Moving Beyond Injectables: SOR102 Shows Promise as an Oral Dual-Inhibitor for Ulcerative Colitis

Highlights

  • SOR102 is a novel oral bispecific antibody targeting both Tumor Necrosis Factor (TNF) and Interleukin-23 (IL-23) p19.
  • The Phase 1 trial demonstrated that SOR102 is well-tolerated in both healthy volunteers and patients with mildly-to-severely active ulcerative colitis.
  • Preliminary efficacy data in Part 3 showed a 56% clinical response rate in the twice-daily SOR102 group compared to 17% in the placebo group by day 42.
  • Oral delivery of SOR102 offers the potential for high local gut concentrations with minimal systemic exposure, potentially reducing systemic side effects common in parenteral biologics.
