• Phase 2 clinical trial of SL-325 in patients with Crohn’s disease expected to initiate in the third quarter of 2026 –

AUSTIN, Texas and DURHAM, N.C., May 07, 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 first quarter ended March 31, 2026 and provided recent business highlights.

“We are pleased to have completed enrollment in our Phase 1 clinical trial of SL-325, and are looking forward to sharing a comprehensive data set on all single ascending dose and multiple ascending dose cohorts from this study in the second quarter of 2026, including safety and tolerability, pharmacokinetics, receptor occupancy, duration of receptor occupancy, pharmacodynamics, and immunogenicity data,” said Taylor Schreiber, M.D., Ph.D., Chief Executive Officer of Shattuck.

DR3 Program Development in 2026

Shattuck’s lead product candidate, SL-325, is a potentially first-in-class and best-in-mechanism DR3 blocking antibody for the treatment of Crohn’s disease, ulcerative colitis, and other inflammatory and immune-mediated diseases. Recent updates and anticipated upcoming milestones for SL-325, and Shattuck’s other DR3 blocking antibodies, include:

• The Phase 1 trial evaluating the safety, tolerability, immunogenicity, and pharmacokinetics (PK) of SL-325 in healthy volunteers is ongoing and will determine the recommended Phase 2 dose and dosing schedule.
  • Enrollment of all six single-ascending dose cohorts and all three multiple-ascending dose cohorts of the trial is now complete, with participant follow-up, data collection, and data analysis ongoing.
  • Shattuck plans to present safety and tolerability, PK, receptor occupancy, duration of receptor occupancy, pharmacodynamics, and immunogenicity data from this trial in the second quarter of 2026.
• Subject to positive Phase 1 data and regulatory alignment, Shattuck expects to initiate a Phase 2 clinical trial of SL-325 in patients with Crohn’s disease in the third quarter of 2026.
• Shattuck continues to develop multiple DR3-based bispecific antibodies. Shattuck’s lead bispecific antibody has entered IND-enabling activities. This bispecific antibody was designed to inhibit both the DR3/TL1A axis and another biologically relevant target for the treatment of patients with inflammatory and immune-mediated diseases. Shattuck plans to disclose the targets of its lead bispecific product candidate, supporting preclinical data, and expected development timelines in the second quarter of 2026.

About SL-325

SL-325 is a potential 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, humanized immunoglobulin G monoclonal antibody with a favorable safety profile in non-human primates, currently being evaluated in a Phase 1 clinical trial.
