    Today, F-star Therapeutics announced the interim results of its second-generation STING agonist SB 11285 in the first human dose escalation study
    .


    This clinical trial aims to evaluate the safety and efficacy of intravenous infusion of SB 11285 as a single agent or in combination with the anti-PD-L1 monoclonal antibody atezolizumab in the treatment of patients with advanced solid tumors


    STING is a transmembrane protein located in the endoplasmic reticulum of the cell, which plays a key role in the immune system's production of type I interferon against pathogens
    .


    Studies have shown that the activation of STING is associated with a long-lasting anti-cancer immune response


    F-Star’s SB 11285 differs from the first-generation STING agonist in that it can be delivered systemically, allowing the drug to be delivered to difficult-to-reach tumors
    .


    Moreover, SB 11285 may promote the migration of activated immune cells from the periphery to tumor lesions

    The interim results of the phase 1 clinical trial showed that SB 11285, as a single agent, showed good tolerability at the five doses that have been evaluated so far, and the three dose groups used in combination with atezolizumab also showed good tolerability.


    The preliminary pharmacokinetic analysis results are consistent with the rapid absorption of SB 11285 by cells
