SAN DIEGO, CA, USA I November 03, 2023 I Cidara Therapeutics, Inc. (Nasdaq: CDTX), a biotechnology company using its proprietary Cloudbreak® platform to develop drug-Fc conjugate (DFC) immunotherapies designed to save lives and improve the standard of care for patients facing serious diseases, today announced new preclinical data on its drug-Fc conjugate (DFC) candidate, CBO421, at the Society for Immunotherapy of Cancer (SITC)’s 38th Annual Meeting. The conference is taking place November 1-5, 2023, both virtually and in-person in San Diego, CA.
“We look forward to sharing data that demonstrate the potential for CBO421 to potently inhibit tumor growth as both a monotherapy and in combination with PD-1 therapies,” said Jeffrey Stein, Ph.D. president and chief executive officer of Cidara. “CD73 plays a significant role in contributing to immune evasion in solid tumors. CBO421, our CD73-targeting DFC, combines the strengths of small molecule inhibitors and monoclonal antibodies against CD73 and demonstrates the potential for best-in-class activity to fully exploit the CD73 target to inhibit immune evasion by cancer cells in-vivo. Based on these data, we’re excited to advance this candidate into clinical trials for the treatment of solid tumors.”
Presentation details are summarized below:
Title: Discovery of CBO421, a first-in-class drug Fc-conjugate (DFC), targeting CD73 in cancer
Presenter: Simon Döhrmann, Ph.D., Cidara Therapeutics
Session Location: Ground Level Exhibit Halls A and B1
Date and Time: Friday, November 3, 2023, 12:00-1:30 PDT
About Cidara Therapeutics
Cidara Therapeutics is using its proprietary Cloudbreak® platform to develop novel drug-Fc conjugates (DFCs). These targeted immunotherapies offer the unique opportunity to create “single molecule cocktails” comprised of targeted small molecules and peptides coupled to a human antibody fragment (Fc). DFCs are designed to save lives and improve the standard of care for patients facing cancers and other serious diseases by inhibiting specific disease targets while simultaneously engaging the immune system. In addition, Cidara received FDA approval for REZZAYO™ (rezafungin for injection), which it has licensed to multiple partners to commercialize in the U.S. and ex-U.S. Cidara is headquartered in San Diego, California.
