"We are extremely pleased to announce the progress of HBM4003 studies at ASCO Annual Meeting 2022. HBM4003 has a remarkable safety and tolerability profile with encouraging anti-tumor efficacy. Given the high therapeutic promise of HBM4003, we are proceeding with multiple global phase Ib/IIa trials in solid tumors. We look forward to bringing this novel therapeutic to cancer patients worldwide." Said Dr. Humphrey Gardner, CMO of Harbour BioMed.
HBM4003 has demonstrated strong efficacy and excellent safety profile. It is believed that this product will have the potential to lead the development of next generation therapy of immuno-oncology, especially combination therapeutics. The Company will continue to be fully committed to advancing the global clinical development project of HBM4003, furthering its global innovation and development strategy in 2022.
Harbour BioMed is developing HBM4003 as part of its broad and innovative immuno-oncology pipeline to address significant unmet medical needs in many solid tumor indications.
About HBM4003
HBM4003 is a fully human anti-CTLA-4 monoclonal heavy chain only antibody (HCAb) generated from Harbour Mice®. It is the first fully human heavy-chain-only monoclonal antibody entered into clinical stage globally. By enhancing antibody-dependent cell cytotoxicity (ADCC) killing activity, HBM4003 has demonstrated significantly improved depletion specific to high CTLA-4 expressing Treg cells in tumor tissues. The potent anti-tumor efficacy and differentiated pharmacokinetics with durable pharmacodynamic effect presents a favorable product profile. This novel and differentiated mechanism of action has the potential to improve efficacy while significantly reducing the toxicity of the drug in monotherapy and combination therapy.
