BOSTON, Sept. 21, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Sensei Biotherapeutics, Inc. (Nasdaq: SNSE), a clinical stage immuno-oncology company focused on the discovery and development of next-generation therapeutics for cancer patients, today will present new preclinical data from SNS-101, a clinical-stage conditionally active, human monoclonal antibody targeting the immune checkpoint VISTA (V-domain Ig suppressor of T cell activation), at the Seventh Annual CRI-ENCI-AACR International Cancer Immunotherapy Conference: Translating Science into Survival, held on September 20 – 23, 2023 in Milan, Italy.

Key Points: 
  • “We believe these data further support the potential best-in-class PK and safety profile of SNS-101 and its ability to effectively target VISTA, a promising, but difficult-to-drug immune checkpoint,” said Edward van der Horst, Ph.D., Chief Scientific Officer of Sensei Biotherapeutics.
  • Paired with new mechanistic data showing SNS-101 can shift immunosuppressive macrophages towards an anti-tumor phenotype, we believe SNS-101 could provide a transformative treatment option for patients.
  • The expression of anti-tumor cytokines was correlated with a reduction in tumor size.
  • Sensei is evaluating SNS-101 in a Phase 1/2 clinical trial in patients with advanced solid tumors, and expects to report initial monotherapy pharmacokinetic and safety data by year-end 2023.
