Studies Selected for Presentation at Global Gathering FORT MYERS, Fla., Nov. 7, 2024 /PRNewswire/ -- Clinical research conducted with participation from Florida Cancer Specialists & Research Institute, LLC (FCS) continues to advance science and breakthroughs in cancer immunotherapy, which uses the body's immune system to find, target and fight many forms of the disease. FCS physician investigators are co-authors of research results being presented this week at the Society for Immunotherapy of Cancer (SITC) Annual Meeting in Houston, the largest cancer immunotherapy conference of international leaders in the field. Continue Reading FCS physician investigators are co-authoring research being presented at the Society for Immunotherapy of Cancer (SITC) Annual Meeting in Houston, the world’s largest gathering of leaders in immunotherapy research. FCS President & Managing Physician Lucio N. Gordan, MD said, "Our shared aim is to make immunotherapy a standard of care to improve outcomes for cancer patients. Each discovery achieved through our robust clinical trials research program is bringing us closer to that reality." The following FCS physician investigators are co-authors of research results being presented during oral and/or poster abstract presentations: FCS Director of Drug Development Manish Patel, MD: Phase 1B/2, multicenter dose escalation and expansion of muzstotug (ADG126, a masked anti-CTLA-4 SAFEbody®) in combination with Pembrolizumab in advanced/metastatic MSS CRC (abstract #744); Noted as a "Top 100" Evaluation of immunomodulatory effects of ifinatamab deruxtecan (I-DXd) in the IDeate-Pantumor01 phase 1/2 study in patients with advanced solid tumors (abstract #629) A phase 1/2 clinical trial of anti-VISTA KVA12123 alone and in combination with Pembrolizumab in patients with advanced solid tumors (abstract #625) Triple blockade of DNAM-1 axis with COM701 (anti-PVRIG) + COM902 (anti-TIGIT) + pembrolizumab shows preliminary antitumor activity in patients with platinum resistant ovarian cancer, interim results of a phase I trial (abstract #985) Peripheral Blood and Tumor Gene Expression as Biomarkers and Potential Predictors of Clinical Outcome with HST-1011, an Oral CBL-B inhibitor (abstract #1310) Director of Drug Development, Lake Nona DDU Cesar Perez, MD – the late-breaking abstract: Phase 1 study of XTX101, a tumor-activated, Fc-enhanced anti-CTLA-4 monoclonal antibody, in combination with atezolizumab in patients with advanced solid tumors (abstract #1455) Alexander Philipovskiy, MD, PhD – Abequolixron (RGX-104), a first-in-class oral immunotherapy targeting the liver-X receptor (LXR), in combination with docetaxel in recurrent advanced/metastatic non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) (abstract #657).

"In ongoing studies conducted at our three drug development units, we continue to uncover critical new information about the body's response to immunotherapy, which is improving effectiveness and offering new hope for cancer patients worldwide." As one of the largest clinical research programs in the country, FCS provides access to more than 300 clinical trials at any given time within its 32 late-phase designated FCS clinics and three Drug Development Units, where research is conducted on new treatments when they are first developed, prior to FDA approval. In fact, the majority of new cancer drugs approved for use in the U.S. have been studied in clinical trials with FCS participation.
