Promising results for Lead Biologics’ first-in-class checkpoint inhibitor published in Nature Cancer
Lead Biologics takes a major step towards a new cancer treatment. A new study shows that the company’s drug candidate effectively inhibits a previously unknown immune escape mechanism and eliminates acute myeloid leukemia cells in advanced experimental models.
– This confirms the great interest in our novel approach to treating cancer, and is an important step towards first-in-human studies, says Anki Malmborg Hager, CEO at Lead Biologics.
The discovery that is now published in Nature Cancer is based on research from Lund University led by professor Thoas Fioretos who is also one of the founders of Lead Biologics and one of CREATE Health Principle Investigators.
