BOSTON, June 13, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Sensei Biotherapeutics, Inc. (Nasdaq: SNSE), a clinical stage immuno-oncology company focused on the discovery and development of next-generation therapeutics for cancer patients, today announced that the Company will host a virtual KOL event, “A New Vista for Cancer Care: Exploring SNS-101’s Potential as a Transformative Treatment Option for Patients with Solid Tumors,” on Tuesday, June 27, 2023 at 2:00 p.m. ET.

The event will feature James Gulley, M.D., Ph.D., Co-Director of the Center for Immuno-Oncology at the National Cancer Institute (NCI), who will provide an overview of the unmet medical need in solid tumors and the current immuno-oncology treatment landscape, and discuss the potential for Sensei’s lead candidate, SNS-101, a conditionally active VISTA-blocking antibody, to improve treatment outcomes for patients with solid tumors.

Sensei management will provide insight into the preclinical mechanism and profile of SNS-101, and present an overview of the SNS-101 clinical program, including collaborating with the NCI as a site for the Phase 1/2 SNS-101 clinical trial. Sensei recently announced that the first patient has been dosed in the trial at a starting dose of 0.3 mg/kg.

About Sensei Biotherapeutics
Sensei Biotherapeutics (Nasdaq: SNSE) is a clinical stage immuno-oncology company focused on the discovery and development of next-generation therapeutics for cancer patients. Through its TMAb™ (Tumor Microenvironment Activated biologics) platform, Sensei develops conditionally active therapeutics designed to disable immunosuppressive signals or activate immunostimulatory signals selectively in the tumor microenvironment to unleash T cells against tumors. Sensei’s lead investigational candidate is SNS-101, a conditionally active antibody designed to block the V-domain Ig suppressor of T cell activation (VISTA) checkpoint selectively within the low pH tumor microenvironment, where VISTA acts as a suppressor of T cells by binding the receptor PSGL-1. The company is also developing SNS-102, a conditional binding monoclonal antibody targeting V-Set and Immunoglobulin Domain Containing 4 (VSIG-4), as well as SNS-103, also a conditionally active monoclonal antibody targeting ecto-nucleoside triphosphate diphosphohydrolase-1 (ENTPDase1), also known as CD39.
