First Patient Dosed in Ph 1/2 Study of BDC-3042 in Patients with Advanced Cancers
“We are excited to have dosed the first patient in this first-in-human clinical trial, which will evaluate the safety, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and anti-tumor activity of BDC-3042 in a diverse set of advanced cancers,” said Edith A. Perez, M.D., Chief Medical Officer of Bolt Biotherapeutics. “BDC-3042 is a monoclonal antibody that repolarizes tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs) to attack tumor cells and is the first-in-class Dectin-2 agonist. As Dectin-2 gene expression is elevated in TAMs across a broad range of solid tumor types, we see potential for this novel immunotherapy to be used for a wide range of cancers. We are enthusiastic to advance our second innovative immunotherapy program to the clinic with a focus on providing breakthroughs for patients.”
