WALTHAM,
Mass., Feb. 19, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Spyre
Therapeutics, Inc. (NASDAQ: SYRE) (the "Company" or "Spyre"), a
clinical-stage biotechnology company advancing best-in-class
antibody engineering, dose optimization, and rational therapeutic
combinations for the treatment of Inflammatory Bowel Disease
("IBD") and other immune-mediated diseases, today announced a
poster presentation at the 20th Congress of the European
Crohn's and Colitis Organisation (ECCO), held February 19-22, 2025, in Berlin, Germany, showing that combined
inhibition of α4β7 integrin and TL1A cytokine is superior to either
monotherapy in mouse models of colitis and coadministration
demonstrates no drug-drug effects on exposure in non-human primates
(NHPs).
"We are thrilled to share these recent preclinical findings
supporting the combination potential for our SPY120 program
(anti-α4β7 and anti-TL1A). We tested mouse surrogates of SPY120 in
two in vivo models of IBD, demonstrating that combined
inhibition of the α4β7 integrin and TL1A cytokine provide additive
or greater than additive efficacy relative to inhibition of either
target alone," said Andy Spencer,
PhD, SVP of Preclinical R&D at Spyre. "Further, the
pharmacokinetic profiles of our SPY001 and SPY002 antibodies in
NHPs were similar when dosed as monotherapies or in combination,
indicating the potential for quarterly or twice-annual dosing of
SPY120 in humans. Together, these results demonstrate the potential
for SPY120 to have best-in-indication efficacy and convenience in
IBD, complementing our previously disclosed preclinical results for
SPY130 (anti-α4β7 and anti-IL-23) and SPY230 (anti-TL1A and
anti-IL-23). We look forward to testing all three potential
best-in-indication combinations in our Phase 2 trial in ulcerative
colitis patients which is expected to begin mid-year."
The poster will be available for viewing during the ECCO
Congress beginning on February 19,
2025, and details are as follows:
Title: Combined inhibition of TL1A and integrin β7 is
