Sonnet BioTherapeutics Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ:SONN) is a clinical-stage biotechnology company based in Cranbury, New Jersey. The firm is pioneering the development of targeted immunotherapeutic drugs primarily aimed at treating cancers. Sonnet employs its proprietary FHAB (Fully Human Albumin Binding) technology, which utilizes a single-chain antibody fragment that binds to human serum albumin for targeted delivery to tumor and lymphatic tissues. This innovative platform enhances drug efficacy and safety by extending the half-life of therapeutic agents and concentrating them in the tumor microenvironment (TME).
Sonnet’s mission focuses on generating immuno-oncology candidates and advancing them to Phase II clinical assets. The company's current pipeline includes several promising products:
- SON-080 - A low-dose IL-6 aimed at treating chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy (CIPN).
- SON-1210 - Combines IL-12 and IL-15 with Sonnet's FHAB for robust immune response targeting tumors.
- SON-1010 - Consists of a single-chain IL-12 linked with the albumin-binding domain for enhanced targeting and efficacy in cancer treatment.
Recent achievements include the publication of preclinical data demonstrating the efficacy of SON-1210 in reducing tumor growth in melanoma models. Additionally, the company reported positive safety and tolerability results from Phase 1 studies of SON-1010 in healthy volunteers and cancer patients.
