Overview

LM-299 is an investigational bispecific antibody designed to target both programmed cell death protein-1 (PD-1) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF). By simultaneously inhibiting the PD-1/PD-L1 immune checkpoint pathway and the VEGF/VEGFR angiogenesis pathway, LM-299 aims to enhance anti-tumor immunity while suppressing tumor blood vessel formation. The molecule features a differentiated design with an anti-VEGF antibody linked to two C-terminal single domain anti-PD-1 antibodies. Developed initially by LaNova Medicines Ltd., Merck has acquired exclusive global rights for its development, manufacturing, and commercialization. As of late 2024, LM-299 is in Phase 2 clinical trials for advanced solid tumors in China, with plans for further trials in the United States[1][2][3][5][6].
