Oncolytics Biotech (NASDAQ: ONCY) presented new data from its Phase I/II GOBLET clinical trial at the 2025 ASCO Annual Meeting, demonstrating the effectiveness of its immunotherapy drug pelareorep in treating pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). The study revealed pelareorep's mechanism of action, showing how it stimulates multiple immune responses and converts immunologically cold tumors into active ones.
Key findings include pelareorep's ability to expand reovirus-specific T cells and increase cytokines and chemokines that enable anti-tumor immune responses. The GOBLET Cohort 1 trial, which evaluated pelareorep in combination with nab-paclitaxel, gemcitabine, and atezolizumab, demonstrated impressive results with a 62% overall response rate, 85% disease control rate, and 45% 12-month survival rate in first-line metastatic PDAC patients.
Oncolytics Biotech (NASDAQ: ONCY) reported its Q1 2025 financial results and clinical progress. The company's lead drug pelareorep showed promising results across multiple cancer types. Key highlights include a 33% objective response rate in anal carcinoma patients and positive safety data in pancreatic cancer trials. The company reported $15.3 million in cash and equivalents, with a net loss of $6.7 million ($0.08 per share) compared to $6.9 million ($0.09 per share) in Q1 2024.

Oncolytics Biotech (NASDAQ: ONCY) has achieved significant progress in its cancer immunotherapy development program in 2025. The company received regulatory clearance from Germany's Paul-Ehrlich-Institute to advance enrollment in its pancreatic cancer study (GOBLET Cohort 5), which will include 30 patients testing pelareorep with modified FOLFIRINOX with and without atezolizumab.
At the 2025 ASCO Gastrointestinal Cancers Symposium, the company presented promising clinical data for pelareorep in both anal and pancreatic cancers. Anal cancer patients showed stronger responses to pelareorep plus atezolizumab compared to historical checkpoint inhibitor data. In pancreatic cancer, pelareorep demonstrated favorable safety when combined with modified FOLFIRINOX.
The company anticipates additional data readouts from ongoing gastrointestinal cancer trials and regulatory interactions that could accelerate future trials, particularly in breast cancer and gastrointestinal cancers.
