of therapies that are designed to harness the body's natural immune system for the treatment of patients with challenging diseases.
Aduro’s product candidates in the Stimulator of Interferon Genes (STING) and A Proliferation Inducing Ligand (APRIL) pathways are
being investigated in cancer, autoimmune and inflammatory diseases. ADU-S100 (MIW815), which potentially activates the
intracellular STING receptor for a potent tumor-specific immune response, is being evaluated in patients with cutaneously
accessible metastatic solid tumors or lymphomas. BION-1301, a fully blocking monoclonal antibody that blocks APRIL binding to both
the BCMA and TACI receptors, is being evaluated in multiple myeloma and as a potential treatment for IgA nephropathy. Aduro is
collaborating with a number of leading global pharmaceutical companies to help expand and drive its product pipeline. For more
