Ph 1B Study of FX-909 initiated for Treatment of Metastatic Urothelial Cancer
“The initiation of the Phase 1B expansion study marks an important milestone as we seek to improve the treatment of advanced urothelial cancer with our lead program FX-909,” said Doug Manion, M.D., FRCP (C), Chief Executive Officer and Board Member. “We are prospectively screening for patients with high expression of PPARG, the hallmark of the luminal lineage, which accounts for approximately 65% of cases of advanced UC. We believe our PPARG inhibitor approach in this defined patient population represents a significant step toward addressing the disease at its source. By introducing a novel nuclear hormone receptor therapy—akin to the critical roles AR and ER play in prostate and breast cancers, respectively—we are expanding the therapeutic landscape to directly target the cell of origin and address the underlying disease biology.”

“Initiation of the TEADCO Phase 1b/2 basket trial is another important milestone for the ODM-212 clinical development program and reflects our commitment to patients with difficult-to-treat cancers,” said Professor Outi Vaarala, Executive Vice President, Research & Development at Orion. “Together with the ongoing TEADES study, TEADCO highlights the versatility of
“In this study, tovecimig showed an impressive overall response rate which translated into a clinically meaningful and highly statistically significant improvement in PFS for patients with previously treated BTC. The remarkable 56% reduction in the risk of disease progression is unprecedented in this patient population without an actionable mutation in
“We are encouraged to see taletrectinib (IBTROZI) added to the NCCN Guidelines® for CNS Cancers given its demonstrated high rates of intracranial response that are durable in ROS1+ NSCLC patients with brain metastases,” said David Hung, M.D., Founder, President and Chief Executive Officer of Nuvation Bio. “Given the prevalence of
