Angiex Reports AACR In Vivo Data Supporting AGX101 in Combination With Immune Checkpoint Inhibitors for Solid Tumors
Preclinical in vivo data suggest AGX101 may enhance checkpoint inhibitor activity through selective targeting of tumor vasculature
CAMBRIDGE, Mass., April 17, 2026 – Angiex Inc., a developer of Nuclear-Delivered Antibody-Drug Conjugate™ (ND-ADC) therapies for solid cancers, will present preclinical in vivo data at the 2026 American Association for Cancer Research (AACR) Annual Meeting regarding AGX101, its TM4SF1-directed tubulin inhibitor conjugate, in combination with immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) targeting PD-1 or CTLA-4. The findings support AGX101 as a promising new approach in cancer therapy and suggest it may provide therapeutic benefit through novel and differentiated mechanisms of action, including selective targeting of the tumor vasculature and potentiation of immuno-oncology therapy. The data add to the growing body of evidence for AGX101, Angiex’s lead investigational ND-ADC, and further support continued evaluation of the candidate both as a monotherapy and in combination treatment strategies for patients with advanced solid tumors.
“These findings reinforce the rationale for continued evaluation of AGX101 in solid tumors,” said Paul Jaminet, Ph.D., Founder and Chief Executive Officer of Angiex. “The preclinical in vivo data are consistent with an effect on the tumor microenvironment and support further investigation of AGX101 in selected tumor types and combination settings.”
“These preclinical findings suggest that AGX101 has activity in combination with immune checkpoint inhibitors in vivo, supporting further evaluation of this approach in clinical studies,” said Glen Weiss, MD, MBA, Chief Medical Officer of Angiex. “The data are consistent with a potential effect on the tumor microenvironment and provide a rationale for ongoing investigation in both monotherapy and combination settings.”

About AGX101’s Phase 1 Clinical Trial
The Phase 1 study is an open-label, dose-escalation and expansion trial designed to assess the safety, pharmacokinetics (PK), pharmacodynamics (PD), and preliminary anti-tumor activity of AGX101 as a monotherapy. The dose-escalation portion is designed to assess doses up to 10 mg/kg in an all-comers solid tumor patient population and is intended to determine the maximum tolerated dose. The dose-expansion portion is designed to evaluate safety and efficacy of treatment at the recommended Phase 2 dose in multiple indications.
AGX101 clinical trial information
Information about AGX101’s clinical trial is available at ClinicalTrials.gov under study ID NCT06440005.
