About IMGS-001, a PD-L1/PD-L2 Dual-Specific Inhibitor
ImmunoGenesis’ lead program is IMGS-001, a PD-L1/PD-L2 dual-specific inhibitor with an engineered cytotoxic effector function. As the first molecule to target PD-L2 in addition to PD-L1, IMGS-001 has the potential to shut down the entire PD-1 pathway, potentially providing superior blockade compared to other PD-1 or PD-L1 inhibitors. The built-in engineered effector function allows IMGS-001 to kill immunosuppressive cells that express PD-L1 and/or PD-L2. Preclinical data showed that IMGS-001 offered five times the response rate in cold tumors than currently available immunotherapies. Additionally, IMGS-001 can provide a foundation for add-on therapies.
