This initial dose-escalation study demonstrated a favorable safety profile, dose-dependent biologic activity, and monotherapy anti-tumor activity,” said Willie Quinn, Chief Executive Officer. “BDC-3042 deserves rapid development, especially given its enormous commercial potential. We are launching a process to find a partner with the resources to accelerate development and optimize commercialization.”\n \n\n BDC-3042 is a proprietary agonist antibody that targets dectin-2, an immune-activating receptor expressed by tumor-associated macrophages (TAMs). Dectin-2 is a C-type lectin receptor best known for its role in pathogen recognition and induction of protective immune responses against fungi and other microbes. This single-agent, dose-escalation Phase 1 clinical study is evaluating BDC-3042 in patients with metastatic or unresectable triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC), clear cell renal cell carcinoma (ccRCC), colorectal cancer (CRC), melanoma, non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), and ovarian cancer.\n \n\n\n Key Clinical Study Findings:\n \n\n\n Seventeen patients with six different tumor types and a median of four prior lines of ther...
