TITLE: ONM-501 ― A Synthetic Polyvalent STING Agonist for Cancer Immunotherapy

PRESENTER: Qintai Su, Ph.D.
DATE: October 5-6, 2021
LOCATION: Virtual

The development of ONM-501 represents a new concept in STING activation that could overcome the challenges observed with earlier STING agonists. ONM-501 encapsulates the endogenous STING agonist cGAMP with a proprietary micelle that induces polyvalent STING condensation and prolongs innate immune activation to offer dual ‘burst’ and ‘sustained’ STING activation for a potential highly effective immunotherapy against cancer.
