Research summary

This study evaluates the efficacy and safety of SNS-101, a pH-selective antibody targeting the V-domain Ig suppressor of T cell activation (VISTA), in enhancing anti-PD-1 therapy responses. The research investigates how SNS-101 modulates immune checkpoints to improve cancer immunotherapy outcomes.

Key outcome of the study

SNS-101 demonstrated favorable pharmacokinetics and safety profiles, effectively enhancing the response to PD-1 blockade in tumor models. The combination therapy led to significant tumor growth inhibition, suggesting that pH-selective VISTA inhibition can potentiate anti-PD-1 immunotherapy.

Mouse model

The study utilized human VISTA Knockin and BRGSF-HIS mouse models developed in collaboration with genOway. These models express human VISTA, allowing for the assessment of SNS-101's efficacy and safety in a humanized immune system context.
