“This transformational financing is a significant commitment by top-tier biotech investors who believe in the potential of APR1-1051 to impact the lives of cancer patients,” said Oren Gilad, Ph.D., President and CEO of Aprea. “We believe the proceeds will accelerate the advancement of the ongoing ACESOT-1051 study. Our immediate goal is to expand evaluation of APR-1051 in biologically selected tumor populations where we believe WEE1 inhibition may have meaningful therapeutic relevance. We plan to enroll at least 50 patients with uterine serous carcinoma (USC) and cyclin E-overexpressing, platinum-resistant ovarian cancer (PROC). We believe this strategy will sharpen the clinical development path for APR-1051 and accelerate insight generation in biomarker-defined patient populations most likely to benefit from WEE1 inhibition.”
