About CB307

CB307 is Crescendo’s lead clinical candidate, a first-in-class, half-life extended, CD137 x PSMA bispecific Humabody®, designed to deliver a safer and more durable anti-cancer T cell response.

CB307 conditionally activates only tumour-specific T cells, exclusively within the tumour microenvironment using the CD137 co-stimulatory mechanism. Its unique format enables potent, tumour-specific killing, while avoiding systemic toxicity and can be applied to a broad range of PSMA+ cancer indications to address a large unmet medical need.

Clinical development of CB307 is on track with the Phase 1b POTENTIA trial ongoing in adult patients with PSMA+ metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). POTENTIA (NCT04839991) is an open-label, dose escalation and cohort expansion study to assess the safety, tolerability and preliminary efficacy of CB307 as a monotherapy and in combination with pembrolizumab (KEYTRUDA®).
