Exicure announced Phase 1 results for AST-008, an SNA consisting of toll-like receptor 9 (TLR9) agonists designed for immuno-oncology applications.
"Phase 1 results for AST-008 demonstrated our desired highly potent immune system activation without serious adverse events or dose limiting toxicity. We believe this molecule could lead to better combination therapies for patients with cancer and, to that end, we expect to initiate a Phase 1b/2 trial in patients before year end," said Dr. David Giljohann, Chief Executive Officer of Exicure. "These data support the potential of our SNA platform for immuno-oncology and set the stage for ongoing development of the SNA platform into indications well beyond cancer."
