Aakash Desai: The Landscape of Bispecific Antibodies in Solid Tumors

Aakash Desai, Associate Director, Phase 1 and Precision Oncology Program at UAB O’Neal Comprehensive Cancer Center, shared a post on X about a recent paper he co-authored with colleagues published in Wiley Online Library:

“Bispecific antibodies (BsAbs) in solid tumors are rapidly reshaping oncology.

Our pipeline analysis using Larvol CLIN shows:

  • 681 trials, 183 BsAbs ( doubled since 2019)
  • Heavy focus on GI, lung, breast and GYN cancers
  • Dominant targets: PD1–CTLA4 (32%), PD1–VEGF, EGFR–MET
  • Only 38% of trials biomarker-selected
  • Innovation largely driven by biotech, not big pharma.”
