Zai Lab to Present New Data from Internally Developed, Next-Generation Oncology Candidates at AACR 2025 Annual Meeting
26 Marzo 2025 - 12:00PM
Business Wire
- Poster presentation will highlight the potential of ZL-6201 as
an innovative antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) for the treatment of
sarcoma and other leucine-rich repeat-containing protein 15
(LRRC15)-positive solid tumors
- Late-breaking poster presentation will summarize data from
preclinical evaluation of ZL-1222, a promising next-generation
interleukin-12 (IL-12) immunocytokine therapy for the treatment of
various cancers
Zai Lab Limited (NASDAQ: ZLAB; HKEX: 9688) today announced that
data from preclinical studies of the Company’s internally
discovered and developed next-generation, investigational oncology
therapies, ZL-6201, an LRRC15 antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) for the
treatment of sarcoma, and ZL-1222, a PD-1 targeted IL-12
immunocytokine for cancer immunotherapy, will be presented during
poster sessions at the upcoming American Association for Cancer
Research (AACR) Annual Meeting 2025 taking place April 25-30, 2025
in Chicago, Illinois.
“Aligned with our strategy for our internally developed global
oncology pipeline, ZL-6201 and ZL-1222 are promising
investigational compounds with the potential to address multiple
cancer types, including several that remain challenging to treat
with current standard-of-care therapies,” said Rafael G. Amado,
M.D., President, Head of Global Research and Development at Zai
Lab.
LRRC15 is a type I transmembrane protein and an appealing target
for cancer therapy because it is overexpressed in various
mesenchymal tumors, such as sarcoma, glioblastoma and melanoma. Zai
Lab is evaluating ZL-6201 as a potential first-in-class LRRC15 ADC
targeting multiple solid tumors.
Interleukin-12 treatments have demonstrated potential to offer
therapeutic benefit across a range of cancer types; however, narrow
therapeutic windows and toxicity concerns have limited the benefit
of this therapeutic class. Zai Lab is evaluating ZL-1222 as a
potential next-generation PD-1-targeted IL-12 immunocytokine for
cancer immunotherapy across a variety of indications, potentially
combining potent antitumor activity with improved systemic
safety.
