First Patient Dosed in Ph 1 Trial of ORB-011 in Patients with Advanced Solid Tumors
“The beginning of this clinical study represents a major milestone for Orionis and our A-Kine® protein engineering platform, which combines a range of redesigned immune-modulatory cytokines with targeting modules aimed at cell types of therapeutic relevance. ORB-011 has the potential to harness the therapeutic activity of interferon in a new way,” said Nikolai Kley, Ph.D., Founder, President, and Chief Executive Officer of Orionis Biosciences. “Interferons and other cytokines in our pipeline are powerful immune-activating agents. By localizing their activity to specific target cells, and exploiting communication networks across immune cells, we are evolving immunotherapies with unique translational potential.”
