AMPLIFY-7P missed its primary endpoint; a post-hoc R0 subgroup signal now carries the entire PDAC vaccine bet, with $23M covering roughly one more quarter

Updated 33d ago

Elicio is a clinical-stage biotech developing a vaccine for pancreatic cancer that is not yet approved, though a late-stage trial recently missed its primary effectiveness target in the overall patient group and now relies on a subset analysis to advance.

Elicio built a mKRAS-targeting amphiphile vaccine for one of oncology's hardest diseases, pancreatic cancer, where most patients relapse within a year of surgery. AMPLIFY-7P missed its ITT primary endpoint, and the entire remaining case rests on whether regulators and investors accept a post-hoc R0 subgroup result (HR 0.65, p=0.048) as the basis for a Phase 3 that the company cannot fund beyond Q1 2027. With $23M on hand and $10.4M quarterly burn, capital exhaustion arrives before any Phase 3 efficacy data.

Current Thesis Drivers

  • 3/3 complete responses with ELI-002 7P plus nivolumab in metastatic PDAC
  • Post-hoc R0 subgroup: HR 0.65, p=0.048 (n=121) — unconfirmed by FDA
  • AMPLIFY-7P missed pre-specified ITT primary DFS endpoint
  • $23M cash, $10.4M/qtr burn — runway Q1 2027

What could change the thesis?

  • Phase 3 financing outcome: funding secured extends pivot, failure ends program
  • Metastatic Phase 1 readout: efficacy signal reopens bull case, null miss closes it
  • FDA End-of-Phase 2 feedback: R0 subgroup accepted enables Phase 3, rejected forecloses it
