“During our first quarter of 2017, we made meaningful progress, advancing our Phase 3 registration clinical trial of Vicinium and continuing development efforts with Proxinium™ and VB6-845d,” said Stephen Hurly, president and chief executive officer of Eleven Biotherapeutics. “Importantly, we also presented new preclinical data supporting the potential of our locally- and systemically-administered drug candidates not just as monotherapies, but also in combination with immuno-oncology products, including checkpoint inhibitors. These results accord with our clinical development strategies, and we look forward to further exploring TPTs as new medicines with the potential to offer considerable improvements over existing options.”
