Lead candidates

We are utilizing our Probody® platform to develop potential best-in-class therapies against clinically validated targets and potential first-in-class therapeutics against novel, difficult-to-treat targets.

We believe our Probody therapeutics have the potential to:

  • Create or widen therapeutic window – the balance between a therapy’s dose that is effective without causing unacceptable toxicity
  • Enable new combinations of drugs previously not possible due to toxicities
  • Expand the universe of viable therapeutic targets by opening “undruggable” target space
  • Make new treatment options possible for more patients

CX-904
(EGFRc-CD3 conditionally activated T cell engaging bispecific)

CytomX and Amgen are developing CX-904, a T-cell-engaging bispecific Probody candidate against the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) on cancer cells and the CD3 receptor on T cells. The drug candidate is currently in a Phase 1 dose-escalation study in patients with advanced solid tumors.

CX-2051
(EpCAM-directed conditionally activated antibody-drug conjugate)

CX-2051 is a wholly-owned conditionally activated ADC directed toward the epithelial cell adhesion molecule (EpCAM), with potential applicability across multiple EpCAM-expressing epithelial cancers. EpCAM is a validated anti-cancer target for which systemic therapies not yet been developed due to widespread expression on normal tissues. CX-2051 is designed to open a therapeutic window for a systemically administered anti-EpCAM ADC.

CX-801
(Interferon alpha-2b Probody cytokine)

CX-801 is a wholly-owned interferon (IFN) alpha-2b Probody. Interferons are approved anti-cancer therapies but are limited by narrow therapeutic windows. Based on preclinical studies, CX-801 demonstrated a wide therapeutic index with an enhanced tolerability profile versus unmasked IFN, without compromising its potent antitumor effects. CX-801 has broad potential applicability in traditionally immuno-oncology sensitive as well as
insensitive (cold) tumors

BMS-986288
(CTLA-4-targeted conditionally activated therapeutic)

Bristol Myers Squibb is enrolling patients in the dose escalation phase of a Phase 1/2a clinical trial (NCT03994601) of an anti-CTLA-4 Probody, BMS-986288, based on a modified version of Yervoy® (ipilimumab), to evaluate a CTLA-4-targeted Probody therapeutic alone or in combination with Opdivo® (nivolumab) in patients with selected advanced solid cancers.

Clinical trials

Several of our most promising drug candidates are currently in clinical trials, investigating their potential utility in a number of advanced or recurrent cancers.
