Allakos: results from  AK006 trial, showing ‘high receptor occupancy’ in cells

Allakos announced positive results from the single and multiple ascending Phase 1 study of intravenous I AK006 in healthy volunteers. AK006 is a Siglec-6 monoclonal antibody that selectively inhibits mast cells. Inappropriate activation of mast cells has been identified as a pathogenic driver of multiple diseases, including chronic spontaneous urticaria, food allergy and asthma.Phase 1 Study Results: Single and multiple IV doses of AK006 up to 720 mg were well tolerated with a favorable safety profile. AK006 showed dose linear exposure and with an estimated half-life of 21 days for the 720 mg IV dose…AK006 achieved serum concentrations consistent with those showing mast cell inhibition in preclinical experiments
