Positive Initial Phase 1a Dose Escalation Data for Monotherapy CX-904 (EGFRxCD3 PROBODY® T-Cell Engager) Announced
“We are delighted to share these initial results today for CX-904, a highly innovative masked T-cell engager that embodies our vision at CytomX of transforming lives with safer, more effective therapies,” said Sean McCarthy, D.Phil., chief executive officer and chairman of CytomX. “These data build on more than a decade of innovation at CytomX, and, we believe, open broad new possibilities for T-cell engagers across many targets and cancer types. For EGFR specifically, a target that is present on normal epithelial tissues, we are very encouraged to see CX-904 working as designed by eliciting meaningful tumor reductions in a very difficult to treat tumor type and with a favorable overall safety profile. We look forward to continuing to explore the potential of this exciting agent in multiple EGFR positive cancers and to determining longer term strategy with our global development partner, Amgen.”
