FDA Clears IND Application for NST-628
“The significant majority of KRAS-, NRAS-, and BRAF-mutant tumors are not addressable by currently approved therapies, creating a pressing need for new medicines that provide superior, durable efficacy and tolerability for people living with these hard-to-treat cancers,” said Philip Komarnitsky, M.D., Ph.D., chief medical officer of Nested. “We believe that NST-628 has the potential to provide a differentiated clinical profile, including a superior therapeutic index and prevention of pathway reactivation, for patients with advanced solid tumors harboring RASMAPK pathway alterations. The IND clearance for NST-628 is an important step in the advancement of our first clinical-stage program, and with clinical trial sites already activated, we look forward to dosing the first patients in this trial in the first half of this year.”
