Sonnet BioTherapeutics Announces the Generation and Characterization of Two Novel Immunotherapeutic Pipeline Drug Candidates, SON-1411 and SON-1400, Each Containing a Variant IL-18 Domain
Sonnet BioTherapeutics (NASDAQ:SONN) announced the development of two new immunotherapeutic drug candidates, SON-1411 and SON-1400, utilizing a modified IL-18 variant. SON-1411 combines IL-18BPR with IL-12 via Sonnet’s FHAB platform, while SON-1400 solely integrates IL-18BPR with FHAB. These candidates exhibit high bioactivity and target tumor environments more effectively, mitigating the inhibitory effects of IL-18BP. SON-1411 and SON-1400 were produced in CHO cells and E. coli, respectively, and show promising in vitro results for cancer treatment by enhancing immune response against tumors. The new IL-18 variant maintains receptor binding while avoiding IL-18BP inhibition, showcasing potential for broad oncological and cell-based therapies.
