Up to 20 patients are likely to be enrolled in the Phase 1b phase of the CUE-101 monotherapy clinical study in patients with HPV+ second line and beyond (2L+) head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC). The evidence supporting the patient expansion has been positive thus far, with six patients in the dosage escalation Phase 1a phase of the CUE-101 monotherapy study having confirmed stable disease (SD) and one patient having confirmed the partial response of about 50% tumor reduction.

The Fc-fusion biologics of the CUE-100 family include peptide-MHC (pMHC) molecules as well as rationally designed IL-2 molecules. This one-of-a-kind biologic is expected to target, stimulate, and grow a large number of tumor-specific T cells directly in the patient.

Ken Pienta, acting chief medical officer of Cue Biopharma stated,

The CUE-101 monotherapy trial’s Part B patient expansion has begun, and they are extremely excited about it. They think that the results backing the selection of the cohort 6 dose of 4 mg/kg as a recommended Phase 2 dose provides them increasing confidence that CUE-101 might be a viable candidate for a registration-directed clinical trial as a single agent therapy for HPV+ 2L+ HNSCC.
