On 7 Nov, AstraZeneca announced that it will present clinical results for its next-generation T-cell splicer, AZD0486, in relapsed/refractory follicular lymphoma (R/R FL) at this year's American Society of Hematology (ASH) Annual Meeting.

AZD0486, a novel IgG4 fully human CD19xCD3 bispecific T-cell engager (TCE), is uniquely designed to bind CD3 with low affinity to reduce cytokine release upon T-cell activation, while preserving effective T-cell cytotoxicity against malignant B cells. AZD0486 was active and well tolerated in patients (pts) with relapsed/refractory (R/R) B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (B-NHL), including those with R/R diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBCL) (Gaballa, et al. Blood. 2023). Here, we present interim results from the ongoing phase 1, dose-escalation trial of AZD0486 in pts with R/R DLBCL (NCT04594642).

Drug structure of AZD0486


Conclusion: AZD0486 is active in pts with heavily pretreated DLBCL and responses appear to be target dose–dependent at least up to 15 mg. At target doses evaluated, AZD0486 was well tolerated, with 2SUD mitigating CRS and ICANS events. Dose escalation is ongoing.

Accelerating Development of FOLR1 Target to Advance Multidimensional Cancer Therapy
Folate receptor alpha (FRα, FOLR1) is rapidly becoming one of the hottest targets in tumor therapy. With multiple antibody–drug conjugates (ADCs) now entering Phase III trials from global leaders like Eli Lilly and AstraZeneca, and emerging players such as Bio Thera and ProTarget Bio joining the race, competition around this target is intensifying.

From Elahere’s FDA approval to a new generation of FRα-directed ADCs, monoclonal antibodies, CAR-T therapies, and vaccines, the field is shifting from concept validation to clinical reality.

Dive into the full analysis to see how FRα is redefining the landscape of epithelial tumor treatment — and why it’s drawing worldwide attention from oncology innovators.

PD-1 × IL-2: A Combined Approach to Redefining Tumor Immunotherapy Strategies
While PD-1 inhibitors have transformed cancer treatment, their limits are becoming clear — and a new wave of innovation is rising. Cytokine engineering and PD-1 × IL-2 fusion therapies are redefining how we think about precision immune activation.

As PD-1 inhibitors reach their limits, the next frontier lies in cytokine engineering. Both Roche and Innovent Biologics are pursuing the PD-1 × IL-2v fusion strategy — yet with fundamentally different design philosophies.

TSHR: The Core Target in Thyroid Metabolic Regulation and Disease Therapy
The thyroid-stimulating hormone receptor (TSHR) is emerging as a key target in next-generation thyroid and autoimmune disease treatments. Once limited to hormone regulation, TSHR therapies now combine endocrine and immune pathways for greater precision and efficacy. With growing research and industry momentum, TSHR is shaping the future of smarter, more targeted thyroid therapies.
