ICVB-1042, IconOVir’s lead product candidate, is a potent, replicative and systemically available OV. In preclinical studies, ICVB-1042 demonstrated superior potency and selectivity compared to wildtype adenovirus (Ad) and other clinical-stage Ad-based oncolytic viruses, with potent lytic replication in cancer cell lines across a broad range of tumor types. IconOVir is developing both intravenous (IV) and intratumoral (IT) formulations of ICVB-1042 and plans to advance into Phase 1 studies evaluating IV-administered ICVB-1042 in solid tumors in the first half of 2023.
