OGP: A CB2 Agonist Enhancing CAR-T Therapy
CAR-T therapies show promising clinical responses, yet many patients relapse due to the immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment (TME). Multiple Myeloma remains largely incurable.
OUR SOLUTION
Osteogenic growth peptide (OGP), a selective CB2 agonist, enhances anti-tumor immunity by reducing immunosuppressive myeloid cells and boosting cytotoxic T-cell activity. In preclinical studies, OGP demonstrated synergistic activity with CAR-T therapy, leading to improved tumor control and survival. In collaboration with Dr. Anat Globerson-Levin from Tel Aviv- Sourasky University Medical Center Ichilov.
Key Advantages
- Increases survival
- Reduces tumor number and size
- Decreases tumor-promoting myeloid cells and alleviates the immunosuppressive tumor microenvironment (TME)
- Enhances anti-tumor CD8+ T cells
- Supported by human CNR2 genetic data
Potential Applications
- Multiple Myeloma
- Additional cancers with immunosuppressive TMEs
- Combination therapies with CAR-T and other immunotherapies
Stage of Development
- Preclinical proof-of-concept in vivo and in vitro
- Supporting human genetic evidence
