Biological: ASONEP (sonepcizumab/LT1009)
ASONEP [sonepcizumab/LT1009] is supplied as a colorless,particulate-free, pH 6.5, sterile solution containing approximately 10 mg/mL or 20 mg/mL of drug.
The candidate drug is intended for single intravenous (iv) use administered over 90 minutes on a weekly basis.
ASONEP™ (sonepcizumab/LT1009) is a humanized monoclonal antibody that possesses anti-angiogenic and anti-tumor activity in animal models of human cancer. ASONEP™ binds sphingosine 1-phosphate (S1P), a bioactive lipid signaling molecule that possesses potent pro-growth effects.
Preclinical studies with ASONEP™ (sonepcizumab/LT1009) and LT1002 (murine homolog of LT1009), demonstrate the potential of an anti-S1P treatment to reduce tumor volumes and metastatic potential, likely as a result of inhibiting new blood vessel formation needed to support tumor growth.
Lpath is developing ASONEP™ (sonepcizumab/LT1009) for the following therapeutic indication:
ASONEP™ [parenteral sonepcizumab (LT1009) for the treatment of cancer] is indicated for use in combination with TBD cytotoxic agents and other anti-angiogenic agents as second-line therapy to treat patients with an unresectable, locally advanced, recurrent or metastatic TBD cancer.
