OncBioMune and the Clinical Trial Investigators Have Agreed Upon the Protocol for Their Phase 2 Trial of Novel Vaccine for Early Stage Prostate Cancer


BATON ROUGE, LA--(Marketwired - December 08, 2016) - OncBioMune Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (OTCQB: OBMP) ("OncBioMune"), a clinical stage biopharmaceutical company engaged in the development of novel cancer products and a proprietary vaccine technology, is pleased to announce that the protocol for the planned Phase 2 trial of ProscaVax, the Company's novel therapeutic cancer vaccine, has been agreed upon by the Principal Investigator and will soon be submitted to the FDA for review.

The trial, slated to be hosted at a preeminent cancer research hospital in the Northeast United States and its partners, will evaluate ProscaVax in patients at disease presentation that have not undergone any other therapy. Per the planned protocol, prostate cancer patients will receive ProscaVax during active surveillance and results will be compared to prostate cancer patients not receiving ProscaVax during active surveillance.

Early stage prostate cancer patients have very few options, with many opting for a radical prostatectomy, the removal of the prostate gland and some of the surrounding tissue, radiation, brachytherapy or a combination of treatments. Unfortunately, these therapies are known to have significant side effects, including erectile dysfunction and urinary incontinence, amongst other things. There are currently no drugs approved by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration for treating prostate cancer at disease presentation.

Given that prostate cancer is often a disease with slow progression, many men decide to track the advance of their disease with their physician without medical intervention, which is termed "active surveillance." In the upcoming Phase 2 trial, the safety and efficacy will be evaluated in patients in the active surveillance category. OncBioMune is unaware of any other pharmaceutical company developing a therapeutic vaccine for this patient population.

In a Phase 1 study funded in part by the U.S. Navy Cancer Vaccine Program, ProscaVax was evaluated for safety and efficacy as a novel treatment for PSA (prostate specific antigen) recurrent prostate cancer in hormone-naïve and hormone-independent patients. The data corroborated earlier research that showed ProscaVax to be extremely safe and deliver a measurable response in reducing PSA and increasing the immune response to PSA.

"To me, it is a tragedy that some 181,000 men diagnosed with prostate cancer this year are left staring at a blank slate of effective low morbidity options. We intend to be a part of the solution for them," commented Dr. Jonathan Head, Chief Executive Officer at OncBioMune. "We already know that ProscaVax has shown clinical responses in late stage patients. I greatly look forward to commencing this new trial to learn even more about the value of ProscaVax by evaluating it in one of the greatest areas of unmet medical need in oncology, early stage prostate cancer patients."
