Elicio Therapeutics to Present New Preliminary Data from the Ongoing AMPLIFY-7P Phase 1/2 Study of ELI-002 7P in Patients with mKRAS-driven Solid Tumors at the 2024 ASCO Annual Meeting

BOSTON, April 25, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Elicio Therapeutics, Inc. (Nasdaq: ELTX, “Elicio Therapeutics” or “Elicio”), a clinical-stage biotechnology company developing a pipeline of novel immunotherapies for the treatment of cancer, today announced that it will be sharing new preliminary data from the ongoing AMPLIFY-7P Phase 1/2 study in a poster presentation at the 2024 American Society of Clinical Oncology (“ASCO”) Annual Meeting, being held May 31-June 4, 2024 in Chicago, IL.

The AMPLIFY-7P study is evaluating the 7-peptide formulation of Elicio’s off-the-shelf investigational therapeutic cancer vaccine candidate, ELI-002 7P, in patients with mKRAS-driven solid tumors that are positive for minimal residual disease. ELI-002 7P is designed to stimulate an immune response against the seven KRAS mutations that drive 25% of all solid tumors.

About ELI-002 
Our lead product candidate, ELI-002, is a structurally novel investigational AMP cancer vaccine that targets cancers that are driven by mutations in the mKRAS-gene—a prevalent driver of many human cancers. ELI-002 is comprised of two powerful components that are built with our AMP platform consisting of AMP-modified mutant KRAS peptide antigens and an AMP-modified CpG adjuvant that is available as an off-the-shelf subcutaneous administration. 

ELI-002 2P (2 peptide formulation) is currently being studied in an ongoing Phase 1 (AMPLIFY-201) trial in patients with high relapse risk mKRAS-driven solid tumors, following surgery and chemotherapy (NCT04853017). ELI-002 7P (7 peptide formulation) is currently being studied in a Phase 1/2 (AMPLIFY-7P) trial in patients with mKRAS-driven pancreatic cancer (NCT05726864). The ELI-002 7P formulation is designed to provide immune response coverage against seven of the most common KRAS mutations present in 25% of all solid tumors, thereby increasing the potential patient population for ELI-002 and potentially reducing the chance of bypass resistance mechanisms.
