- Ongoing Phase 1 and Phase 2 trials for ELI-002, a novel cancer vaccine targeting mutant KRAS-driven tumors.
- The publication of promising preclinical and clinical data which demonstrate the AMP platform's potential in enhancing T cell responses and eradicating solid tumors.
Financial updates reveal continued investment in clinical trials and research, with expenses reflecting the company's robust R&D initiatives. Partnerships with renowned institutions like the University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center further bolster Elicio's research capabilities.
Looking forward, Elicio plans to advance its development pipeline, including the ELI-002 7P Phase 2 trial as a monotherapy for patients with pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC). The company remains committed to pioneering new cancer treatments and improving patient outcomes.

Elicio Therapeutics reported preliminary data from its AMPLIFY-7P Phase 1a study of ELI-002 7P, an investigational therapeutic cancer vaccine. Administered as a monotherapy at the Phase 2 dose of 4.9mg AMP-peptide, ELI-002 7P shows promising disease-free survival (DFS) data in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma patients.
As of May 24, 2024, the study includes 14 patients with minimal residual disease and a median follow-up of 29.1 weeks. The median DFS has not been reached for patients receiving the 4.9mg dose, compared to 12.6 weeks for those on the 1.4mg dose. Patients showing tumor biomarker reduction and strong T cell response had no progression events, whereas those without biomarker response had a median DFS of 11.0 weeks.
Elicio plans further updates on the AMPLIFY Phase 1 trials later in 2024, with a Phase 2 interim analysis expected in Q1 2025.
