"I am thrilled to lead Compugen as our strong fundamentals and differentiated science gain clinical momentum," said Eran Ophir, Ph.D., President and CEO of Compugen. "Recent data at ESMO (Free ESMO Whitepaper) from our partner AstraZeneca and others reinforce our long-held view that not all anti-TIGIT antibodies are the same, and that the antibody-Fc format matters. This is because Fc reduced anti-TIGIT programs, like our fully owned anti-TIGIT, COM902, and AstraZeneca’s anti-PD-1/TIGIT bispecific rilvegostomig, preserve beneficial T cells and avoid depletion of peripheral T-regs in contrast to Fc-active anti-TIGITs and therefore have the potential for improved efficacy and safety profile. At ESMO (Free ESMO Whitepaper), AstraZeneca presented data from ARTEMIDE-01 showing rilvegostomig was well tolerated with promising efficacy confirming its potential in checkpoint naïve NSCLC with notable low rate of treatment related discontinuation supporting differentiation of the Fc-reduced format. AstraZeneca also presented data from TROPION-PanTumor03, evaluating the combination of rilvegostomig and Datroway, which showed promising efficacy and manageable safety underscoring the potential of next-generation IO bispecific plus ADCs. In addition, AstraZeneca announced it expects to launch its eleventh Phase 3 trial for rilvegostomig."
Dr. Ophir continued, "We presented pooled Phase 1 data at ESMO (Free ESMO Whitepaper) 2025 showing that COM701, our Fc-reduced anti-PVRIG antibody, is well tolerated as monotherapy and in combination and delivers durable responses in heavily pretreated platinum resistant ovarian cancer patients, with a median progression-free survival of 10.5 months in patients who derived clinical benefit. The data also showed that COM701 biology is differentiated, reflected in responses seen across PD-L1 expression levels. This data is important as it characterized responding patients, guiding the design of our ongoing blinded and randomized MAIA-ovarian platform trial evaluating single agent COM701 maintenance therapy in platinum sensitive ovarian cancer. Sites have been activated in the U.S., Israel and France, and we now estimate interim analysis in Q1 2027. We are also advancing GS-0321, a potential first-in-class anti-IL18BP antibody licensed to Gilead and presented the trial design at SITC (Free SITC Whitepaper) last week."
Dr. Ophir concluded, "Our solid financial position with cash runway expected into the third quarter of 2027 enables us to advance our differentiated IO pipeline and leverage our AI/ML powered computational discovery platform Unigen to discover novel ways to activate the immune system against cancer. I am confident in our fully owned programs, strengthened by validating partnerships with AstraZeneca and Gilead, which together offer over $1 billion in potential milestones and royalties."
