Sensei Biotherapeutics, Inc. (Nasdaq: SNSE) is a clinical stage immuno-oncology company, renowned for its innovation in next-generation cancer immunotherapies. Headquartered in Gaithersburg, MD, Sensei leverages its proprietary TMAb™ (Tumor Microenvironment Activated biologics) platform to develop cutting-edge therapeutics designed to harness the body's immune system against cancer. The company’s leading product candidates include SNS-101, SNS-102, SNS-103, and SNS-201, all of which are conditionally active antibodies targeting different immunosuppressive markers within the tumor microenvironment.
Sensei’s flagship candidate, SNS-101, is designed to block the VISTA (V-domain Ig suppressor of T cell activation) checkpoint selectively within the low pH tumor microenvironment, where VISTA acts as a suppressor of T cells by binding the receptor PSGL-1. SNS-101 is currently undergoing a multi-center Phase 1/2 clinical trial, evaluating its safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and efficacy as both a monotherapy and in combination with Regeneron's PD-1 inhibitor, Libtayo® (cemiplimab), in patients with advanced solid tumors. Initial data are promising, showing SNS-101 to be well-tolerated and demonstrating clinical activity, particularly in tumor types typically resistant to PD-1 monotherapy.
Other promising candidates include SNS-102, targeting VSIG-4 (V-Set and Immunoglobulin Domain Containing 4), and SNS-103, targeting CD39 (ecto-nucleoside triphosphate diphosphohydrolase-1), as well as SNS-201, a conditionally active VISTAxCD28 bispecific antibody. The company has established key academic collaborations, including with Brown University, to bolster its research and development efforts.
Financially, Sensei maintains a strong balance sheet with cash reserves projected to fund operations into the second half of 2025. Recent financial updates show reduced R&D and G&A expenses due to strategic restructuring, leading to a narrower net loss. The company is focused on advancing its clinical trials, with expected milestones including initial combination safety and pharmacokinetic data for SNS-101 in early 2024, followed by topline monotherapy data later in the year.
