- MDNA11 treatment in Cohort 4 (comprised of two step-up doses of 30 µg/kg followed by fixed doses of 60 µg/kg every two weeks) was not associated with any dose-limiting toxicities.
- The Safety Review Committee has approved dose escalation for Cohort 5 to the 90 µg/kg dose every two weeks following two priming doses at 30 µg/kg.
- Significant increases in eosinophil count from baseline were not observed with MDNA11 treatment.

- The first imaging scans in the remaining four patients enrolled at the 60 µg/kg dose are expected in September.
