Preclinical Efficacy of PORT-7: Portage Biotech's PORT-7, a selective adenosine A2B receptor inhibitor, showed superior efficacy in a murine mesothelioma model compared to anti-PD1 antibody alone, with enhanced immune responses observed when combined with anti-PD1 treatment.
Clinical Trial Preparations: Portage is preparing to initiate a first-in-human clinical trial for PORT-7 while also advancing the dose escalation of PORT-6, aiming to eventually co-administer both drugs in the ongoing ADPORT-601 trial.
