"Using our DEL-AI platform, we identified novel DEL-derived chemical matter from which we developed, together with Sanofi, a potential best-in-class STAT6 degrader, NX-3911, which achieves rapid and complete STAT6 degradation," said Gwenn M. Hansen, Ph.D., chief scientific officer of Nurix. "NX-3911 is a potent, selective, orally administered degrader of STAT6 that shows robust efficacy in multiple preclinical models of atopic dermatitis and asthma, demonstrating anti-inflammatory efficacy in animal models equivalent to a STAT6 gene knockout."

"This is the second license extension of a Nurix autoimmune disease program by Sanofi in the last 90 days, highlighting the power of our proprietary DEL-AI drug discovery platform to fuel the discovery of novel medicines to a range of therapeutically important targets like STAT6," said Arthur T. Sands, M.D., Ph.D., president and chief executive officer of Nurix. "Notably, our STAT6 program also includes additional differentiated discovery-stage assets, which could represent an additional product opportunity within our Sanofi collaboration."

Under the 2019 collaboration agreement, Nurix is deploying its proprietary DEL-AI drug discovery platform to identify novel agents that use E3 ligases to induce degradation of specified drug targets. Sanofi has an option to license drug candidates resulting from the work, and Nurix retains its option to co-develop and co-promote up to two future products in the United States after studies to assess dosing, efficacy, and safety that provide clinical proof of concept. For those programs for which Nurix exercises its option to co-develop and co-promote, the parties will split U.S profits and losses evenly and Nurix will be eligible to receive royalties on ex-U.S. sales on all optioned products. For programs that Nurix does not exercise its option, Nurix will receive milestones and royalties based on global development and sales. Upon signing the agreement in December 2019, Sanofi made an upfront payment of $55 million and subsequently paid an additional $22 million one year later to expand the scope of the collaboration. To date, Nurix has received a total of $127 million from Sanofi as part of this collaboration and remains eligible for up to $465 million in development, regulatory, and commercial milestones per licensed program as well as royalties on future sales.

About STAT6

STAT6 is a key transcription factor within the IL-4/IL-13 signaling pathways which act as drivers of inflammation in allergic conditions. Degrading STAT6 as a therapeutic strategy is supported by insights from mouse and human genetic studies as well as through clinical validation with either biologics targeting IL4/13 or small molecule inhibitors targeting the Janus Kinase (JAK) family. JAK proteins, which are upstream of STAT6, mediate the signaling of multiple cytokines, and as a result, JAK inhibition is associated with safety concerns. A potent, selective, and orally administered STAT6 degrader offers the potential for antibody-like efficacy and safety, with the convenience of a pill.

On June 2, 2025 NuCana plc (NASDAQ: NCNA) reported financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2025 and provided an update on its clinical development program with its two lead anti-cancer medicines (Press release, Nucana, JUN 2, 2025, View Source [SID1234653616]).

"We have entered 2025 with a clear focus on the advancement of our pipeline through key milestones, into late-stage development, and towards commercialization," said Hugh S. Griffith, NuCana’s Founder and Chief Executive Officer. "Our lead program, NUC-7738, continues to show significant promise. NUC-7738 is a novel agent that profoundly impacts gene expression in cancer cells and targets multiple aspects of the tumor microenvironment. In our ongoing Phase 1/2 NuTide:701 study, we have observed a favorable safety profile, meaningful tumor volume reduction and prolonged progression free-survival in patients with PD-1 inhibitor refractory and resistant metastatic melanoma. Based on these compelling results, we have recently initiated an expansion trial of NUC-7738 in an additional 28 patients with PD-1 inhibitor-resistant melanoma, that supports our registrational path. Based on this, we plan to meet with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration to determine the optimal regulatory strategy forward towards commercialization."

