What happened, with direct paths to the underlying reporting
Imunon reports early MRD and ctDNA improvements with IMNN-001 in newly diagnosed advanced ovarian cancer, led by MD Anderson. In nine-patient arms, MRD-positive rates fell to 44% from 67%, ctDNA clearance rose to 87.5% vs 62.5%, and all IMNN-001 patients had no evidence of disease after frontline therapy (vs 56% control).
