Because targeting HER2 and/or HER3 has been shown to be effective in NRG1-rearranged tumor models, Schram, Odintsov, and colleagues investigated zenocutuzumab, a HER2xHER3 bispecific antibody, in NRG1-rearranged tumors. In preclinical models of lung, breast, pancreas, and ovarian NRG1-rearranged tumors, zenocutuzumab reduced cell growth and HER3 and AKT phosphorylation and induced apoptosis. Three patients with NRG1 fusion–positive metastatic cancers were treated with zenocutuzumab and had a partial response, supporting its ongoing clinical evaluation in NRG1 fusion–positive cancers. See article, p. 1233. PD-1/PD-L1 blockade reportedly synergizes with agonists targeting the costimulatory molecule 4-1BB on primed CD8+ T cells. Muik and colleagues report the preclinical characterization and phase I results of GEN1046, a bispecific antibody designed to elicit an antitumor... You do not currently have access to this content.
