Silexion Therapeutics Reports Strong Tumor Growth Reduction from Systemic Administration of SIL-204 in Preclinical Pancreatic Cancer Models

Cayman Islands, January 28, 2025 – Silexion Therapeutics Corp. (NASDAQ: SLXN) (“Silexion” or the “Company”), a clinical-stage biotechnology company pioneering RNA interference (RNAi) therapies for KRAS-driven cancers, today announced promising new preclinical data for SIL-204, its next-generation siRNA therapeutic candidate. The findings contribute to validating systemic administration as an effective delivery approach, demonstrating significant tumor growth reduction in orthotopic pancreatic cancer models, a platform designed to mimic human cancer progression.

This data underscores SIL-204’s potential to address one of the most aggressive and challenging cancers, validating its ability to target KRAS mutations systemically while achieving prolonged therapeutic activity.  While the current data shows robust tumor growth inhibition, further studies aim to evaluate its impact on metastases, which the Company is cautiously optimisic about.

The Company is actively exploring how this promising data can inform an expanded next-generation treatment strategy for KRAS-driven cancers and expects to announce details of its expanded development plan shortly.

Key Preclinical Data Highlights

  • SIL-204 administered in an extended release formulation reduced tumor growth by ~50% after 30 days, with ~50% of tumors showing complete necrosis, in human pancreatic tumors harboring a G12D mutation xenografted into mice.
  • SIL-204 administered subcutaneously inhibited tumor growth in mouse metastatic pancreatic orthotopic models.
  • A single systemic administration of SIL-204 maintained effective drug levels in rat plasma and tissues for over 56 days.
  • SIL-204 inhibits key oncogenic KRAS mutations, including G12D,  G12V, G12R, Q61H, and G13D.
  • Intratumoral administration of SIL-204 microparticles reduced tumor cell numbers by ~3-fold, tumor area by ~1.5-fold, and increased tumor necrosis by ~5-fold after 15 days in human pancreatic cancer xenograft harboring a KRAS G12V mutation in mice.

“We are thrilled to share these results, which showcase systemic administration as an effective method for targeting KRAS-driven cancers,” Mitchell Shirvan, Ph.D., CSO of Silexion. “By demonstrating robust tumor growth inhibition in a clinically relevant model, SIL-204 shows significant potential to address advanced cancers. We look forward to future studies evaluating its impact on metastatic progression.”
