Oncolytic Virus Research Collaboration: Memgen Inc., UMichigan, and ALK Positive, Inc.

The ALK Positive NSCLC Research Acceleration Committee (RAC) systematically reaches out to selected biotech companies with NSCLC treatments in development and/or trial. In February of 2022, RAC member Ray Hall (father to patient Summer Farmen) wrote a letter to the CEO of Memgen Inc., introducing us and asking for a get-acquainted Zoom meeting, which occurred shortly thereafter. CEO Greg Brown, MD, MBA, and Chief Scientific Officer Mark Cantwell, PhD let us know that they were initiating a clinical trial at Duke and Moffit Cancer Centers for their oncolytic virus drug MEM-288 for patients with solid tumors
