Item 8.01. Other Events.

On December 14, 2015, BIND Therapeutics, Inc. (the “Company”) announced that the squamous histology non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) cohort of the phase 2 iNSITE 1 trial with BIND-014 will advance to the second stage and complete enrollment to 40 patients, based on efficacy data from a planned interim analysis as well as updated data from a previous clinical trial in the broad NSCLC population, the BIND-014-005 trial. Preliminary iNSITE 1 data from 20 patients in the Intent-To-Treat (ITT) population and 11 patients from the Per-Protocol subset demonstrated a 6-week disease control rate (DCR) of 25% (95% CI (confidence interval), 9% to 49%) and 45.5% (95% CI, 17% to 77%) respectively, which clears the pre-specified gating criteria to continue enrollment. The final median overall survival (OS) in nine patients with squamous histology from the BIND-014-005 trial was 11.1 months, confirming the interim median OS reported previously, with a 1-year survival rate of 44 percent.

The Company also announced that the KRAS mutant NSCLC arm will not advance to the second stage. Data from 23 patients in the ITT population and 14 patients from the Per-Protocol subset demonstrated a 6-week DCR of 17.4% and 28.6% and a 4% and 7% overall response rate (ORR) respectively, which did not meet the Company’s pre-specified gating criteria to continue enrolling patients. Patients currently enrolled in this cohort will continue to be followed for safety and efficacy.
