FDA clears IND application to proceed to Ph 1/2 clinical trial for XTX501 in solid tumors
“In the second quarter, we remained focused on disciplined execution across our pipeline as we continued to advance our next generation of masked immuno-oncology therapies toward the clinic. Today, we are excited to announce FDA clearance of our IND for XTX501, a bispecific PD-1 / masked IL-2 that we believe has the potential to become a foundational backbone therapy for solid tumors,” said René Russo, Pharm.D., president and chief executive officer of Xilio. “At the same time, we are advancing IND-enabling studies for our multi-specific, masked T cell engagers targeting CLDN18.2 and PSMA+STEAP1. Together, these programs highlight the potential to leverage our masking technology to unlock the next generation of sophisticated, multi-specific I-O therapies for people living with cancer.”
