— Abstract accepted for late-breaking poster presentation –
— EO-1022 is a potentially differentiated HER3 ADC being developed for the treatment of solid tumors, including breast and non-small cell lung cancers —
— On-track to file an Investigational New Drug (IND) application in 2026 –
BOSTON, March 25, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Elevation Oncology, Inc. (Nasdaq: ELEV), an innovative oncology company focused on the discovery and development of selective cancer therapies to treat patients across a range of solid tumors with significant unmet medical needs, today announced that it will present preclinical data for its novel HER3 ADC, EO-1022, in a late-breaking poster presentation at the American Association for Cancer Research (AACR) Annual Meeting 2025, being held April 25-30 in Chicago, Illinois.
EO-1022 is an antibody drug conjugate (ADC) containing seribantumab, a fully human IgG2 anti-HER3 monoclonal antibody (mAb), which is site-specifically conjugated at glycan to the monomethyl auristatin E (MMAE) payload with a drug-to-antibody ratio (DAR) of 4. Elevation Oncology designed EO-1022, leveraging the advanced site-specific conjugation technology platform licensed from Synaffix B.V. Elevation Oncology is developing EO-1022 for the treatment of solid tumors that express HER3, including breast cancer and non-small cell lung cancer, and expects to file an IND application in 2026.
“We are eager to share the first preclinical data for EO-1022 at the AACR Annual Meeting,” said Joseph Ferra, President and Chief Executive Officer of Elevation Oncology. “With EO-1022, we are combining the most advanced site-specific conjugation technology platform with the clinically validated MMAE payload, which is widely used across ADC programs but has yet to be introduced into a HER3-targeting ADC in the clinic. We believe this unique combination will enable us to provide a new treatment option to patients with HER3-expressing solid tumors, including those who are refractory to other HER3-targeting agents in development. We look forward to advancing EO-1022 into clinical development next year.”
Details of the poster presentation at AACR 2025 are as follows:
Title: Preclinical discovery and characterization of EO-1022, a site-specific glycan-conjugated anti-HER3 vc-MMAE ADC for treating solid tumors
- Abstract Presentation Number: LB004
- Session Title: Late-Breaking Research: Experimental and Molecular Therapeutics 1
- Session Date and Time: Sunday, April 27, from 2 p.m. to 5 p.m. CT (3 p.m. to 6 p.m. ET)
- Location: Poster Section 50
The late-breaking abstract will become available on the AACR website beginning at 12:00 noon CT (1:00 p.m. ET) on April 25, 2025, and published in an online-only supplement to Cancer Research.
About EO-1022
Elevation Oncology is developing EO-1022, a potentially differentiated HER3 ADC for the treatment of HER3-expressing solid tumors, including breast cancer and non-small cell lung cancer. EO-1022 consists of seribantumab, a fully human IgG2 anti-HER3 antibody, site-specifically conjugated at glycan to the MMAE payload with a DAR of 4. It leverages seribantumab’s desirable internalization properties and advanced site-specific ADC technology which makes possible the use of the potent cytotoxic MMAE payload. Elevation Oncology expects to file an IND application in 2026.
