produce this potent cytokine locally, thereby activating a robust T-lymphocyte and natural killer cell onslaught against the cancer2, 5, 6.

With a favorable safety profile and the pivotal Phase 3 OVATION 3 trial now initiated, IMUNON is forging a new path, offering a tangible lifeline to women who desperately need transformative treatment options8. The fight against ovarian cancer has a formidable new champion. For more details, visit IMUNON’s website at www.imunon.com.
