Event Summary

CG Oncology announced the publication of results from the pivotal Phase 3 BOND-003 Cohort C trial evaluating cretostimogene grenadenorepvec monotherapy in patients with high-risk, BCG-unresponsive non-muscle invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC) with carcinoma in situ in The Lancet. The trial met its primary endpoint with statistical significance, showing robust complete response rates, durable responses (median duration 27.9 months), high bladder preservation rates (89% at 12 months, 81% at 24 months), low progression to muscle-invasive disease (3.4%), and a favorable safety profile with no Grade 3 or higher treatment-related adverse events. The results suggest cretostimogene could become a foundational bladder-sparing therapy for NMIBC.
