CICL-207

Literature evidence · DC67515

Formulation & Performance

The source directly names CICL-207 and the F50 nanoparticle composition. Reporter expression, immune-cell outcomes and rat tolerability are documented separately; none establishes clinical efficacy or an intrinsic effect of the neat lipid.

Patent Example 17 identifies CICL-207 with a (2S,4R) pyrrolidine core and four nonanoate tails. The structure shown here follows that identity, with formula C56H100N2O14 and calculated average molecular weight 1025.416.

The patent describes F50 as a five-lipid system with a targeting ligand in the immune-cell studies. DSG-PEG2000 is a distinct ingredient from DMG-PEG2000. Ingredient names are provided for source identification; antibody-bearing and undecorated particles must be distinguished when interpreting biological results.

Reporter delivery in mice

EndpointReported findingEvidence limit
Splenic T-cell reporter expressionThe patent describes effective expression in the tested targeted nanoparticle contextFigure 2; qualitative comparison, no independently extracted cell-percentage claim
Comparison with CICL-1 formulationF50 and F9 showed broadly similar performance in the evaluated cell typesExample 66; comparisons must retain their complete formulation context
Organ expressionThe CICL-207 targeted formulation showed lower liver reporter expression than BF1 comparators while retaining spleen expressionExample 70, Figure 8; reporter signal is not the percentage of lipid reaching an organ

US20250127728A1, Examples 66 and 70; Figures 2 and 8. Do not convert luminescence into tissue concentration or percent injected dose.

Immune-cell research findings

Study contextReported outcomeBoundary
Humanized mouse T-cell studyF50 and F9 showed comparable CAR-expression readouts and B-cell depletion in the reported short observation windowExample 69, Figure 7; research evidence for complete targeted nanoparticles
Humanized hematopoietic-cell modelThe patent reports functional delivery to human hematopoietic-cell populationsExample 71, Figures 9–11; distinct targeting context from the T-cell study

These preclinical studies do not establish efficacy of unformulated CICL-207 or clinical suitability.

Tolerability observations

ModelObservationLimitation
Male Sprague-Dawley rats; undecorated F50Minimal liver-enzyme increases were reported; acute-phase proteins were mildly elevatedExample 72, Figure 12
Inflammatory readoutsCytokine elevations were transient and resolved by 24 hours in the patent assessmentNo numerical source-data file or independent repeat study was available
Clinical observationsThe patent reports no associated clinical observations in the evaluated experimentShort-term formulation-specific evidence; not a general claim of no toxicity

Example 72. The undecorated rat formulation must not be substituted for the antibody-decorated immune-cell formulations when summarizing safety.
