- BOSTON, Nov. 3, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- HotSpot Therapeutics, Inc., a biotechnology company pioneering the discovery and development of oral, small molecule allosteric therapies targeting regulatory sites on proteins referred to as "natural hotspots," today announced the presentation of additional preclinical data from the Company's Casitas B-lineage lymphoma proto-oncogene (CBL-B) program in a poster presentation at the 2023 Society for Immunotherapy of Cancer (SITC) Annual Meeting.
- "Our enthusiasm for the therapeutic potential of HST-1011, a potential best-in-class CBL-B inhibitor, is partly driven by our belief that it can drive single-agent biological activity," said Timothy Reilly, Ph.D., Chief Development Officer of HotSpot.
- The presentation describes preclinical data in which HotSpot CBL-B inhibitors were evaluated in both in vitro and in vivo settings to identify and then characterize a repertoire of potential proximal biomarkers of CBL-B inhibitory activity.
- Several proteins, including phosphorylated ZAP70, Notch1 and IGF1R, showed robust dose-dependent effects and were further assessed for their reliability and potential feasibility for use in a clinical setting.
