FDA Clears IND Application for FAP-Exatecan (AVA6103)
Christina Coughlin, MD, PhD, Chief Executive Officer at Avacta Therapeutics commented, “Taking FAP-Exd into the clinic is a critical milestone for the pre|CISION® platform and for the Company. In moving the FAP-Exd program forward from inception to a cleared IND in just 24 months, our team has exceeded industry standard timelines.

We are very excited to move this program forward for patients and shareholders alike.”
