Development plans of NY-500, an AI-Optimized PD-1 x VEGF Bifunctional Antibody, announced in multiple oncology indications
“We are excited to add a novel, AI-optimized PD-1 x VEGF therapeutic candidate to our pipeline of best-in-class bifunctional antibodies,” commented NAYA Biosciences President Dr. Daniel Teper. “NAYA’s bifunctional format has demonstrated the ability for synergistic dual-targeting activity, resulting in the potential to unlock clinical response in solid tumors. NY-500, our PD-1 x VEGF antibody, will target hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and other solid tumors with high unmet medical needs. Recent clinical data with ivonescimab, the most advanced PD-1 x VEGF antibody, has shown superiority in non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) compared to Keytruda®, the leading first-line immunotherapy standard-of-care in multiple solid tumors, paving the way for a new generation of PD-(L)1 therapeutic candidates.”
