Twist Bioscience (NASDAQ: TWST) has announced the discovery of TB206-001, a first-in-class antibody targeting the adenosine A2A receptor (A2AR), which could enhance cancer immunotherapy. The preclinical study, published in PLOS ONE, shows that TB206-001 has high affinity and tumor-suppressing activity, especially in colon tumor-bearing HuCD34-NCG mice, outperforming PD-1 inhibitors. The antibody targets GPCRs, common in immune cells and certain cancers, and works by blocking A2AR, thereby activating immune cells. Twist Bioscience is offering TB206-001 for out-licensing, indicating its potential for further clinical development.
