In a June 2015 presentation Novartis management indicated that 'dosing is imminent' for the first clinical trials of LAG525.[1]

LAG525's first clinical trial is a Phase I in expected to be in patients with various solid tumors, in combination with PDR001, an anti-PD-1 monoclonal antibody. (ClinicalTrials.gov identifier NCT02460224).
