Palleon to Present on Phase 1/2 E-602 Bi-Sialidase Trial Design at Society for Immunotherapy of Cancer (SITC) Annual Meeting

WALTHAM, Mass.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Palleon Pharmaceuticals, a clinical-stage company pioneering glyco-immunology drug development to treat cancer and inflammatory diseases, today announced that it will present on GLIMMER-01, the ongoing Phase 1/2 Trial of its lead program E-602 Bi-Sialidase at the Society for Immunotherapy of Cancer’s 37th Annual Meeting taking place in Boston from November 8-12, 2022. E-602 Bi-Sialidase is a first-in-class, glyco-immune checkpoint inhibitor which restores anti-tumor immunity by enzymatically degrading immunosuppressive sialoglycans in hypersialylated tumors and immune cells.

The Trials-in-Progress poster will include the specifics of the GLIMMER-01 trial (NCT#05259696) which is designed to assess the safety, pharmacokinetics, pharmacodynamics, and antitumor activity of E-602. The first patient was dosed in March of this year.

Details of the poster presentation are as follows:
