Alphamab Oncology ( (HK:9966) ) has issued an update.

Alphamab Oncology has initiated a phase II clinical study in which the first patient has been dosed with JSKN033, a high-concentration subcutaneous co-formulation combining a HER2 bispecific ADC and a PD-L1 inhibitor, alongside platinum-based chemotherapy with or without bevacizumab as first-line treatment for advanced cervical cancer. The trial targets a major unmet need in cervical cancer, where current immunotherapy plus platinum regimens deliver suboptimal responses for many patients despite being the standard of care.

JSKN033 is designed to offer improved convenience via subcutaneous dosing and lower hematologic toxicity, enabling flexible combination with cisplatin or carboplatin and potentially enhancing safety for patients with differing renal function and tolerance levels. Early clinical data in previously treated cervical cancer patients have shown promising efficacy and manageable safety, supporting its advancement into first-line combination therapy and underpinning Alphamab’s broader strategy to build a competitive ADC and immunotherapy-franchise across multiple solid tumor indications.

The JSKN033-202 study is an open-label, multicenter phase II trial evaluating safety, efficacy and PK/PD of JSKN033 with investigator-chosen platinum-based agents and optional bevacizumab in advanced cervical cancer. Alongside this program, Alphamab is running additional phase II monotherapy studies of JSKN033 in later-line cervical and endometrial cancers and HER2-mutant or expressing non-small cell lung cancer, reinforcing its position in the oncology biologics space and potentially expanding its addressable market if clinical outcomes are favorable.

The most recent analyst rating on (HK:9966) stock is a Buy with a HK$9.60 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Alphamab Oncology stock, see the HK:9966 Stock Forecast page.
