Turnstone Biologics Corp.

Turnstone Biologics develops new medicines to treat and cure patients with solid tumors. The company focuses on creating next-generation TIL therapies by selecting potent and tumor-reactive T cells for potential treatment across multiple solid tumors.

Turnstone Biologics

Turnstone Biologics is a clinical-stage biotechnology company developing a differentiated approach to treat and cure patients with solid tumors by pioneering selected tumor-infiltrating lymphocyte (Selected TIL) therapy. Turnstone’s next-generation TIL therapy is based upon the identification, selection and expansion of the most potent tumor-reactive T cells, known as Selected TILs, and is designed to overcome the limitations of first-generation bulk TIL that have demonstrated objective responses only in limited tumor types. Turnstone’s most advanced program, TIDAL-01, is currently being evaluated in multiple Phase 1 studies in patients with colorectal cancer, breast cancer, head and neck cancer, uveal melanoma, and cutaneous melanoma. The Company is also actively advancing its preclinical pipeline programs including TIDAL-02, its next Selected TIL program, and its TIDAL-01 and viral immunotherapy combination program.

Turnstone reported today positive initial clinical data from the Phase 1 STARLING trial of TIDAL-01 in metastatic colorectal cancer. 
 
Key highlights from the initial data include the following:
 
–       Overall response rate (“ORR”) of 25% and 50% disease control rate ("DCR") observed in first four evaluable patients treated with TIDAL-01 with advanced CRC 
–       Complete response achieved in heavily pre-treated late line patient with progression free survival extending beyond one year 
–       Favorable tolerability profile and demonstrated manufacturing success
–       Product characterization and translational data support biological hypothesis for Selected TILs
 
The ORR and DCR observed with TIDAL-01 compare favorably to the standard of care for this patient population, where current therapies report a 1-6% ORR and median progression free survival (“mPFS”) of 2.0-5.6 months, and support the continued development of TIDAL-01 for patients with metastatic CRC and other solid tumors.

Congratulations to Dr. Maria Parkhurst and the talented team at the NCI Center for Cancer Research's Surgery Branch on their recent Nature Medicine* publication in which they demonstrated objective clinical responses in metastatic MSS colorectal cancer patients treated with #Tcells engineered from tumor-reactive TCRs identified from selected #TILs. 
 
#CRC remains the second leading cause of cancer deaths in the U.S. Particularly dire is the significant unmet medical need for patients with metastatic MSS CRC, for whom immunotherapies have sadly shown little to no clinical benefit. At Turnstone Biologics, we believe the key to overcoming challenges in historically difficult-to-treat “cold” tumors is increasing the number of on-target #tumor-reactive T cells, a #differentiated approach which forms the foundation for our Selected TIL therapy. This paper provides further evidence supporting the potential in metastatic MSS CRC when selecting and enriching for tumor-reactive T cells, and we are working tirelessly to improve outcomes for people afflicted with the disease through the clinical development of our next-generation Selected TIL program, TIDAL-01.

*The findings were published July 11, 2024, in Nature Medicine (Nature Portfolio) -> https://lnkd.in/ectSPuCX.

It has officially been one year since Turnstone began trading as a public company, and what a year it has been.
 
As we look back on our achievements over the course of the past 12 months, we are extremely grateful for the relentless efforts and dedication of our incredible team, partners, collaborators, and all who have contributed to advancing our mission of expanding the frontiers of TIL therapy to solid tumor indications where we believe we can have the greatest impact on patients with our next-generation Selected TILs. 
 
We are proud to celebrate the one-year anniversary of our IPO and thank you to the wonderful team at Nasdaq for recognizing this milestone alongside everyone here at Turnstone. 
 
One year done, and we have only just begun.

Richly deserved.
 
Join us in congratulating Dr. Steven Rosenberg, Chief of the Surgery Branch at the National Cancer Institute in Bethesda, Maryland, for receiving the Award for Lifetime Achievement in Cancer Research from the American Association for Cancer Research, an award which honors an individual who has made significant fundamental contributions to cancer research. 

Amongst his countless accomplishments, Dr. Rosenberg led the first-ever clinical trials of TIL therapy, and his studies of cell transfer immunotherapy using tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes have resulted in durable complete remissions in patients with advanced solid cancers. 

We are grateful for Dr. Rosenberg’s vision and his tireless determination to meaningfully advance the field and to train generations of talented investigators, all of which enables the critical work we are undertaking with our Selected TIL programs.
