The dose optimization study, supported by a $17.6 million CPRIT grant, aims to determine optimal dosing for efficacy and safety in alignment with FDA's Project Optimus. The company expects to complete Cohort 1 enrollment by year-end and plans to present additional Phase 1 data at the SNO/ASCO CNS Metastases Conference in August 2025.
