MiNK's flagship program, agenT-797, is currently in a Phase 2 trial aimed at treating second-line gastroesophageal cancer. This trial, led by Dr. Yelena Janjigian at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center, builds on promising results from earlier studies where agenT-797 demonstrated the ability to overcome resistance to immune checkpoint inhibitors. The trial is exploring the combination of agenT-797 with other advanced treatments, such as botensilimab and balstilimab, to improve outcomes for patients with challenging gastrointestinal cancers.
Another significant candidate in MiNK's pipeline is MiNK-215, an IL-15 armored FAP-targeting CAR iNKT cell therapy. This candidate has shown remarkable efficacy in preclinical models for colorectal cancer liver metastases, overcoming the immune barriers typically posed by liver metastases.
The company recently reported a strong year-end financial position with ongoing collaborations, including a research agreement with ImmunoScape. MiNK Therapeutics continues to advance its clinical programs while maintaining a focus on scalable and reproducible manufacturing processes for its iNKT cell therapies.