Mr. Griffith continued, "Turning to our second program, NUC-3373 is a targeted thymidylate synthase inhibitor with immune modulating properties. We are encouraged by the data from the ongoing Phase 1b/2 NuTide:303 study. This study is evaluating NUC-3373 in combination with pembrolizumab in patients with advanced solid tumors, and NUC-3373 with docetaxel in patients with lung cancer. To date, we have seen notable tumor volume reductions and prolonged progression free survival in these patients. We look forward to sharing additional data from this trial later this year."

Mr. Griffith concluded, "Lastly, we strengthened our balance sheet with a financing in May, extending our cash runway through key value-driving milestones. With multiple data readouts ahead, we are well-positioned to deliver on our mission of improving treatment outcomes for patients with cancer."

The presentation will focus on Emi-Le’s Phase 1 dose escalation and backfill cohorts as of a March 8, 2025 data cut-off in patients with triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC); hormone-receptor-positive, human epidermal growth factor receptor 2-negative breast cancer; ovarian cancer; endometrial cancer and adenoid cystic carcinoma type 1 (ACC-1).

"We are excited to share additional interim data in an oral presentation at ASCO (Free ASCO Whitepaper)," said Martin Huber, M.D., President and Chief Executive Officer of Mersana Therapeutics. "The results from our dose escalation and backfill cohorts led us to focus our initial expansion work on patients with TNBC who have previously been treated with a topoisomerase-1 inhibitor ADC, a population with high unmet need that we believe Emi-Le may be uniquely suited to address within the B7-H4 ADC field. We also continue to be encouraged by the activity observed in other B7-H4-expressing tumor types, demonstrating Emi-Le’s broader development potential. On behalf of the Mersana team, we would like to express our gratitude to the patients and investigators who have participated in this clinical trial."

Safety and tolerability as of the March 8, 2025 data cut-off were consistent with initial data previously reported in January 2025, and no new safety signals were observed. Additionally, the following clinical activity data are being presented from evaluable patients (those with measurable disease at baseline and at least one post-baseline scan):

· 31% confirmed objective response rate (ORR) (8/26) across all enrolled tumor types with B7-H4 high tumor expression (defined as a tumor proportion score of 70% or higher) receiving intermediate Emi-Le doses (38.1 milligrams per meter squared (mg/m2) to 67.4 mg/m2 per cycle).

o 44% confirmed ORR (7/16) in the subset of patients with ≤4 prior lines of therapy.

· 56% ORR (5/9, including one unconfirmed response as of the March 8, 2025 data cut-off that was subsequently confirmed) in ACC-1 regardless of dose and B7-H4 expression. Among all ACC-1 patients who were enrolled in the Phase 1 clinical trial, the median progression free survival (PFS) had not yet been reached as of the March 8, 2025 data cut-off. ACC-1 is a rare and aggressive cancer that most frequently originates in the salivary glands. With no approved therapies, median PFS and median overall survival for patients with ACC-1 are reported to be 2-3 months and 2-3 years, respectively.

"The clinical activity observed for emiltatug ledadotin across all enrolled tumor types is encouraging, and its safety and tolerability profile appears differentiated from many other ADCs," said Antonio Giordano, MD, Ph.D., Assistant Professor of Medicine, Harvard Medical School, Dana-Farber Cancer Institute. "The objective responses were particularly notable in patients with late-stage triple-negative breast cancer who were previously treated with topoisomerase-1 inhibitors and in patients with ACC-1, both of which are aggressive and difficult-to-treat cancers with high unmet need."

"We are delighted to announce positive pivotal data from the KOMET-001 trial in R/R NPM1-mutated AML patients treated with ziftomenib," said Troy Wilson, Ph.D., J.D., President and Chief Executive Officer of Kura Oncology. "NPM1 mutations are among the most common in AML, representing approximately 30% of cases, and there are no FDA-approved therapies specifically for this patient population. With these encouraging results and a PDUFA target action date of November 30, 2025, we and our partners at Kyowa Kirin look forward to supporting FDA with its review of the ziftomenib New Drug Application (NDA) and are well-positioned to meaningfully impact relapsed or refractory patients with NPM1 mutations."

