Aura Biosciences Inc. (NASDAQ: AURA), a clinical-stage biotechnology company developing a novel class of virus-like drug conjugate (VDC) therapies for multiple oncology indications, today announced multiple presentations of data evaluating its first VDC, belzupacap sarotalocan (AU-011), for the first-line treatment of patients with early-stage choroidal melanoma (indeterminate lesions and small choroidal melanoma (CM)). The presentations include updated safety results from the Phase 2 trial using suprachoroidal (SC) administration, final safety and efficacy data from the Phase 1b/2 trial using intravitreal (IVT) administration as well as top-line data from the Retrospective Match Case Control study comparing the long-term visual acuity outcomes following treatment with belzupacap sarotalocan versus treatment with plaque brachytherapy, the current standard of care. The results will be presented at the International Society of Ocular Oncology (ISOO) 2022 Bi-Annual Meeting, the largest global ocular oncology meeting, being held June 17-21, 2022, in Leiden, the Netherlands.
