Orphan Drug Designation Granted by the FDA to NXP800 for the Treatment of Cholangiocarcinoma
Ron Bentsur, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Nuvectis, commented, “We are pleased to have received this designation from the FDA for NXP800, which emphasizes the need for new, innovative therapies for the treatment of cholangiocarcinoma, a deadly malignancy with only limited treatment options available. NXP800 is an oral small molecule with a novel mechanism of action that has demonstrated robust activity in several preclinical cancer models, including ARID1a-mutated ovarian, endometrial and gastric carcinomas, as well as cholangiocarcinoma. The clinical activity of NXP800 is currently being evaluated in a Phase 1b clinical trial in patients with platinum resistant, ARID1a-mutated ovarian carcinoma, with additional diseases planned for clinical investigations. This orphan drug designation is an important milestone in our journey toward our mission of developing NXP800 for the treatment of serious conditions of unmet medical need in oncology.”
