Checkpoint Therapeutics has resubmitted its Biologics License Application (BLA) to the FDA for cosibelimab, an anti-PD-L1 antibody aimed at treating metastatic or locally advanced cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma (cSCC). The resubmission follows alignment with the FDA to address issues cited in a December CRL, which highlighted deficiencies found during a CMO inspection but did not raise concerns about clinical data, safety, or labeling. The BLA is supported by positive results from pivotal studies in cSCC, showing high objective and complete response rates, with longer-term data revealing deepening responses over time. Cosibelimab is a high-affinity, fully-human IgG1 subtype antibody designed to block PD-L1 interactions and potentially enhance anti-tumor immune responses.
