NUV-1511 is the first clinical candidate from the company’s novel drug-drug conjugate platform
Company anticipates initiating a Phase 1/2 clinical study of NUV-1511 in 1H 2024
NEW YORK, NY, USA I January 08, 2024 I Nuvation Bio Inc. (NYSE: NUVB), a biopharmaceutical company tackling some of the greatest unmet needs in oncology by developing differentiated and novel therapeutic candidates, announced today that the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has cleared its investigational new drug (IND) application to evaluate NUV-1511, the first clinical candidate from the company’s novel drug-drug conjugate (DDC) platform.
“This IND clearance expands our clinical pipeline and validates the approach of our proprietary DDC platform to design potent oncology-focused chimeric small molecules which combine tumor-targeting specificity with the anti-cancer activity of known oncology agents,” said David Hung, M.D., Founder, President, and Chief Executive Officer of Nuvation Bio. “We believe NUV-1511 has the potential to provide favorable clinical benefit for patients with various solid tumors and we look forward to initiating the Phase 1/2 study.”
The dose escalation portion of the Phase 1/2 study will initially evaluate safety and tolerability, and explore the potential for clinical efficacy, in patients with advanced solid tumors who previously received and progressed on or after treatment with Enhertu® and/or Trodelvy® per approved FDA labeling, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-negative (HER2-) metastatic breast cancer, metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC), pancreatic cancer, and platinum-resistant ovarian cancer (PROC).
