Akari Therapeutics (Nasdaq: AKTX) announced its SITC 40 abstract and presentations on November 7 and 9, 2025 describing preclinical immune mechanism data for its novel ADC payload PH1.
The company reports that a Trastuzumab–PH1 ADC produced higher rates of complete colon-tumor regressions versus a comparator microtubule-inhibitor ADC when combined with an anti‑PD‑1 checkpoint inhibitor. The PH1 combination is attributed to neoantigen-driven immune activation, antigen-presenting cell, B-cell and T-cell engagement, and expansion of tumor‑killing gamma‑delta T cells. Poster and oral presentation details and times are provided for the SITC Annual Meeting.

Akari Therapeutics (NASDAQ: AKTX) has announced promising preclinical data for its novel ADC spliceosome modulating payload, PH1, targeting hormone refractory prostate cancer. The data demonstrates PH1's ability to suppress AR-V7 receptor levels, which drives metastatic castration resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) progression.
The research showed PH1's effectiveness in both hormone-refractory and hormone-sensitive prostate cancer models. In hormone-sensitive cases, PH1 showed additive effects when combined with existing treatments like Xtandi and Erleada. This suggests potential for developing first-line combination therapies and addressing the significant unmet need in ARPI-resistant cases, where current treatment options are limited.
Akari Therapeutics (Nasdaq: AKTX) has filed a provisional patent application with the USPTO for its novel antibody drug conjugate (ADC) platform utilizing the spliceosome payload PH1 for cancer treatment. The patent covers the platform's unique mechanism of modulating alternative splicing within cancer cells.
The technology targets cancer cells' ability to hijack alternative splicing (AS) processes, which affects tumor formation, growth, and metastasis. The PH1 payload demonstrates potential in disrupting cancer cell survival mechanisms across multiple types of cancers, including those resistant to current therapies.
The patent strengthens Akari's intellectual property portfolio and supports the development of their ADC programs, including AKTX-101 (Trop2 ADC with PH1 payload) and AKTX-102 (undisclosed target).
