IDEAYA Nominates IDE034, a B7H3/PTK7 Topo-I-Payload Bispecific ADC and Option Exercise with Biocytogen

“We are pleased to nominate development candidate IDE034, a promising potential first-in class B7H3/PTK7 topo-I-payload bispecific ADC, which has demonstrated robust monotherapy tumor regressions in multiple preclinical models. The co-expression of B7H3/PTK7 in several solid tumors, including double-digit percent prevalence in lung, colorectal, and head and neck cancers, highlights the potential addressable market, both as monotherapy and in combination with PARG inhibitor IDE161,” said Michael White, Ph.D., Chief Scientific Officer of IDEAYA Biosciences. “We are excited to nominate our 6th development candidate in IDE034 and this program achieves several strategic objectives for IDEAYA, including the potential for monotherapy activity, application in multiple priority solid tumor types of lung and colorectal cancer, and the ability to enable wholly-owned rational combinations with our internal pipeline,” said Yujiro S. Hata, Chief Executive Officer and Founder, IDEAYA Biosciences.

“We are pleased to evaluate the clinical combination of IDE892 with RG6505 in MTAP-deleted RAS-mutant PDAC,” said Yujiro S. Hata, President and Chief Executive Officer, IDEAYA Biosciences. “This collaboration aligns with our broader clinical strategy to evaluate rational combinations with assets in our MTAP-deletion portfolio, and there remains especially high

“In the first reported data from the clinical combinations of our PRMT5 inhibitor vopimetostat and RAS(ON) inhibitors, we saw extremely encouraging early results, with 92% of patients with PDAC in the vopimetostat plus daraxonrasib arm achieving an objective response, supporting the preclinical data showing synergistic activity of PRMT5 + RAS

“Non-small cell lung cancer is the most prevalent lung disease with more than 8,000 patients in the U.S. diagnosed each year with KRAS G12D-mutations. Receiving Fast Track designation for VS-7375 reinforces both the significant unmet need and the potential of VS-7375 to improve outcomes for patients with KRAS G12D-mutated lung

“KRAS has notoriously been considered an undruggable target and patients with KRAS-driven cancers continue to face limited treatment options with survival measured in months, not years,” said John Reed, M.D., Ph.D., Executive Vice President, Innovative Medicine, Research & Development, Johnson & Johnson. “We believe the proprietary Firelink™ platform will overcome
