TransCode Therapeutics and Quantum Leap Healthcare Collaborative Launch Ph 2a dose-expansion trial with TTX-MC138
“Detecting and treating micrometastatic disease before it becomes visible is one of the biggest unmet challenges in cancer,” said Laura Esserman, M.D., co-founder of Quantum Leap, and Professor of Surgery and Radiology at the University of California, San Francisco. “The PRE-ISPY Trial is uniquely positioned to rapidly evaluate agents like TTX-MC138 that may eradicate minimal residual disease and prevent recurrence in colorectal and eventually other cancer. We are excited to collaborate with TransCode to accelerate this program, with the goal of advancing effective, less toxic precision therapies into Phase 2 and beyond—where the potential to truly cure patients exists.”
