Phio Pharmaceuticals Corp. (Nasdaq: PHIO), headquartered in Marlborough, Massachusetts, is a clinical-stage biotechnology company focused on developing innovative immuno-oncology therapeutics. The company's proprietary INTASYL™ siRNA gene silencing technology is at the forefront of its efforts to enhance the effectiveness of immune cells in targeting and destroying tumor cells.
Phio's core product pipeline includes:
- PH-762: Targets the checkpoint protein PD-1 on immune cells, enhancing their ability to attack tumors. Currently in Phase 1b clinical trials, PH-762 is being tested for its efficacy in treating cutaneous squamous cell carcinoma, melanoma, and Merkel cell carcinoma.
- PH-804: Focuses on the suppressive immune receptor TIGIT, present on T cells and natural killer cells, to bolster immune responses against cancer.
- PH-790: Aims to silence the PD-L1 protein, which normally prevents immune cells from attacking non-harmful cells, thereby boosting the body's natural defenses against cancer.
Phio Pharmaceuticals collaborates with leading institutions such as Gustave Roussy, Medigene AG, and Helmholtz Zentrum München to advance their research and development efforts. The company's financial health, as of the latest reports, shows a cash position of $6.5 million, with a significant reduction in research and development expenses aimed at transitioning from discovery to product development.
