Jacobio's Preclinical Results of KRAS G12C Inhibitor in Combination with SHP2 Inhibitor Will be Presented at the ESMO Asia Congress 2022

BEIJING, SHANGHAI and BOSTON, Dec. 1, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Jacobio Pharma (1167.HK) will present the results of KRAS G12C inhibitor JAB-21822 as a single agent or in combination with SHP2 inhibitor JAB-3312 in preclinical cancer models in a poster session during the 2022 European Society of Medical Oncology ASIA (ESMO ASIA) Congress from December 2, 2022 to December 4, 2022.

The results of preclinical study showed that JAB-21822 in combination with JAB-3312 could synergistically inhibit tumor growth in multiple KRAS G12C inhibitor-resistant models, suggesting that the combination of JAB-21822 and JAB-3312 may overcome adaptive resistance to KRAS G12C inhibitor in cancer patients. Jacobio is currently conducting a clinical trial of JAB-21822 in combination with JAB-3312 (ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT05288205).
