HOWL Werewolf Therapeutics Inc

Werewolf Therapeutics, Inc. (the “Company” or “Werewolf”) (Nasdaq: HOWL), an innovative biopharmaceutical company pioneering the development of conditionally activated therapeutics engineered to stimulate the body’s immune system for the treatment of cancer, today announced the upcoming presentation of clinical data from dose-escalation arms of the Phase 1/1b trial evaluating WTX-124, its conditionally activated Interleukin-2 (IL-2) INDUKINE™ molecule, as monotherapy and in combination with pembrolizumab in patients with locally advanced or metastatic solid tumors after checkpoint inhibitor therapy. Highlights from the data as of January 28, 2024, were published today in an abstract for the upcoming poster presentation, which will include additional data from a May 1, 2024, cut-off date, at the 2024 American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) Annual Meeting, taking place May 31 - June 4 in Chicago, Illinois.

“We are very pleased by WTX-124 clinical results published in today’s abstract, which not only build upon initial monotherapy tolerability, biomarker and clinical activity data presented last Fall at SITC but also establish a similarly well-tolerated profile in combination with pembrolizumab,” said Daniel J. Hicklin, Ph.D., President and Chief Executive Officer of Werewolf. “We believe the emerging profile from our IL-2 INDUKINE molecule has an opportunity to address the profound unmet medical need among patients with difficult-to-treat solid tumors who have progressed on checkpoint therapy and look forward to presenting additional details from monotherapy and combination therapy dose escalation arms of the trial at ASCO in early June.”

Details for the poster presentation are as follows:

Title: A phase 1/1b study of the IL-2 prodrug WTX-124 in patients with locally advanced or metastatic solid tumors after checkpoint inhibitor therapy: Initial results of the combination dose escalation with pembrolizumabSession Date: Saturday, June 1, 2024Session Time: 9:00 AM-12:00 PM CDTBoard Number: 102

About Werewolf TherapeuticsWerewolf Therapeutics, Inc., is an innovative biopharmaceutical company pioneering the development of therapeutics engineered to stimulate the body’s immune system for the treatment of cancer. We are leveraging our proprietary PREDATOR™ platform to design conditionally activated molecules that stimulate both adaptive and innate immunity with the goal of addressing the limitations of conventional proinflammatory immune therapies. Our INDUKINE™ molecules are intended to remain inactive in peripheral tissue yet activate selectively in the tumor microenvironment. Our most advanced clinical stage product candidates, WTX-124 and WTX-330, are systemically delivered, conditionally activated Interleukin-2 (IL-2), and Interleukin-12 (IL-12) INDUKINE molecules, respectively, for the treatment of solid tumors. We expect to advance WTX-124 in multiple tumor types as a single agent and in combination with an immune checkpoint inhibitor and WTX-330 in multiple tumor types or Non-Hodgkin Lymphoma as a single agent.
