SAN DIEGO, Feb. 13, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- DelMar Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (Nasdaq: DMPI) ("DelMar" or the "Company"), a biopharmaceutical company focused on the development of new solid tumor cancer therapies, announced its financial results for the three and six months ended December 31, 2019 and provided a corporate update.

"We are pleased with the pace of progress of both trials, which in some cases have enrolled patients faster than our previous forecasts. We are seeing rapid progress with encouraging survival benefits in both our Phase 2 trials per recent announcements and publications, and look forward to sharing our upcoming update of clinical data at the American Association for Cancer Research Annual Meeting being held in San Diego April 24 to 29," commented Saiid Zarrabian, DelMar's President and Chief Executive Officer.

  • November 2019 – Provided positive interim clinical data and held Key Opinion Leader GBM summit at the Society for Neuro-Oncology annual meeting.  The updated clinical data in two poster sessions included the following:

ABOUT DELMAR PHARMACEUTICALS, INC.

Located in San Diego, California, DelMar is focused on the development and commercialization of new therapies for cancer patients who have limited or no treatment options.  By focusing on understanding tumor biology and mechanisms of treatment resistance, the Company identifies biomarkers to personalize new therapies in indications where patients are failing, or are unable to tolerate, standard-of-care treatments.

The Company's current pipeline is based around VAL-083, a "first-in-class", small-molecule chemotherapeutic with a novel mechanism of action that has demonstrated clinical activity against a range of cancers, including central nervous system, ovarian and other solid tumors (e.g. NSCLC, bladder cancer, head & neck) in U.S. clinical trials sponsored by the National Cancer Institute (NCI). Based on DelMar's internal research programs and these prior NCI-sponsored clinical studies, the Company is conducting clinical trials to support the development and commercialization of VAL-083 to solve significant unmet medical needs.

VAL-083 is being studied in two collaborator-supported, biomarker-driven Phase 2 clinical trials for MGMT-unmethylated GBM. Overcoming MGMT-mediated resistance represents a significant unmet medical need in the treatment of GBM. In addition, DelMar has announced the allowance of a separate IND for VAL-083 as a potential treatment for platinum-resistant ovarian cancer.

Further information on DelMar's clinical trials can be found on clinicaltrials.gov:  https://www.clinicaltrials.gov/ct2/results?cond=&term=val-083&cntry1=&state1=&recrs
