Mabwell (688062.SH), an innovation-driven biopharmaceutical company with entire industry chain, presented 6 study results of innovative drugs and platforms in poster format at the American Association for Cancer Research (AACR) annual meeting, held from April 25 to 30, 2025.

Poster Presentation

1. A B7-H3-targeting antibody-drug conjugate, 7MW3711, and PARP inhibitors synergistically potentiate the antitumor activity in B7-H3-positive cancers

Published Abstract Number: 830

Both PARP inhibitors and B7-H3-targeting ADC are feasible therapies to chemotherapy resistant solid tumors. Mabwell combines its self-developed 7MW3711 with PARP inhibitors to explore the synergistic antitumor activity of the ADC+PARPi combination strategy in preclinical solid tumor models.

In this study, the synergistic antitumor activity shown by 7MW3711 in combination with PARPi suggests that it is a promising strategy to combine DNA damage repair inhibitor and B7-H3-targeting ADC for the treatment of B7-H3-positive solid tumors. The data provide evidence for the potential utility of 7MW3711 combination with PARPi for treatment of B7-H3-expressing tumors and support the rationale for further clinical application.

2. Design and synthesis of the novel camptothecin analog MF6 for application into site-specific antibody-drug conjugate

Published Abstract Number: 5733

This study preliminarily validated the antitumor activity and safety of MF6, a novel payload based on the Mtoxin™ platform, in multiple in vivo and in vitro models. The experimental results demonstrated that MF6 possessed favorable tumor-killing activity and maintains significant efficacy in multidrug-resistant models resistant to DXd. ADCs constructed using the clinically validated site-specific conjugation technology IDDC™ and our novel payload MF6 demonstrated good uniformity and stability, and exhibited significant antitumor efficacy in multiple CDX models. Additionally, these ADCs show a potent bystander killing effect enabling the killing of nearby tumor cells and thereby further enhancing the antitumor efficacy. ADCs synthesized with MF6 have excellent serum and plasma stability and pharmacokinetic properties, providing strong support for future clinical application.

3. MW-C01/C02, novel CLDN1-targeting antibody-drug conjugates, demonstrate compelling anti-tumor efficacy and favorable safety profiles in preclinical studies

Published Abstract Number: 1573

MW-C01/C02 are novel CLDN1-targeting ADCs, developed based on our own ADC site-specific conjugation technology platform IDDC™. Claudins localize to tight junctions in healthy tissues, while their overexpression in solid tumors leads to aberrant exposure outside of these junctions, making them attractive targets for ADC therapies. Studies have shown that high expression of CLDN1 is associated with tumor proliferation, invasion, metastasis, and poor prognosis. MW-C01/C02 exhibit robust binding, rapid internalization, and potent cytotoxicity in CLDN1-positive cancer cell lines. MW-C01/C02 demonstrate potent anti-tumor activity in both preclinical CDX and PDX models and show good PK and safety profiles in primates.

4. 2MW7061, a novel LILRB4xCD3 bispecific T-cell engager targeting monocytic acute myeloid leukemia

Published Abstract Number: 2116

2MW7061 (LILRB4xCD3) is a bispecific T-cell engager (TCE) targeting LILRB4 developed based on Mabwell's TCE platform. With its unique structural design and mechanism of action, 2MW7061 exhibits minimal binding to T cells while demonstrating potent cytotoxicity against tumor cells, thereby significantly improving its safety margin without compromising efficacy. In preclinical models of AML (acute myeloid leukemia), 2MW7061 showed strong anti-tumor activity. Non-primate toxicology studies indicate a favorable safety profile, highlighting its therapeutic potential for treating AML patients.

5. An innovative T cell engager platform with optimized CD3 affinity and formats for targeting hematologic and solid tumors

Published Abstract Number: 2866

As a promising cancer therapeutic strategy, T‑cell engagers (TCEs) simultaneously bind to CD3 on T cells and tumor-associated antigens (TAAs) on cancer cells, facilitating the formation of an immunological synapse that activates T cells and directs their cytotoxic activity toward tumor cells. Clinical data have robustly demonstrated the efficacy of TCEs in hematologic malignancies; however, their clinical benefits in solid tumors remain to be fully validated. As agonists, TCEs present significant developmental challenges that require a delicate balance between efficacy and safety. In response, Mabwell has established an innovative TCE platform that meticulously optimizes various parameters—including CD3 affinity, TAA selection, and bispecific antibody format—to effectively widen the therapeutic window and maximize clinical outcomes.

6. 7MW4911, a novel cadherin 17-targeting ADC, demonstrates potent efficacy in preclinical models of gastrointestinal cancers

Published Abstract Number: 5466

7MW4911 is a novel ADC developed by Mabwell targeting CDH17, a membrane protein highly expressed in gastrointestinal cancers with limited normal tissue distribution, offering a promising therapeutic strategy for gastrointestinal malignancies. 7MW4911 is composed of a proprietary anti-CDH17 monoclonal antibody, a cleavable linker, and innovative cytotoxic payload Mtoxin™, with full intellectual property ownership. In preclinical CDX and PDX models, 7MW4911 demonstrated robust antitumor activity and superior efficacy over MMAE-based ADCs in multidrug resistance models. Pharmacokinetic and safety studies in non-human primates support a favorable profile and a high non-severely toxic dose (HNSTD), enabling clinical advancement. 7MW4911 represents a differentiated and promising ADC candidate for GI cancers, with an IND submission to the NMPA and FDA planned for H2 2025.
