Vergent Bioscience and its wholly owned subsidiary Vergent Bioscience Australia Pty Ltd, announced that new clinical data from a Phase 2 study of the company’s investigational agent VGT-309 will be presented at the 2023 World Conference on Lung Cancer (#WCLC23) hosted by the International Association for the Study of Lung Cancer (IASLC), taking place September 9-12, 2023, in Singapore.
Early Phase 1 and 2 clinical trials evaluating VGT-309 in lung cancer yielded compelling safety and efficacy data that support the agent’s ability to help surgeons see difficult-to-find or previously undetected tumors in real-time, ensuring all tumor tissue is removed during minimally invasive (MIS) and robotic-assisted surgical procedures.
Following are details about the VGT-309 presentation at the 2023 WCLC:
