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.

Could GDF15 Become the Next Super Target After PD-1 and GLP-1?
A recent Nature Aging study reveals that senescent tumor-adjacent epithelial cells secrete GDF15, driving colorectal cancer progression via a metabolic–epigenetic feedback loop. This expands GDF15’s role beyond tumor cells to its influence on the surrounding microenvironment.

Emerging as a hub connecting tumor growth, immune evasion, and systemic metabolism, GDF15 is a promising target across oncology, cancer cachexia, obesity, and metabolic diseases. Monoclonal antibodies like Ponsegromab and Visugromab are showing encouraging results in early clinical trials.

ADCC, ADCP, and CDC: Antibody Structure and Class Considerations
Antibodies have evolved into versatile therapeutic platforms, capable of not only targeting disease cells but also activating the immune system through ADCC, ADCP, and CDC. Advances in Fc engineering—such as glycoengineering, targeted mutations, and FcRn optimization—are now enhancing antibody potency, selectivity, and half-life, unlocking new opportunities in oncology, autoimmune disorders, and infectious diseases.
