About this update from Macrogenics, Inc.
ROCKVILLE, Md., May 13, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- MacroGenics, Inc. (NASDAQ: MGNX), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company focused on discovering, developing, manufacturing and commercializing innovative antibody-based therapeutics for the treatment of cancer, today provided an update on its recent corporate progress and reported financial results for the quarter ended March 31, 2025. “In the first quarter, we advanced our innovative pipeline of clinical product candidates. Notably, we dosed the first patient in our Phase 2 LINNET study of lorigerlimab, which will evaluate patients with platinum-resistant ovarian cancer and clear cell gynecologic cancers. We believe lorigerlimab, a differentiated bispecific checkpoint inhibitor, may be uniquely positioned to address the significant unmet need in both indications,” said Scott Koenig, M.D., Ph.D., President and CEO of MacroGenics. “We are focused on continued clinical execution this year and look forward to sharing our progress, including a clinical update from the LORIKEET Phase 2 study in the second half of 2025.” Updates on Proprietary Investigational Programs Lorigerlimab is a bispecific, tetravalent PD-1 × CTLA-4 DART® molecule designed to enhance CTLA-4 blockade on dual-expressing, tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes compared to a PD-1/CTLA-4 monoclonal antibody (mAb) combination therapy, while maintaining maximal PD-1 blockade on all PD-1-expressing cells. Emerging ADC Pipeline. MacroGenics is developing two clinical and one preclinical antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) molecules that each incorporate a novel, glycan-linked topoisomerase I inhibitor (TOP1i)-based payload developed by the Company’s collaboration partner, Synaffix (a Lonza company). These three ADC candidates are described below.
