These include IO-108, an antagonist antibody targeting LILRB2 (ILT4), in Phase I clinical development for solid tumors and IO-202; an antagonist antibody targeting LILRB4 (ILT3), in Phase I clinical development for the treatment of acute myeloid leukemia (AML), chronic myelomonocytic leukemia (CMML), and solid tumors. Additional assets in Immune-Onc’s pipeline include IO-106, a first-in-class antagonist antibody targeting LAIR1; IO-312, a novel bispecific antibody targeting LILRB4 and CD3 (LILRB4 x CD3); and multiple undisclosed programs.

LILRB4 (Leukocyte Immunoglobulin Like Receptor B4) • LAIR1 (Leukocyte Associated Immunoglobulin Like Receptor 1)
In combination therapy, 1 AML patient with high LILRB4 expression who was refractory to azacitidine and venetoclax based combination therapy achieved CR, ongoing at 7+ months. IO-202 is safe and well tolerated as monotherapy and in combination with AZA. Encouraging responses, including monotherapy activity, ongoing CR in an AML patient with high LILRB4 expression, and PR and Optimal Marrow Response in CMML patients, were observed. PD biomarker data supported proposed MOA.

APOE (Apolipoprotein E) • LILRB4 (Leukocyte Immunoglobulin Like Receptor B4)
Major exclusion criteria include: 1) HSCT within 60 days, on calcineurin inhibitors, or chronic GVHD; 2) chemotherapy, radiotherapy, or investigational agents within 7 days; 3) significant cardiac disease; 4) active infection; 5) uncontrolled CNS leukemia; and 6) hyperleukocytosis ( > 25 x 109/L, although hydroxyurea is permitted). If there is a >80% probability of DLTs being > 20%, the study will be paused to further evaluate the safety findings. A planned protocol amendment will evaluate combination therapies with IO-202, including IO-202 + azacitidine.
