(Nasdaq: KA), a clinical-stage biotechnology company focused on the development of novel immunotherapies in oncology that address cancer immune resistance, announced today that it will present a poster on the Company’s anti-CD27 agonist antibody program at the American Association for Cancer Research (AACR) Special Conference on Tumor Immunology and Immunotherapy, to be held on October 1-4, 2023 in Toronto, ON, Canada. Thierry Guillaudeux, Ph.D., Chief Scientific Officer of Kineta, will be presenting new preclinical data on the company’s anti-CD27 agonist antibodies in development for the treatment of advanced solid tumors. Presentation Details: About Kineta VISTA is a negative immune checkpoint that suppresses T cell function in a variety of solid tumors. High VISTA expression in tumor correlates with poor survival in cancer patients and has been associated with a lack of response to other immune checkpoint inhibitors. Blocking VISTA induces an efficient polyfunctional immune response to address immunosuppression and drives anti-tumor responses.
