2014 EORTC: Epigenetic immunomodulation by SGI-110 combined with immune check-point blockade

/in , ,

Summary

Background: SGI-110 is a dinucleo- SGI-110 tide of decitabine (DAC) and deoxyguanosine formulated as a small volume SQ injection that extends DAC exposure compared to DAC IV. Our in
vitro and in vivo evidence identified a strong immunomodulatory activity of SGI-110 on human cancer cells of different histotype and on human melanoma xenografts. We also showed a remarkable anti-tumor effect once combined with anti-CTLA-4 mAb in a syngeneic mouse model. In this study we evaluated the contribution of antitumor immune responses in the reduction of tumor growth achieved by this therapeutic combination.
