ALX Oncology (ALXO) announced that the first patient has been dosed in the Company’s Phase 1 clinical trial for ALX2004, a potential best- and first-in-class, epidermal growth factor receptor, EGFR, ADC that is being studied for the treatment of EGFR-expressing solid tumors. “Dosing of the first patient in the Phase 1 trial is an important milestone in ALX Oncology’s mission to develop a pipeline of best-in-class drugs; ALX2004 is our first ADC and treating our first patient with this drug is a significant step forward in fulfilling the potential of EGFR-targeted ADCs,” said Jason Lettmann, Chief Executive Officer at ALX Oncology. “Our preclinical data supports our conviction that ALX2004, with its optimized antibody, linker and payload, has the potential to overcome the toxicity challenges that have limited earlier generation EGFR-targeted ADCs. We look forward to enrolling this trial and expect to report initial safety data in the first half of 2026.”
