AUSTIN, Texas and DURHAM, N.C., Aug. 11, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Shattuck Labs, Inc. (Shattuck or the Company) (NASDAQ: STTK), a clinical-stage biotechnology company pioneering the development of potential first-in-class monoclonal and bispecific DR3 blocking antibodies for the treatment of patients with inflammatory and immune-mediated diseases, today reported financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2026 and provided recent business highlights.
"The Phase 1 clinical data for SL-325 has checked all of the boxes and positions SL-325 as a potentially winning antibody in the TL1A/DR3 axis heading into Phase 2 clinical development," said Taylor Schreiber, M.D., Ph.D., Chief Executive Officer of Shattuck. "The RECEPTIVE-CD1 Phase 2b clinical trial in Crohn’s disease is on track to initiate in the third quarter, and is designed to establish the efficacy profile of SL-325 across three dose levels, both at induction and at maintenance time points. As we expected, clinical proof of concept for the TL1A/DR3 axis is now emerging outside of IBD. We are pleased to see this continued momentum for the class, and we believe that blocking DR3 will prove more efficacious than blocking TL1A across any indication where TL1A is implicated."
DR3 Program Development in 2026
Shattuck is advancing a pipeline of DR3-targeted monoclonal and bispecific antibody product candidates for the treatment of inflammatory and immune-mediated diseases.
Recent updates and anticipated upcoming milestones include:
SL-325
Shattuck’s lead clinical-stage product candidate, SL-325, is a potentially first-in-class DR3 blocking antibody for the treatment of Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis, and other inflammatory and immune-mediated diseases.
-
Phase 1 clinical trial results for SL-325 demonstrated a potentially best-in-mechanism profile. Key findings from the Phase 1 clinical trial include:
- Potentially best-in-mechanism immunogenicity profile, with only 3.7% of participants developing antidrug antibodies.
- Complete blockade of TL1A binding to DR3 for over 3 months expected at doses of 1 mg/kg and higher, potentially supporting quarterly maintenance dosing.
- Well tolerated with a favorable safety profile consistent with the TL1A inhibitor class.
- No evidence of DR3 agonism.
-
RECEPTIVE-CD1 Phase 2b clinical trial of SL-325 in patients with moderately-to-severely active Crohn's disease is expected to initiate in the third quarter of 2026.
- Designed as a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled Phase 2b clinical trial.
- Will evaluate three dose levels of SL-325 compared with placebo in approximately 232 patients, randomized 1:1:1:1
- Primary endpoint is endoscopic response at 12 weeks. These data are expected in the first half of 2028.
- Patients will continue SL-325 treatment through a maintenance phase to 50 weeks using a treat-through design. The treat-through design allows evaluation of the potential for accumulating efficacy during maintenance. Patients will be further eligible to participate in a long-term extension of this trial.
SL-846
Shattuck’s lead bispecific product candidate, SL-846, is a potentially first-in-class, half-life extended DR3 x IL-23 receptor blocking antibody for the treatment of inflammatory and immune-mediated diseases.
- SL-846 is currently being evaluated in an ongoing IND-enabling GLP toxicology study in non-human primates.
- Preclinical data for SL-846, including safety, pharmacokinetics, and receptor occupancy from the ongoing GLP toxicology study are expected to be presented in a poster at UEG Week, to be held October 17-20, 2026.
-

About SL-325
SL-325 is a potentially first-in-class Death Receptor 3 (DR3) blocking antibody designed to achieve a complete and durable blockade of the clinically validated DR3/TL1A pathway. Shattuck’s preclinical studies demonstrate high affinity binding and superior activity over TL1A antibodies, and offer a data-driven rationale for targeting the TNF receptor, DR3, versus its ligand, TL1A. SL-325 is a fully Fc-silenced, fully human immunoglobulin G monoclonal antibody. In a recently completed Phase 1 clinical trial, SL-325 demonstrated a favorable safety profile, a potentially best-in-mechanism immunogenicity profile, no evidence of residual DR3 agonism, and provided durable blockade of TL1A binding to DR3 at low doses. SL-325 will be evaluated in a Phase 2b clinical trial in Crohn’s disease patients, which is expected to initiate in the third quarter of 2026.
About SL-846
SL-846 is a potentially first-in-class Death Receptor 3 (DR3) by IL-23 receptor (IL-23R) blocking bispecific antibody designed to achieve complete and durable blockade of the clinically validated DR3/TL1A and IL-23/IL-23R pathways. Shattuck’s preclinical studies demonstrate high affinity binding to both DR3 and IL-23R, with equivalent or superior in vitro potency in comparison to benchmark IL-23 controls (sequence equivalents of risankizumab and icotrokinra) in a variety of preclinical assays. SL-846 is an Fc-silenced, half-life extended, fully human immunoglobulin G bispecific antibody currently being evaluated for safety, tolerability, immunogenicity, and pharmacodynamics in an IND-enabling GLP toxicology study in non-human primates.
