SD-101 is in clinical development and has not been approved in the US or globally.
SD-101, an investigational agent in development, is a toll-like receptor 9 (TLR9) agonist which is believed to bind to the TLR9 receptors found on suppressive immune cells including myeloid-derived suppressor cells (MDSCs), antigen-presenting immune cells and other immune cells. Toll-like receptors play a key role in the innate immune system and create a bridge to adaptive immunity.1 It is believed that activating TLR9 primes immune cells to promote anti-tumor T-cell function.1,2
Traditionally, TLR9 agonists like SD-101 have not been administered intravenously but by direct injection into superficial tumors, making treatment of tumors in deep locations, like the liver and pancreas, difficult. TriSalus will utilize its proprietary Pressure-Enabled Drug Delivery™ (PEDD™) method for intravascular regional delivery of SD-101 to reach these locations.
By infusing SD-101 via our technology, we can administer it to visceral organs and directly to the site of disease. The goal of this approach is to enhance SD-101’s therapeutic index, increase anti-tumor immune activity intended to slow tumor progression and restore, enable or improve responses to immunotherapies for treatment of liver metastases and pancreatic cancer.
Our intravascular regional delivery technology overcomes physical barriers to delivery.
TriSalus will initially evaluate SD-101 for the treatment of uveal melanoma with liver metastases, hepatocellular carcinoma and intrahepatic cholangiocarcinoma. We intend to develop additional programs looking at a combination of SD-101 and other immuno-oncology agents delivered with Pressure-Enabled Drug Delivery™ (PEDD™) in a range of liver and pancreatic cancers for which limited therapeutic options exist.
We are committed to developing treatments to improve outcomes for patients with liver and pancreatic tumors.
