Xilio Therapeutics, an enterprise at the clinical-trial phase in the biotech sector, is committed to the innovation and development of therapies for immuno-oncology that are activated by tumors. Utilizing a unique, proprietary platform that initiates tumor activation, Xilio is engineering a suite of groundbreaking, tumor-specific agents such as antibodies, cytokines, bispecific molecules, and cell engaging compounds. These agents are crafted to refine the therapeutic index and concentrate therapeutic actions within the tumor's localized environment.

"Xilio's cutting-edge technology for tumor activation is a strategic fit with Gilead's efforts in advancing treatments for challenging cancer types and intensifies our immersion in the realm of immuno-oncology," expressed Bill Grossman, MD, PhD, Senior Vice President at Gilead Sciences, overseeing Oncology Clinical Development. "There's a significant promise seen in IL-12 for addressing various forms of cancer, and we're poised to collaborate with Xilio on the development of XTX301, which is a novel tumor-specific IL-12, both as an independent and a combinatorial therapy for multiple solid tumor classes."

"Partnering with Gilead, a company that is confident in our tumor-targeting approach and their comprehensive clinical and commercial experience in pioneering immuno-oncology treatments, will undoubtedly propel the progress and reach of XTX301, our tumor-specific IL-12 variant," stated René Russo, Pharm.D., President and CEO of Xilio. "Working jointly with Gilead, we are eager to explore XTX301's capability to offer substantial relief to a spectrum of cancer types, particularly those that are immunologically unresponsive ‘cold’ tumors, and to subvert the traditionally severe side effects associated with IL-12."

XTX301 is an investigative, tumor-specific IL-12 therapeutic, crafted to robustly incite anti-tumor immune responses and transform the tumor microenvironment, particularly inducing a shift in immunologically inert "cold" tumors to a more reactive or "hot" state. Currently, Xilio is in the process of determining the safety and feasibility of XTX301 as a singular treatment in patients with advanced iterations of solid tumors. This investigational phase is part of a first-for-human, multi-site, non-restricted Phase 1 clinical evaluation.
