29 Apr 2025: Innate Pharma highlights preclinical anti-tumor efficacy data of its antibody drug conjugate IPH4502 at the AACR 2025 annual meeting

  • Innate Pharma presented new preclinical data at AACR 2025 showing that its ADC IPH4502, targeting Nectin-4, demonstrated superior anti-tumor activity compared to Enfortumab vedotin in models with low or resistant Nectin-4 expression
  • IPH4502 outperformed existing therapies in urothelial carcinoma models, including those resistant to Enfortumab vedotin due to multi-drug resistance mechanisms
  • The ADC showed strong preclinical efficacy in additional tumor types such as triple-negative breast cancer, head and neck, and esophageal cancers, supporting broader clinical potential 
  • IPH4502 leverages a topoisomerase I inhibitor payload, offering improved internalization, cytotoxicity, and bystander killing effect compared to other Nectin-4-exatecan ADCs
  • The data supports IPH4502 as a differentiated ADC candidate with potential to overcome resistance and toxicity limitations of current Nectin-4-targeting therapies
