We are pleased to announce our upcoming poster at the American Association for Cancer Research (AACR) Annual Meeting 2026 which will disclose initial data from the Phase 1b FORTRESS study of NG-350A in patients with mismatch repair-proficient (pMMR) locally advanced rectal cancer (LARC).

💙 March 6 is Dress in Blue Day for Colorectal Cancer Awareness. At Akamis Bio, our mission is to transform the standard of care for people living with colorectal cancer – starting with our therapeutic candidate for patients with mismatch repair proficient (pMMR) locally advanced rectal cancer (LARC), which accounts for ~95% of all LARC cases. There’s an urgent need for new LARC treatment options that eliminate tumors and reduce the need for surgery so patients can preserve colorectal organ function and have an improved quality of life. On March 6, we’ll be wearing blue to honor the patients and families impacted by rectal cancer, reaffirm our commitment to advancing the field, and help address a disease that continues to rise at an alarming rate – particularly among individuals under 50. Learn more about the unmet need in LARC here: akamisbio.com/patient-commun… #DressInBlueDay #ColorectalCancerAwareness #RectalCancer #Fortressstudy

The professed altruistic aspect of your desire to get your grasping hands on nos 7 and 11, has convinced nobody 😝

Dear World, if you have or know the location of numbers 7 and 11 please let me know as otherwise I now have in my possession a nearly complete archive of Fort, the journal of fortification and military architecture of the Fortress Study Group @FortressStudy (which any fort loving person should join). Aside from my own reading pleasure these are intended for the use of War Studies students, many of whom I hope to convert into military architecture enthusiasts.

We’re pleased to stand with @FightCRC in their commitment to provide patients, families, and caregivers with clear, accessible information about colorectal cancer research and clinical study options. Fight CRC's latest newsletter highlights why bringing science to everyone and improving access to clinical studies is so important — and we’re grateful that our FORTRESS study for patients with mismatch repair-proficient (pMMR) locally advanced rectal cancer (LARC) is part of that conversation. The Phase 1b FORTRESS clinical study is designed to assess whether our investigational oncolytic immunotherapy, NG-350A, combined with chemoradiotherapy, can improve treatment responses for patients with pMMR LARC compared with expected outcomes from chemoradiotherapy alone. Our overarching mission with FORTRESS is to help patients achieve better outcomes and quality of life, while potentially avoiding surgical interventions. If you or someone you know would like to learn more, read the Fight CRC blog and listen to their podcast episode discussing NG-350A and the FORTRESS study here: fightcolorectalcancer.org/bl… For additional information about FORTRESS study eligibility and participation, please visit fortressstudy.org/ We’re deeply grateful to the CRC patient community for their strength, partnership, and commitment to advancing important new treatment options through participation in clinical studies. #ColorectalCancer #ClinicalTrials #FORTRESSStudy #FightCRC

We share the Colorectal Cancer Alliance’s belief that understanding all treatment options, including clinical trials, empowers patients facing colorectal cancer to make the most informed decisions possible. At Akamis Bio, we’re advancing that mission through the Ph1b FORTRESS clinical trial, which is designed to assess whether our investigational oncolytic immunotherapy, NG-350A, in combination with chemoradiotherapy can improve treatment responses for patients with mismatch repair-proficient (pMMR) locally advanced rectal cancer (LARC) relative to expected response levels with chemoradiotherapy alone. This work represents more than science. It represents hope. Our aim is to help patients achieve better outcomes and quality of life, while potentially avoiding surgical interventions. We’re grateful to every patient, clinician, and partner contributing to this effort. Together, we’re working to redefine what’s possible in cancer treatment.

Understanding all treatment options, including clinical trials, empowers patients to make informed choices, opening the door to hope, innovation, and more time with the people they love. Kate’s mom, Lynn Shin, was diagnosed with Stage IV terminal rectal cancer, but clinical trials prolonged her life, giving her more than 4 years beyond her recurrence. That extra time meant 4 more years with her family and 4 more years of memories. Lynn was even able to experience Kate graduate from college and support her move from Maryland to Florida for grad school. 💙 Thanks to our partner, @AkamisBio, for supporting our Cancer Care program.

Today I was at the wonderful @EnglishHeritage Fort Brockhurst speaking at @FortressStudy conference. I spoke about the future plans for our Gosport forts, and how they can continue to play a significant role in our community and local prosperity far into the future.

I’m a proud member of the @FortressStudy group though not yet of the Pillbox subset. It’s an amazing organisation full of quite extraordinary experts.

good review for 'Spectre of Invasion' from The Fortress Study group. ‘This is a very accessible and fully illustrated book... with some interesting observations on the desired and actual role of coastal defence fortresses during WWI.’ @FortressStudy @SeaforthPub @penswordbooks

Spent the afternoon exploring this wonderful bastioned ECW fort at St Jude's in the north of the IOM with old SK friends. Sadlly, the ramparts were much more overgrown than was the case when the photo was taken, but they were still pretty impressive. images.app.goo.gl/2J8fdPbuqA…
