COSA MESA, Calif., Dec. 11, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — AiViva Biopharma Inc., a clinical-stage biotechnology company, announced completion of their first trial administering AIV001 (axitinib) to patients diagnosed with basal cell carcinoma (BCC) tumors. AIV001 is AiVivas novel intradermally administered product designed for local, prolonged treatment effect for dermatological conditions.

The phase 1/2 multicenter, open-label clinical trial evaluated AIV001 in patients with superficial, nodular or mixed BCC tumors. The study enrolled a total of 26 subjects who were studied in four ascending dose cohorts. Subjects receive up to three treatments during the course of the study and monitored for safety, skin tolerability, and efficacy measured by clinical and histological clearance of malignant basal cells in the lesions. We are excited to have completed this safety study that is demonstrating excellent skin tolerability and a dose response. This promising data allows AiViva multiple options to develop it further, including but not limited to seeking a strategic partner for this compound, said Diane Tang-Liu, PhD, President and CEO of AiViva.

The most common cancer worldwide is nonmelanoma skin cancer with the BCC subtype being the most prevalent that occurs in the skin. Millions of new cases are diagnosed every year in the U.S. alone due to the increase in sun exposure and aging population. Current treatment often requires surgery that can lead to scarring. It is exciting and important to have AiViva Biopharma develop a drug, with a new mechanism of action, that has the potential to treat BCC that avoids surgery, said Brian Berman, MD, PhD, Professor Emeritus of Derma-tology and Dermatologic Surgery at The University of Miami Miller School of Medicine.
