"We are encouraged by the continued progress being made as we advance leronlimab and explore its potential applications across solid tumors," said Jacob Lalezari, M.D., CEO of CytoDyn. "The research being presented at AACR (Free AACR Whitepaper) reflects the growing body of scientific work examining CCR5 biology and its role in the tumor microenvironment. Together, these studies help deepen our understanding of how leronlimab may enhance immune responses and inform our broader strategy to develop new treatment approaches for patients with difficult-to-treat cancers."
