INDIANAPOLIS, June 26, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- POINT Biopharma Global Inc. (NASDAQ: PNT) (the “Company” or “POINT”), a company accelerating the discovery, development, and global access to life-changing radiopharmaceuticals, today announced the publication of preclinical data from their pan-cancer, fibroblast activation protein-α (FAP)-targeted program, PNT2004, at the 2023 Annual Meeting of the Society of Nuclear Medicine & Molecular Imaging (SNMMI), taking place June 24-27, 2023, in Chicago, IL.

Key Points: 
  • PNT6555, the lead candidate in the PNT2004 program, led to complete and durable tumor regression and improved survival in HEK-mFAP tumor-bearing mice when chelated to any one of the three radioisotopes studied: lutetium-177 (177Lu), actinium-225 (225Ac), and terbium-161 (161Tb).
  • Additionally, 177Lu-PNT6555 in combination with anti-PD-1 checkpoint blockade was assessed in the aggressive, immunocompetent CT26-mFAP mouse model and demonstrated a significant survival benefit compared to either treatment alone.
  • “By continuing to develop expertise in more isotopes, POINT is better positioned to create optimized next-generation radioligands, which match a ligand’s properties with the most appropriate isotope,” said Joe McCann, Ph.D., Chief Executive Officer of POINT Biopharma.
  • “The expertise to discover and develop new radioligands and advance them into clinical trials has been built into POINT.
