Phase 2 Clinical Trial Progress Update
CRISM Therapeutics Corporation (AIM: CRTX), a UK clinical-stage drug delivery
company focused on the localised and sustained delivery of chemotherapy drugs,
provides a progress update on its Phase 2 clinical trial of
irinotecan-ChemoSeed in glioblastoma.
The Company confirms that its US-based contract development and manufacturing
organisation, ProMed Pharma LLC, has successfully manufactured the first
clinical batch of ChemoSeed in accordance with current Good Manufacturing
Practice standards. The batch will now undergo sterilisation and release
testing, making it ready for use in the Phase 2 trial.
The Company also continues to work closely with its contract research
organisation, Aixial, and the first clinical trial site, to complete the
remaining site activation steps so as to commence patient dosing. Although
progress toward trial commencement is moving at pace, the exact timing of
first patient dosing is difficult to anticipate. As such, the Company is
extending guidance on the timing of first patient dosing to H1 2026. The
Company remains focused on initiating the trial shortly and will provide
further updates on the commencement of the trial as soon as possible.

About CRISM Therapeutics Corporation
CRISM Therapeutics Corporation has developed an innovative drug delivery
technology to improve the clinical performance of cancer treatments for solid
tumours through the local delivery of chemotherapy drugs.
ChemoSeed, CRISM's lead product, can be implanted directly into the tumour or
the resection margin following the removal of a tumour. This directs that
therapeutic concentrations of chemotherapy drugs reach the deep-seated tumour
tissue or cover the entire resection margin. In the case of treating
glioblastoma, ChemoSeeds can be implanted during surgery thereby bypassing the
blood brain barrier, which prevents other treatments from being able to reach
the tumour and be effective.
