A phase II basket study of MCLA-128, a bispecific antibody targeting the HER3 pathway, in NRG1 fusion-positive advanced solid tumours

Background null NRG1 fusions are oncogenic drivers across various cancers. NRG1 fusion proteins bind to HER3, leading to HER2/HER3 heterodimerization, increased downstream signaling, and tumor growth. Clinical responses to anti-HER3 antibodies or HER2 tyrosine kinase inhibitors have been reported. In contrast to these agents, MCLA-128 is a HER2/HER3 bispecific antibody that blocks both NRG1 binding and HER2/3 dimerization. MCLA-128 has...
