OS Therapies’ OST-HER2 Immunotherapy for Osteosarcoma Featured in Upcoming Movie Shelter Me: The Cancer Pioneers

Documentary focusing on canine comparative oncology will premiere at the Los Angeles AMC Century City on April 3rd

NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--OS Therapies (NYSE-A: OSTX) (“OS Therapies” or “the Company”), a clinical-stage immunotherapy and Antibody Drug Conjugate (ADC) biopharmaceutical company, today announced that OST-HER2 is featured in the upcoming movie Shelter Me: The Cancer Pioneers. The movie offers a look into canine comparative oncology, a field that compares treatment of cancers in dogs to those in people, and covers developing treatments for rare forms of cancer. OST-HER2 is an immunotherapy for osteosarcoma using a HER2 bioengineered form of the bacteria Listeria monocytogenes to trigger a strong immune response against cancer cells expressing HER2. The movie will premiere on April 3, 2025 at AMC Century City in Los Angeles and will be available to stream through the PBS app and on PBS.org starting in May.

“Our team is dedicated to advancing a treatment for osteosarcoma and are proud to see our immunotherapy in Shelter Me: The Cancer Pioneers,” stated OS Therapies’ CEO Paul Romness. “Comparative oncology is an important area of research for us because of the striking genetic homology of over 96% between human and canine osteosarcoma.” OST-HER2 is an investigational drug and is not currently approved to treat osteosarcoma or any other disease.

Shelter Me: The Cancer Pioneers also features leading scientists at the National Cancer Institute / National Institutes of Health, the University of Pennsylvania, the University of Illinois, the University of Wisconsin, and Colorado State University. It is part of an Emmy Award-winning PBS series, Shelter Me, that celebrates the life-changing relationships between people and animals.

A trailer of the movie can be viewed here.
