iOmx Therapeutics submits Clinical Trial Application
for IOMX-0675

  • IOMX-0675 selectively targets LILRB1 and LILRB2, key immunosuppressive receptors, while sparing immune-activating family members
  • IOMX-0675 reprograms myeloid cells and restores cytotoxic T cell function, demonstrating strong anti-tumor potential

Martinsried / Munich, Germany, December 19, 2024 – iOmx Therapeutics AG (iOmx), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company translating unexplored immune evasion biology into a growing pipeline of biomarker-enabled drug programs, today announced the submission of the Clinical Trial Application (CTA) for IOMX‑0675, the second pipeline candidate. IOMX‑0675 is a proprietary, dual‑targeting, fully human antibody designed to address the key immune-regulatory LILR receptor family expressed on myeloid and lymphoid immune cells.

Specifically, IOMX-0675 targets LILRB1 and LILRB2, the two most potent immunosuppressive receptors within this family, while sparing closely related immune‑activating receptors LILRA1 and LILRA3. By selectively neutralizing these immunosuppressive receptors, IOMX‑0675 reprograms the immunosuppressive myeloid compartment and restores cytotoxic T cell activity, as demonstrated in preclinical studies, unleashing the full anti-tumor potential of the immune system.

“The submission of the CTA for IOMX-0675 marks another key milestone on our journey to translate novel immune evasion biology into a pipeline of clinical-stage projects,” said Apollon Papadimitriou, Ph.D., Chief Executive Officer of iOmx. “With its unique and highly differentiated profile, IOMX-0675 stands out as a best-in-class antibody in a target class that is increasingly supported by clinical validation. I am convinced that IOMX‑0675 has the potential to become a transformative treatment for cancer patients in need.”
