LP-284 is a next generation acylfulvene that has a synthetically lethal mechanism of action in cancers with impaired DNA damage repair (DDR) pathway genes. In Lantern’s preclinical testing, LP-284 has shown in vitro and in vivo anti-tumor potency across a range of non-Hodgkin’s B-cell lymphomas. Of the lymphomas tested to date, LP-284 had the greatest potency against numerous MCL cell lines, including those that are resistant to the standard-of-care (SOC) agents Ibrutinib and Bortezomib. In the US, MCL is estimated to be diagnosed in around 4,500 patients each year and represents an approximate $200 million in annual therapy sales.

Lantern’s LP-284 program has been accelerated and de-risked using A.I. insights and biological modeling powered by RADR. Lantern has been able to advance LP-284 from initial RADR insights regarding anti-cancer activity and potential mechanisms of action in hematological cancers, to selection of specific subtypes of lymphomas with superior response, to late stage IND enabling studies and initial design of first in human clinical trials in less than 2 years. Lantern is planning on an IND submission for LP-284 in Q1 2023 and anticipates launching a Phase 1 clinical trial in Q2 2023.

Details of the poster presentation are listed below and can be found on the SOHO website. A full version of the poster will be available on Lantern’s website on October 3, 2022.

TechnoPhage S.A. announces spin-off of T-Oncology AG

On September 23, 2022 TechnoPhage reported the spin-off of T-Oncology AG, which will focus on the development of Antibody Drug Conjugates (ADCs), based on the proprietary Small Domain Antibodies platform (TechnoBodies), for the treatment of cancer (Press release, TechnoPhage, SEP 23, 2022, View Source;utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=technophage-s-a-announces-spin-off-of-t-oncology-ag [SID1234621387]).

TechnoBodies technology has been developed at TechnoPhage and, taking advantage of the small size of the fragment antibodies obtained, T-Oncology will construct and scale ADCs for targeted novel cancer therapy. Overall, this technology enables the sensitive discrimination between healthy and cancerous tissues and will be ultimately applied in unmet medical needs in the field of oncology.

It is also now clear to TechnoPhage’s management team that pursuing a spin-off is the most compelling path forward; indeed, "creating a new company specialized in a single technology and a specialized clinical indication can create significant value for our patients, partners and clients" said Miguel Garcia, CEO of TechnoPhage.

The new company incorporated in Kanton Zug, Switzerland, is expected to also set base as a resident in the Johnson & Johnson Life Science Incubators and Accelerators, at JLABS in Beerse, Belgium and start recruiting a new team in the next year.
