The poster presentations are scheduled both online and offline.

Details of the Poster presentations are as follows:

About 欧洲杯买球网游戏:

欧洲杯买球网游戏, a dual acting molecule that binds CD39 and TGF-β simultaneously, was designed by fusing the TGF-β Receptor-II ectodomain to an antibody targeting CD39. The bi-specific molecule inhibits ATPase activity, resulting in the inhibition of the generation of immune-suppressive adenosine and promotion of immune-stimulating ATP while at the same time it also neutralizes immunosuppressive factor, TGF-β, aiming to create an immune-favorable tumor microenvironment. It has been demonstrated that 欧洲杯买球网游戏 can block Treg differentiation and significantly promote the survival and function of Teff cells. 欧洲杯买球网游戏 achieved a strong single agent anti-tumor efficacy in a PD-1 unresponsive mouse model.

About BiME:

BiME, is a proprietary bi-specific macrophage engaging platform developed by Elpiscience. By utilizing a SIRPα inhibitory antibody as a macrophage engager and activator, we have linked it to an anti-tumor-associated-antigen (TAA) antibody to directly activate macrophage phagocytosis towards the particular TAA cancer. ES028, a bispecific antibody targeting CLDN18.2 and SIRPα, is a unique biotherapeutic candidate coming out of the BiME platform. ES028 has demonstrated promising therapeutic efficacy in a pre-clinical animal model with a favorable tolerability profile. Different BIME bi-specific antibodies are being developed, utilizing different TAA antibodies to target different cancer types.
