First patient dosed with ADG106 + ADG116 combination in Ph 1b/2 trial in solid tumors
“Published research in preclinical models underscores the potential synergistic effect of combining these two potent pathways. We are proud to pioneer exploration of this novel combination, which also demonstrates the translational power of our NEObody™ platform — targeting unique epitopes with novel mechanisms of action by species cross reactive antibodies that can move directly from preclinical syngeneic mouse models to clinical studies,” said Peter Luo, Ph.D., Co-founder, Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of Adagene. “This innovative clinical research will establish the safety and potential complementary effects of ADG106 and ADG116 against two challenging but orthogonal pathways for T-cell priming by anti-CTLA-4 and proliferation by anti-CD137, respectively, building on the promising preclinical and clinical data on safety and preliminary efficacy from our global trials. This pursuit aligns with our goal to transform the development paradigm of antibody-based immunotherapies for global cancer care.”

“The positive outcome of our pre-IND interactions with the FDA reinforces the development pathway for MaaT034 and supports its continued advancement toward the clinic. It also represents an important step in MaaT Pharma’s expansion into immuno-oncology, highlighting the broader potential of our first in class co-cultivated microbiome donor-independent platform across
“Patients with metastatic RAS G12D non-squamous NSCLC, occurring in approximately 4% of cases, represent an underserved population, with no approved targeted treatment options. Initial clinical data evaluating zoldonrasib in combination with standard of care pembrolizumab and platinum doublet chemotherapy in patients with previously untreated metastatic RAS G12D non-squamous NSCLC showed
“At Georgiamune, we are focused on uncovering novel mechanisms that control immune-cell function and translating that biology into first-in-class medicines across autoimmune disease and oncology,” said Samir N. Khleif, M.D., Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Georgiamune. “GIM-621 is one of multiple programs to emerge from that work, alongside three
“Our team’s outstanding execution has enabled us to rapidly advance three programs into the clinic in 2026 and make significant progress in developing next-generation IO, ADC and combination therapies. Together with our partner, Kelun-Biotech, we have achieved seven IND clearances to date, and by mid-2027, we expect more than 2,000
