Anaveon, a clinical-stage immuno-oncology company, announced updated clinical data from the ongoing Phase I/II study of ANV419 in patients with solid tumors, as well as new pre-clinical data further elucidating the mode of action of this powerful and selective interleukin-2 (IL-2) agonist, in poster presentations at the European Society for Medical Oncology (ESMO) Congress 2022, which took place in Paris, September 9 – 13, 2022.
“We are very excited by the safety, selectivity and preliminary efficacy of ANV419 which builds on the data that we presented at AACR earlier this year,” added Christoph Bucher, MD, Chief Medical Officer of Anaveon. “At doses equivalent to high dose IL-2, ANV419 maintains a safety and pharmacokinetic profile which will enable us to select the most effective dose level without incurring the side effects seen by other IL-2 therapies. We will now initiate our Phase II program investigating the efficacy of ANV419 in Melanoma and Multiple Myeloma and look forward to demonstrating the full therapeutic potential of ANV419 for patients.”
