We are delighted to announce the appointment of Mike Powell and Chris Bowden to our board of directors. Both individuals are esteemed leaders in the biopharma industry, and their extensive expertise will be instrumental as we progress ficerafusp alfa (BCA101) into its late-stage development for recurrent/metastatic head and neck squamous cell carcinoma, as well as other indications.

On July 27, we honor World Head and Neck Cancer Day to raise awareness and highlight the importance of knowing about these #cancers, along with effective care and control. Head and Neck Cancer is associated with a number of risk factors, many of which can be avoided and early detection is key to successful treatment. Be aware of the signs and symptoms, and if in doubt, get checked out! #WHNCD2024

Today, we are at the 3rd Hawaii Summit on Thoracic Malignancies, and excited to share updated interim data from our ongoing, open-label Phase 1/1b dose expansion study of ficerafusp alfa (BCA101) in 1L HPV-negative recurrent/metastatic head and neck squamous cell carcinoma. #HNSCC is one of the most common cancers globally with a rising incidence, and this approach may become a new chemotherapy-free standard of care treatment for patients in need.

The two subtypes of Head and Neck Cancer (HNC) are distinctly associated with smoking/drinking and/or human papillomavirus (HPV) infection, and are often preventable. If diagnosed early, chances for survival can more than double. Screenings typically take less than 10 minutes. Get screened for HPV and HNC this #HeadandNeckCancerAwarenessMonth!

The highest burden of head and neck cancer calls not only on patients, but also caregivers. At Bicara, our commitment to patients and their caregivers is unwavering. We believe our research for BCA101 has the potential to improve and extend the lives of people with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma and other solid tumor #cancer types.
