First Patient Dosed in Ph 1 Clinical Trial of AGX101
“TM4SF1 is an emerging cancer target with exciting features: expression in two compartments of the tumor, tumor cells and the tumor vasculature; broad expression in malignant cancers, but limited expression in normal tissue; and a novel internalization pathway enabling delivery of chemotherapeutic payloads directly to the nucleus of cells in the tumor environment,” said Paul Jaminet, co-founder and CEO of Angiex. “Building upon 20 years of biological research and through 12 years of drug development, Angiex has tailored AGX101 design to TM4SF1 biology. Preclinical studies have supported AGX101’s ability to attack cancers by multiple mechanisms of action, and demonstrated a broad therapeutic margin in animals. We believe AGX101 has potential to help clinical cancer patients, especially in indications with high unmet need. We are excited to announce that the first patient has been dosed in this first-in-human study of our novel TM4SF1 ADC, AGX101.”
