This study aims to investigate the combination of BNT324, a B7-H3 antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) with BNT327, a programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) bispecific antibody, in participants with advanced/metastatic or relapsed/progressive small cell lung cancer (SCLC) and non small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).
Phase 1 trials primarily test safety and dosing in a small number of participants (typically 20–100). Results do not yet speak to efficacy. FDA approval is typically many years away from this stage.
Phase 2 trials begin testing efficacy in a larger patient group (100–300). This is often where biotech binary events occur — positive Phase 2 data can significantly advance a company's pipeline narrative, while failures can be terminal for a program.
Currently recruiting: the trial is enrolling patients. A data readout is not expected until after enrollment closes and the follow-up period is complete.
BioNTech SE (BNTX) is the sponsoring company for this trial. BiotechSign currently grades this company F (20/100) based on composite catalyst signals across its full pipeline. This trial is one data point in that overall catalyst picture.
