Akeso Reports AK135 Antibody Blocks Key Inflammatory Pathways and Relieves Neuropathy Pain in Preclinical Studies

Akeso Inc. has announced promising preclinical research results for its novel monoclonal antibody, AK135, which targets the IL-1 receptor accessory protein (IL-1RAP). The results were presented at the 40th Annual Meeting of the Society for Immunotherapy of Cancer $(SITC)$ in 2025. AK135 demonstrated high affinity for IL-1RAP and effectively blocked the IL-1, IL-33, and IL-36 pro-inflammatory signaling pathways in vitro, leading to reduced secretion of inflammatory cytokines. In animal models of chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy, AK135 provided significant, dose-dependent pain relief without notable toxicity. These findings suggest AK135 could offer a new treatment option for neuropathic pain in cancer patients.
