IND Clearance for HWK-007 and IND Submission for HWK-016 Announced
“These are important regulatory and execution milestones, underscoring the strength of our preclinical data and our ability to advance multiple programs in parallel,” said Dave Lennon, PhD, President and CEO of Whitehawk Therapeutics. “At Whitehawk, we are taking a unique approach to the development of next-generation ADCs, combining validated tumor biology with a differentiated ADC architecture. Our platform’s design features are intended to maximize tumor targeting while minimizing off-target toxicity, enabled by highly selective antibodies, a stabilizing bioconjugation strategy that includes carbon-bridge cysteine re-pairing, and controlled delivery of a potent TOP1 inhibitor payload. As our lead programs enter the clinic, our focus will be on efficient clinical execution to generate data that validates this approach with meaningful outcomes for patients.”
