Purple Biotech Ltd. (NASDAQ/TASE: PPBT), a clinical-stage biopharmaceutical company, has announced that it will present a poster on its novel CAPTN-3 tri-specific antibody platform at the European Association for Cancer Research (EACR) 2025. The presentation is scheduled for June 17, 2025, during the Immunotherapy session in Lisbon, Portugal.
The abstract, titled "CAPTN-3: A novel platform of conditionally activated T cell and NK cell engagers," will be presented by Dr. Hadas Reuveni, Vice President of Research and Development at Purple Biotech. The abstract will be available online following the presentation [1].
Purple Biotech focuses on developing first-in-class therapies to overcome tumor immune evasion and drug resistance. The company's oncology pipeline includes CM24, NT219, and CAPTN-3. CM24 is a humanized monoclonal antibody that blocks CEACAM1, a novel target for multiple cancer indications. NT219 is a dual inhibitor targeting IRS1/2 and STAT3, showing anti-tumor activity in combination with cetuximab in second-line patients with recurrent and/or metastatic squamous cell carcinoma of the head and neck (R/M SCCHN) [1].
The CAPTN-3 platform is a preclinical platform of conditionally activated tri-specific antibodies that engage both T cells and NK cells to induce a strong, localized immune response within the tumor microenvironment. The technology presents a novel mechanism of action by unleashing both innate and adaptive immune systems to mount an optimal anti-tumoral immune response [1].
The company's corporate headquarters are located in Rehovot, Israel. For more information, please visit the official website of Purple Biotech [1].
