IOA-244 is a novel phosphoinositide 3-kinase delta inhibitor with an unprecedented preclinical and clinical profile currently being investigated in Part B of the DIONE-01 trial. DIONE-01 is a two-part, first-in-human dose study evaluating IOA-244 in solid tumors and hematologic malignancies. Data from the first part of the study will be presented at ESMO-IO via a poster entitled “First-in-human, pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic  study of IOA-244, a phosphoinositide 3-kinase delta inhibitor, in patients with advanced metastatic mesothelioma, uveal and cutaneous melanoma”.

IOA-289 will be the first autotaxin inhibitor to be clinically investigated in oncology. It is currently being evaluated in healthy volunteers as a preparatory study to a subsequent Phase I clinical study in pancreatic cancer. The poster presentation at ESMO-IO is entitled “Translating a novel autotaxin inhibitor from preclinical proof of concept in pancreatic cancer to a biomarker response in human subjects”.
