FDA clears the IND to proceed to Ph 1b clinical trial with AKY-251
“Aktis was founded to improve outcomes for cancer patients by pioneering a new class of targeted radiopharmaceuticals for prevalent tumor types that have historically been beyond the reach of this modality,” said Matthew Roden, Ph.D., President and Chief Executive Officer of Aktis Oncology. “We continue to make significant progress on all fronts of our plan, including advancing the enrollment of our Phase 1b clinical trial of AKY-1189 in patients with Nectin-4 expressing tumors, which was granted FDA Fast Track designation in February, as well as the recent clearance of our IND applications for AKY-2519. We are excited to accelerate the AKY-2519 program to patients in need of improved treatment options, and now expect to commence a Phase 1b trial of AKY-2519 in mid-2026. This momentum, together with our proprietary miniprotein radioconjugate platform, supply chain infrastructure, and strong cash position, strengthens our leadership in targeted radiopharmaceuticals.”
