Immuneering Corp (NASDAQ:IMRX), a biopharmaceutical company focusing on drug development with a market capitalization of $63.34 million, has announced promising interim data from its ongoing Phase 2a clinical trial involving IMM-1-104, a treatment for advanced RAS-mutant solid tumors.
According to InvestingPro analysis, the company maintains strong liquidity with a current ratio of 7.99, though it faces significant cash burn challenges. Today, the company disclosed that the trial, which combines IMM-1-104 with a modified FOLFIRINOX regimen (mFFX) for first-line treatment of pancreatic cancer patients, has shown an interim overall response rate (ORR) of 50%.
As of January 6, 2025, six evaluable patients were part of this Phase 2a arm. Out of these, three patients experienced a partial response, with one case yet to be confirmed, and three patients maintained stable disease.

Furthermore, those with partial responses, alongside one patient with stable disease, are continuing the treatment. The combination of IMM-1-104 with mFFX is reported to be generally well tolerated by the patients.
In addition to the clinical trial updates, Immuneering Corp has successfully raised net proceeds of $13.7 million through its at-the-market equity offering program as of January 2025. The capital infusion is expected to support the company's ongoing research and development activities.
