FDA grants Fast Track Designation for TUB-040 in Platinum-resistant Ovarian Cancer
“Tubulis announced today that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (“FDA”) has granted Fast Track designation to its lead antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) TUB-040 for the treatment of patients with platinum-resistant ovarian cancer. TUB-040 is a next-generation NaPi2b-targeting Exatecan ADC based on Tubulis’ proprietary P5 technology with superior biophysical properties that demonstrated effective and durable responses in a range of preclinical models, including ovarian cancer. The candidate is currently being evaluated in a multicenter Phase I/IIa study (NAPISTAR 1-01, NCT06303505) in patients with platinum-resistant high-grade ovarian cancer (PROC) or relapsed/refractory adenocarcinoma non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC), who have exhausted other available treatment options.”
