About CHS-114
CHS-114, a human, afucosylated anti-CCR8 monoclonal antibody, is designed to selectively target human CCR8 and preferentially deplete CCR8+ regulatory T cells (Tregs) within the tumor microenvironment, not effector T (Teff) cells in tumors or Tregs in normal tissue. In preclinical studies, CHS-114 induced antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC) and/or antibody-dependent cellular phagocytosis (ADCP) to deplete tumoral CCR8+ Tregs. In addition, treatment with CHS-114 alone reduced tumor growth in murine models, and enhanced antitumor activity was observed in combination with anti-PD-1 treatment.
CHS-114 is currently being evaluated in a Phase 1 clinical trial (NCT05635643) as a monotherapy and in combination with toripalimab in advanced solid tumors, including head and neck cancer. As reported in June 2023, early evidence of biological effect has been seen with CCR8+ Tregs depletion in blood following treatment with CHS-114, with no effect observed on non-CCR8+ Tregs. Clinical data from the CHS-114 ...
