Antengene Announces Exclusive License Agreement with K2 Therapeutics for ATG-106 and Option for Undisclosed Bispecific TCE
“We are very pleased to expand our partnerships with our TCE pipeline with this important collaboration around our AnTenGager® platform,” said Dr. Jay Mei, Founder, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Antengene. “We believe ATG-106, our CDH6 x CD3 bispecific TCE reflects the differentiated design of AnTenGager® TCEs and their potential in solid tumors. AnTenGager® TCEs are designed to address key challenges that have historically limited first-generation TCEs in solid tumors, particularly with respect to safety and tolerability. By combining steric hindrance-based masking with our proprietary fast on/off CD3 binder, AnTenGager® TCEs are designed to activate T cells in a disease-associated antigen-gated manner, with the potential to reduce cytokine release syndrome and T cell exhaustion while maintaining potent anti-tumor activity.”
