BNT111 is developed for the treatment of advanced melanoma in patients with metastatic tumors and as an adjuvant treatment after tumor resection. It is designed to elicit an immune response to four melanoma-associated antigens.

We are currently studying BNT111 in an ongoing Phase 1 clinical trial. Find out more about the Lipo-MERIT study here.

An earlier version of the BNT111 only targeting NY-ESO-1 and tyrosinase has already completed a first-in-human dose escalation study (MERIT study) evaluating the safety and tolerability of intranodal administration in patients with advanced melanoma. See more information on the clinical study here.

DRUG CLASS

mRNA Therapeutics (mRNA)

We are utilizing messenger ribonucleic acid, or mRNA, to deliver genetic information to cells, where it is used to express proteins for therapeutic effect. We are developing a portfolio of immunotherapies that utilize four different mRNA formats and three different formulations to derive five distinct platforms for the treatment of cancer. Three of these platforms are currently in human testing:

  1. our off-the-shelf shared antigen immunotherapy, or FixVac
  2. our individualized neoantigen specific immunotherapy, or iNeST, in collaboration with Genentech
  3. our intratumoral immunotherapy, in collaboration with Sanofi.

In addition, we are developing two platforms in which we use mRNA to express directly in the patient either (a) particular antibodies, or RiboMabs, or (b) specific cytokines, or RiboCytokines. In collaboration with Pfizer and Genevant, we are also leveraging our mRNA technology beyond oncology to treat influenza and rare diseases.

DRUG CLASS

mRNA Therapeutics (mRNA)

We are utilizing messenger ribonucleic acid, or mRNA, to deliver genetic information to cells, where it is used to express proteins for therapeutic effect. We are developing a portfolio of immunotherapies that utilize four different mRNA formats and three different formulations to derive five distinct platforms for the treatment of cancer. Three of these platforms are currently in human testing:

  1. our off-the-shelf shared antigen immunotherapy, or FixVac
  2. our individualized neoantigen specific immunotherapy, or iNeST, in collaboration with Genentech
  3. our intratumoral immunotherapy, in collaboration with Sanofi.

In addition, we are developing two platforms in which we use mRNA to express directly in the patient either (a) particular antibodies, or RiboMabs, or (b) specific cytokines, or RiboCytokines. In collaboration with Pfizer and Genevant, we are also leveraging our mRNA technology beyond oncology to treat influenza and rare diseases.

RiboCytokines

  • Concept: Cytokines encoded by mRNA and produced in the patient as an alternative to recombinant cytokines.
  • mRNA Format: Nucleoside-modified mRNA engineered for minimal immunogenicity in order to avoid immune detection and allow translation of the encoded cytokines to occur within the cells.
  • mRNA Delivery Formulation: Various liver-targeting LNP formulations, delivered intravenously, to ensure systemic availability and prolonged production of the cytokine in vivo.
  • Development Approach: Worldwide rights; wholly owned.
  • Lead Candidate: BNT151 in multiple advanced malignancies.

BNT211 is our CAR T cell therapy for the treatment of CLDN6-positive solid tumors. BNT211 targets CLDN6 and will initially be evaluated in combination with a FixVac that encodes CLDN6.

CLDN6 is a highly specific oncofetal cell surface antigen that is found in multiple cancers, including ovarian, testicular and lung cancers, but not in normal cells. We have observed compelling preclinical data, demonstrating potent anti-tumoral efficacy, including eradication of advanced tumors in an ovarian carcinoma xenograft model.

BNT212 is under development for the treatment of CLDN18.2-positive solid tumors and will initially be evaluated in combination with a FixVac that encodes CLDN18.2. BNT212 targets Claudin 18.2, or CLDN18.2. CLDN18.2 is a highly specific target which is only expressed in cancer and in differentiated epithelial cells of the gastric mucosa, but it is absent from the gastric stem cell zone. CLDN18.2 is expressed in numerous epithelial solid tumors, including gastric, pancreatic, esophageal, ovarian and lung tumors.

GEN1046 (BNT311) is a bispecific antibody designed to target PD-L1 and 4-1BB to block the inhibitory PD-1/PD-L1 axis and simultaneously activate essential co-stimulatory activity via 4-1BB.

PD-L1 is a validated target that is expressed on tumor cells. 4-1BB is a trans-membrane receptor belonging to the TNF super-family and is expressed predominantly on activated T cells.

In collaboration with Genmab, we are conducting a Phase 1/2, open-label, single arm safety basket trial of GEN1046 (BNT311). Find out more about the study here. We have announced the dosing of the first patient in June 2019. See the press release here.
