Nature publishes positive pancreatic cancer Ph 1b data for NP137 

Patrick Mehlen, PhD, Chief Executive Officer of NETRIS Pharma, said: “While this is only a Phase 1b trial, we are thrilled to observe the strong PFS and OS being achieved in the neogenin-high PDAC patients in LAPNET-01; we are eager to confirm these results in a larger study. This marks the third Nature publication outlining the compelling scientific and mechanistic rationale for our anti-netrin1 strategy. LAPNET-01 data strongly support the clinically meaningful potential of targeting the netrin-1 / EMT axis to overcome the development of treatment resistance by PDAC, especially in neogeninhigh patients. These exciting positive data will accelerate further development of NP137, the first-in-class anti-netrin1 monoclonal antibody. We are engaging with US and EU regulatory authorities as we design the development pathway for NP137 to treat PDAC and other solid tumors.”

Dr. Jason Zhu, Executive Director and Chief Executive Officer of Henlius, said: “The positive CHMP opinion for the sqNSCLC indication marks another important milestone in serplulimab’s regulatory journey in Europe and brings the product one step closer to achieving comprehensive coverage of first-line lung cancer treatment indications in the EU.

“Many solid tumors remain difficult to treat despite advances in immunotherapy,” said Rustam Esanov, CEO and co-founder of Reprogram Biosciences. “Our approach is differentiated by its reprogramming of the tumor itself into a site of immune activation, rather than relying on exogenous immune cells or broadly acting systemic agents.”

Mabwell, an innovation-driven biopharmaceutical company with a fully integrated industry chain, today announced that the first patient has been dosed in a Phase III clinical trial evaluating its novel Nectin-4-targeting ADC (Bulumtatug Fuvedotin, or BFv, R&D code: 9MW2821) for the treatment of locally advanced or metastatic triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC).
