Fresh NSCLC patient - derived biopsy was cultured as 250um slices, treated for 96hr, fixed, and H&E slides were blindly scored for response based on cell viability and damage to the cancerous tissue according to pathological criteria. A scale of 0 – 100 was created with a score of 0 representing completely viable cancer tissue and a score of 100 representing no viable cancer cells. The analysis included functional (cell death) score of response (cResponse) using propri eta ry artificial intelligence (AI) algorithm (Curesponse). • Tribody induces cytotoxicity at pM EC 50 against NSCLC A 549 cells • Up to 20 - fold more potent than the bi - specific CD 3 x 5 T 4 • Cell killing validated on multiple 5 T 4 + cell lines (MDA - MB - 231 , HCT 116 , NCI - H 226 ) CD3x5T4xNKG2A CD 3 x 5 T 4 Increased cytotoxicity with tribody format EC 50 tribody: 0.003 nM EC 50 bispecific: 0.066 nM POC: NKG 2 A arm contributes substantially to tumor cell killing and synergizes with the CD 3 Arm
