Anocca AB has submitted its first clinical trial application (CTA) to the EMA for a phase I/II multi-asset umbrella trial, VIDAR-1. The application covers ANOC-001 as the initial product in the VIDAR-1 program targeting mutated KRAS in advanced pancreatic cancer.
Medigene AG has obtained FDA clearance of its IND application for lead program MDG-1015 for the treatment of advanced gastric cancer, ovarian cancer, myxoid/round cell liposarcoma and synovial sarcoma.
Medigene AG has selected its lead candidate for MDG-2021, a T-cell receptor engineered T-cell (TCR-T) therapy targeting KRAS G12D with human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-A*11 being developed in combination with the company’s PD1-41BB costimulatory switch protein (CSP) technology.
α-Fetoprotein (AFP) is a tumor-associated antigen and an ideal target for T-cell receptor T-cell (TCR-T) therapy. While the safety of AFP-targeting TCR-T products has been previously demonstrated in early clinical trials, the efficacy of these cell therapies is still modest, warranting further research.
Medigene AG has selected initial clinical indications for its lead candidate, MDG-1015, specifically gastric cancer, ovarian cancer, myxoid/round cell liposarcoma and synovial sarcoma.
Amphiphile (AMP)-modification of peptide antigens and molecular adjuvants has been previously demonstrated to enhance lymphatic delivery and retention, resulting in potent expansion of cognate endogenous T-cell responses.
Medigene AG has announced a prioritization of its pipeline as it advances its differentiated T-cell receptor engineered T cell (TCR-T) therapies for solid tumors.
Researchers from Tscan Therapeutics Inc. presented preclinical data for TSC-200-A0201, a naturally occurring HPV16 E7-specific T-cell receptor (TCR) T-cell therapy discovered using Tscan’s proprietary Receptorscan platform. It is being developed for the treatment of human papillomavirus 16 (HPV16)-positive solid tumors. The therapeutic TCR in TSC-200-A0201 was introduced into a transposon vector, with the resulting TCR T therapy product being a mixture of cytotoxic and helper T cells, both reprogrammed to recognize HPV16+ HLA-A*02:01+ cells.
Researchers from Medigene AG recently presented the discovery and preclinical evaluation of first-in-class, third-generation T-cell receptor T-cell (TCR-T) therapies, MDG-1015 and MDG-2011.
Medigene AG has selected its lead candidate for MDG-2011, a T-cell receptor engineered T-cell (TCR-T) therapy targeting KRAS G12V with HLA-A*11 and being developed in combination with the company’s PD1-41BB costimulatory switch protein (CSP) technology.
