First Patient Dosed in Ph 1 Study of CTX-8371 in Patients with Solid Tumors
“Dosing the first patient in the CTX-8371 Phase 1 represents the advancement of our third program into the clinic, which is an important milestone for the company,” said Vered Bisker-Leib, PhD, Chief Executive Officer. “We recently published preclinical data in the peer-reviewed journal, OncoImmunology, supporting the novel mechanism of action of CTX-8371: proteolytic cleavage and subsequent loss of cell surface PD-1. We believe this mechanism drives the enhanced anti-tumor activity of CTX-8371 in preclinical models when compared to approved anti-PD-1 and PD-L1 therapies and warrants its evaluation in patients.”
