The company's lead product candidate is a monoclonal antibody targeting the CTLA-4 immune checkpoint, aiming to enhance the body's immune response against tumors. OncoC4’s research and development efforts are centered on advancing therapies that have the potential to improve outcomes for patients with various cancers. The company is committed to leveraging cutting-edge science and technology to address critical unmet needs in oncology. Headquartered in the United States, OncoC4 collaborates with industry leaders to further its mission of transforming cancer care.

  • ONC-841

ONC-841 is a humanized antagonist anti-SIGLEC10 monoclonal antibody. It is the first SIGLEC10 antagonist to enter clinical development. Siglec10 is an inhibitory receptor gene broadly expressed in tumor-infiltrating immune cells that plays an important role in tumor evasion of the immune system through its interaction with CD24 present on tumor cells. ONC-841 blocks this interaction, enabling anti-tumor activation of immune cells including NK cells, macrophages and T cells. SIGLEC10 has an authentic immunoreceptor tyrosine-based inhibitory motif, which is distinct from other siglecs such as SIGLEC15. In preclinical studies ONC-841 has been shown increased phagocytosis of cancer cells and improved function of tumor-infiltrating T cells and innate cells, as well as enhanced antibody-dependent CD16a signalling, a surrogate for antibody-dependent cell mediated cytotoxicity (ADCC). Currently the drug is in Phase I stage of its development for the treatment of advanced solid tumors.

  • Kyowa Kirin

Boundless Bio is a clinical-stage oncology company dedicated to unlocking a new paradigm in cancer therapeutics to address the significant unmet need of patients with oncogene amplified tumors by targeting extrachromosomal DNA (ecDNA), a root cause of oncogene amplification observed in more than 14% of cancer patients. Boundless Bio is developing the first ecDNA-directed therapeutic candidates (ecDTx), BBI-355, which is an oral inhibitor of checkpoint kinase 1 (CHK1) being evaluated in a Phase 1/2 clinical trial in cancer patients with oncogene amplifications. Boundless Bio’s second ecDTx, BBI-825, is an oral inhibitor of ribonucleotide reductase (RNR) being evaluated in a Phase 1/2 clinical trial in colorectal cancer patients with BRAFV600E or KRASG12C mutations and resistance gene amplifications. Leveraging its Spyglass platform, Boundless Bio has an additional program (ecDTx 3) advancing through preclinical development and discovery. Boundless Bio is headquartered in San Diego, CA.

  • BBI-355

BBI-355, is a novel, oral, selective small molecule inhibitor of checkpoint kinase 1 (CHK1) being studied in the ongoing, first-in-human, Phase 1/2 POTENTIATE clinical trial (NCT05827614) in cancer patients with oncogene amplifications. CHK1 is a master regulator of cells’ response to replication stress (RS). RS is elevated in cancer cells with oncogene amplification, including on ecDNA, and, because of this, represents a key vulnerability of those cells. BBI-355 was designed to exploit the elevated RS in ecDNA-enabled oncogene amplified cancer cells by disrupting proper CHK1 function in regulating RS and thereby facilitating catastrophic RS to preferentially kill cancer cells relative to healthy cells.

  • OncoC4

OncoC4, Inc. is a privately held, clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company headquartered in Rockville, Maryland. Founded in 2020 by immunologists Dr. Yang Liu and Dr. Pan Zheng, the company is dedicated to developing next-generation immunotherapies targeting both innate and adaptive immune checkpoints, such as CTLA-4, CD24, and Siglecs. Its lead asset, gotistobart (ONC-392), a novel anti-CTLA-4 antibody, is being co-developed with BioNTech for multiple solid tumor indications. The company's pipeline also includes ONC-841, an anti-Siglec-10 monoclonal antibody currently in Phase 1 trials for solid tumors. In 2024, OncoC4 expanded its capabilities by merging with AcroImmune, acquiring assets like AI-081, a PD-1/VEGF bispecific antibody, and establishing in-house clinical manufacturing facilities.

  • ONC-841

ONC-841 is an investigational, first-in-class humanized monoclonal antibody developed by OncoC4, Inc. It targets SIGLEC10, an immune checkpoint receptor that enables tumor cells to evade immune detection by interacting with CD24. By blocking this interaction, ONC-841 aims to rejuvenate anti-tumor immune responses from T cells, NK cells, and macrophages within the tumor microenvironment. A Phase 1 clinical trial (NCT06352359) is currently underway in the U.S., evaluating ONC-841 as a monotherapy in patients with advanced or metastatic solid tumors. Initial safety, pharmacokinetics, and efficacy data are expected in 2025. If successful, ONC-841 could represent a novel approach in cancer immunotherapy by targeting innate immune checkpoints.

  • Transcode Therapeutics, inc

TransCode Therapeutics, Inc. is a Boston-based clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company founded in 2016, focused on developing RNA-based therapies to treat metastatic cancer. The company’s proprietary TTX platform enables targeted delivery of therapeutic RNA molecules to previously undruggable genetic targets within tumor cells. Its lead candidate, TTX-MC138, targets microRNA-10b, a key regulator of metastasis in cancers such as breast, pancreatic, and glioblastoma. Other pipeline programs include TTX-siPDL1, an siRNA therapeutic modulating PD-L1 expression, and TTX-RIGA, an RNA-based agonist of RIG-I to activate innate immunity in the tumor microenvironment. TransCode is also advancing TTX-CRISPR and TTX-mRNA platforms for gene editing and cancer vaccine development, respectively. The company collaborates with institutions like the University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center to accelerate its research and development efforts.

  • TTX-siPDL1

TTX-siPDL1 is an investigational RNA interference (RNAi) therapeutic developed by TransCode Therapeutics to target programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) in solid tumors, particularly pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). Unlike traditional monoclonal antibodies that block PD-L1 at the protein level, TTX-siPDL1 employs small interfering RNA (siRNA) to silence PD-L1 gene expression post-transcriptionally, thereby reducing PD-L1 production within tumor cells.
