Suzhou Innovent Bio started a China Phase I trial of an anti-PD-1/TIGIT bispecific antibody in advanced malignant tumors, especially GI cancers. Innovent said preclinical studies of IBI321 showed it retains the activity of a PD-1 inhibitor while suppressing TIGIT to enhance anti-cancer efficacy. TIGIT is an immune checkpoint receptor that plays a role in tumor immune surveillance. IBI321 was discovered through a collaboration between Innovent and Eli Lilly, but is being developed in China by Innovent. The Phase Ia study will evaluate dosing of IBI321 in several solid tumors.
