-Injection in murine tumors shows the compound is well tolerated
-Studies support ongoing clinical trial of PH-762 as a neoadjuvant therapy for treatment of cSCC, melanoma, or Merkel cell carcinoma
Preclinical studies demonstrate:
- PH-762 is rapidly taken up by cells and robustly silences PD-1 mRNA and protein in lymphocytes within the tumor microenvironment (TME)
- Intratumoral injection of murine PH-762 (mPH-762) significantly inhibits tumor growth in murine tumor models and is well tolerated
- mPH-762-mediated silencing of PH-762 within the TME may generate memory-specific T cells, promoting IFN-γ release in the TME
- Studies in non-human primates demonstrate that PH-762 is well-tolerated and does not induce release of cytokines associated with cytokine release syndrome (CRS)
- These finding support the ongoing clinical trial of PH-762’s safety and efficacy as a neoadjuvant therapy for treatment of cSCC, melanoma, or Merkel cell carcinoma
