Preliminary monotherapy data is expected in mid-2022, and combination therapy (with pembrolizumab) data is expected in the second half of 2022[62](index=62&type=chunk)[86](index=86&type=chunk) - In a preclinical mouse model, XTX101 at a **0.3 mg/kg dose** achieved a similar anti-tumor response and complete response (CR) rate as an ipilimumab analog at a **3.0 mg/kg dose**, suggesting a **10-fold increase in potency**[75](index=75&type=chunk) - Preclinical data indicated tumor-selective activity, with XTX101 increasing CD8+ T cells and decreasing Tregs within the tumor without a corresponding increase in CD4+ T cells in the blood, unlike the ipilimumab analog which showed systemic activity[79](index=79&type=chunk)[80](index=80&type=chunk) [Cytokine Programs](index=21&type=section&id=Cytokine%20Programs) The company's cytokine programs aim to develop tumor-selective versions of potent cytokines to overcome their historical toxicity limitations - **XTX202 (IL-2):** A Phase 1/2 trial was initiated in January 2022 for patients with solid tumors, with preliminary data expected in the second half of 2022. The program targets RCC and melanoma[95](index=95&type=chunk)[139](index=139&type=chunk) - **XTX202 Preclinical Results:** In mouse models, XTX202 demonstrated comparable tumor growth inhibition to aldesleukin and a non-masked IL-2 at their maximum tolerated doses, but without the associated systemic toxicities like vascular leak syndrome (VLS), splenomegaly, or body weight loss[121](index=121&type=chunk)[122](index=122&type=chunk)[127](index=127&type=chunk) - **XTX301 (IL-12):** The company plans to submit an IND to the FDA in the second half of 2022. Preclinical studies showed the molecule was well-tolerated in NHPs at doses at least **50-fold higher** than a non-masked IL-12 control[150](index=150&type=chunk)[157](index=157&type=chunk)[169](index=169&type=chunk) - **XTX401 (IL-15):** Currently in preclinical IND-enabling studies. Preclinical data showed tumor-selective activation of NK and NKT cells in the tumor without systemic expansion in the blood[170](index=170&type=chunk)[178](index=178&type=chunk)[179](index=179&type=chunk) [Competition, IP, and Manufacturing](index=37&type=section&id=Competition%2C%20IP%2C%20and%20Manufacturing) Xilio faces substantial competition from major pharmaceutical and biotech companies developing various immuno-therapies, including specific competitors in the anti-CTLA-4, IL-2, IL-12, and IL-15 spaces - The company faces competition from established and developing therapies, including Yervoy (ipilimumab) for anti-CTLA-4 and Proleukin (aldesleukin) for IL-2, as well as numerous companies with programs in development for CTLA-4, IL-2, IL-12, and IL-15[189](index=189&type=chunk)[191](index=191&type=chunk)[192](index=192&type=chunk) - As of February 15, 2022, the company's patent portfolio consists of **11 owned, co-owned, or exclusively licensed patent application families**. Patents issuing from these applications are expected to expire between **2037 and 2042**[195](index=195&type=chunk)[197](index=197&type=chunk) - Material license agreements include a cross-license with AskGene for IL-2 and IL-15 technology, an exclusive license from City of Hope for the anti-CTLA-4 program, and an exclusive license from WuXi Biologics for anti-CTLA-4 mAb technology[217](index=217&type=chunk)[224](index=224&type=chunk)[227](index=227&type=chunk) - The company relies on third-party contract manufacturers for all clinical and potential commercial supply of its product candidates and does not own or operate its own manufacturing facilities[231](index=231&type=chunk) [Government Regulation](index=44&type=section&id=Government%20Regulation) The company's operations are subject to extensive regulation by the FDA in the United States and comparable authorities abroad, covering research, development, testing, manufacturing, and marketing - The company must navigate a multi-step regulatory process with the FDA, including preclinical testing, filing an Investigational New Drug (IND) application, and conducting Phase 1, 2, and 3 clinical trials before submitting a Biologics License Application (BLA) for marketing approval[235](index=235&type=chunk)[237](index=237&type=chunk)[244](index=244&type=chunk) - The company's biologic products may be eligible for **12 years of regulatory exclusivity** in the U.S. under the BPCIA, which would prevent the FDA from approving a biosimilar version during that period[288](index=288&type=chunk)[290](index=290&type=chunk) - Operations are subject to various healthcare laws, including the federal Anti-Kickback Statute, False Claims Act, HIPAA, and the Physician Payments Sunshine Act, which regulate interactions with healthcare providers and third-party payors[301](index=301&type=chunk)[576](index=576&type=chunk) - The company is subject to complex data privacy regulations globally, such as the GDPR in Europe and the CCPA/CPRA in California, which govern the collection, use, and transfer of personal data, including health information from clinical trials[315](index=315&type=chunk)[313](index=313&type=chunk) [Risk Factors](index=59&type=section&id=Item%201A.%20Risk%20Factors) This section details numerous risks that could materially affect the company's business, financial condition, and results of operations - **Financial Risks:** The company has a history of significant operating losses (**$75.8 million in 2021**) and expects to incur more. It will require substantial additional funding to complete development, and failure to raise capital could force delays or elimination of programs[328](index=328&type=chunk)[333](index=333&type=chunk) - **Development and Clinical Risks:** The business is highly dependent on the success of its early-stage product candidates (XTX101, XTX202). The GPS platform is unproven in humans, and preclinical results may not translate to clinical trials. Trials may be delayed or halted due to enrollment difficulties, safety issues, or unfavorable results[347](index=347&type=chunk)[358](index=358&type=chunk)[360](index=360&type=chunk) - **Third-Party Reliance:** The company relies on third-party Contract Manufacturing Organizations (CMOs) for all manufacturing, which is complex and subject to regulatory oversight and potential disruptions. It also relies on Contract Research Organizations (CROs) to conduct clinical trials[397](index=397&type=chunk)[416](index=416&type=chunk) - **Commercial and IP Risks:** The company faces substantial competition from well-resourced companies. Its ability to successfully commercialize products depends on obtaining and maintaining broad patent protection, which is uncertain.
