Kairos Pharma, Ltd. (NYSE American: KAPA), a clinical-stage
biopharmaceutical company, announces that the Company presented a
talk during the plenary session of the joint AACR-JCA conference,
From Cancer Discovery Science to Therapeutic Innovation,
highlighting preclinical data on its glutocorticoid-induced tumor
necrosis factor receptor (GITR) agonist, KROS101.
In the talk, titled, “KROS 101: A Next-Generation GITR Agonist
Boosting Anti-Tumor T Cell Responses and Reprogramming the Tumor
Microenvironment,” recent findings from the Company’s in vivo work
on the compound was presented. The results, which can be found
here, demonstrated that KROS 101 is a potent GITR ligand agonist
that enhances T cell infiltration, proliferation, and ability to
kill cancer cells in mouse models of melanoma and in human
glioblastoma in vitro, while effectively reducing T reg-mediated
suppression. KROS 101 showed significant activity in enabling T
cell proliferation and killing of melanoma tumors in vivo as well
as glioblastoma tumor in vitro.
GITRL, one of the checkpoint cytokines in the family of tumor
necrosis factor ligand family, regulates T cell function in
autoimmunity and cancer. KROS 101 stabilizes the active form of
GITRL and thereby reduces suppressive T-cells and enhances
cytotoxic T cells. In a preclinical study, KROS 101 reduced
melanoma tumor in a human GITR knock-in mouse model compared to
those in mice treated with the GITR antibody TRX518, which was
recently in clinical trials for solid cancers.
Dr. Ramachandran Murali, VP of Research and Development at
Kairos Pharma and co-inventor of KROS 101, stated, “The performance
of KROS 101 as a central mediator of T cell expansion in cancer has
been supported by these studies.”
Dr. John Yu, CEO of Kairos Pharma and co-inventor, added that
“the preclinical data support the potential to exploit GITR as a
lever for T cell expansion and novel therapy for cancer.”
The American Association for Cancer Research (AACR) and Japanese
Cancer Association (JCA) hosted the 13th AACR-JCA Joint Conference
from February 1-5, 2025 at the Hyatt Regency Maui, in Maui, Hawaii.
The meeting series has a long tradition of bringing together
outstanding researchers from the United States, Japan, and around
the world to share their findings and present the latest advances
in basic, translational, and clinical cancer research.
About Kairos Pharma Ltd.
Based in Los Angeles, California, Kairos Pharma Ltd. (NYSE
American: KAPA) is at the forefront of oncology therapeutics,
utilizing structural biology to overcome drug resistance and immune
suppression in cancer. Our lead candidate, ENV105, is an antibody
that targets CD105 – a protein identified as a key driver of
resistance to various cancer treatments. Elevation of CD105 in
response to standard therapy results in resistance and disease
relapse. ENV105 aims to reverse drug resistance by targeting CD105
and restore the effectiveness of standard therapies across multiple
cancer types. Currently, ENV105 is in a Phase 2 clinical trial for
castrate-resistant prostate cancer and a Phase 1 trial for lung
cancer aimed at addressing significant unmet medical needs. For
