IDEAYA Biosciences Enters Exclusive License with Hengrui Pharma for SHR-4849, a Novel Ph 1 DLL3 Topo-I-Payload ADC Targeting SCLC and NET Solid Tumors
“There is significant unmet medical need in DLL3-expressing solid tumors, and we are excited by the opportunity to develop SHR-4849, which has monotherapy potential in SCLC and NETs. SHR-4849 is competitively well positioned with first-in-class potential in the DLL3 topo-I-payload ADC field, a therapeutic area that has demonstrated preliminary monotherapy clinical validation in SCLC,” said Yujiro S. Hata, Chief Executive Officer and Founder, IDEAYA Biosciences. “In addition, SHR-4849 accelerates IDEAYA’s strategic objective to develop rational clinical combinations of topo-payload based ADCs with our PARG inhibitor IDE161, where we observe enhanced preclinical combination efficacy versus evaluated topo-payload ADCs alone,” said Daniel A. Simon, Chief Business Officer, IDEAYA Biosciences.