"Relapsed or refractory NPM1-mutated AML is a highly challenging disease with a poor prognosis and an urgent need for new treatments," said Eunice Wang, M.D., Chief of Leukemia Service, Professor of Oncology, Roswell Park Comprehensive Cancer Center, Buffalo, NY. "The promising results for ziftomenib in this heavily pretreated population are highly encouraging. Notably, the clinically meaningful minimal residual disease (MRD)-negative responses observed as well as the similar response rates seen regardless of prior therapies, including hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT) and venetoclax, hold great promise for the potential use of ziftomenib in patients with relapsed and refractory NPM1-mutated AML."

The KOMET-001 Phase 2 population included 92 adult patients with R/R NPM1-m AML. The median age was 69 (range: 33 to 84). Patients were heavily pretreated, with 33% having received three or more prior lines of therapy (median prior lines: 2) and 59% having been previously treated with venetoclax.

A complete remission (CR) plus CR with partial hematological recovery (CRh) rate of 23% (21/92) was observed among patients with R/R NPM1-m AML in the Phase 2 portion of the KOMET-001 trial. Among those 21 patients who achieved CR/CRh, 13 had a CR and 8 had a CRh. The median duration of CR/CRh responses was 3.7 months (95% CI: 1.9, not estimable (NE)) and the restricted mean duration of response was 4.3 months (95% CI: 3.1, 5.6) at the time of the data cutoff. MRD status was assessed in 19 of 21 patients who achieved CR/CRh, and 63% (12/19) of these patients were MRD-negative.

Comparable CR/CRh rates were observed across pre-specified subgroups, regardless of prior HSCT, prior venetoclax or FLT3/IDH co-mutations. Additional patient benefit beyond CR/CRh was observed with a rate of transfusion conversion of 21% (17/82; 95% CI: 13-31) and a rate of maintenance of transfusion independence of 20% (2/10; 95% CI: 3-56). A median OS of 16.4 months (95% CI, 9.6–20.4) was observed for responders (patients who achieved CR, CRh, CRi/CRp, MLFS or PR) and a median overall survival (OS) of 3.5 months (95% CI, 2.5–4.0) was observed among non-responders.

The safety population included 112 adult patients with R/R NPM1-m AML from the pooled Phase 1b and Phase 2 portions of the KOMET-001 trial. The safety profile observed with ziftomenib in this population was consistent with previously reported data. Treatment-related adverse events (TRAEs) led to treatment discontinuations in 3% of patients. TRAEs of Grade ≥3 which occurred in more than 10% of patients were limited to differentiation syndrome (DS, 13%), which was well managed by protocol-specified mitigation strategies and no Grade 4/5 treatment-related DS was observed. Although QTc prolongation (1 Gr2; 2 Gr3) was reported in three patients per investigator assessment, all three patients were on concomitant medications associated with QTc prolongation, two had electrolyte abnormalities and one had a prior diagnosis of atrial fibrillation.

"Beyond ziftomenib’s clinical activity, we are highly encouraged by its consistent safety and tolerability profile," said Mollie Leoni, MD, Chief Medical Officer of Kura Oncology. "Notably, the low rate of myelosuppression, low discontinuation rate, lack of clinically significant QTc prolongation, absence of drug-drug interactions, and effective management of differentiation syndrome underscore ziftomenib’s potentially favorable benefit-risk profile for patients with relapsed or refractory NPM1-mutated AML."

"The data presented at ASCO (Free ASCO Whitepaper) strengthen our conviction that ziftomenib has potential to become a meaningful treatment option for patients with relapsed or refractory AML with NPM1 mutations — patients who often face limited treatment options and significant uncertainty regarding their prognosis," said Takeyoshi Yamashita, Ph.D., Executive Vice President and Chief Medical Officer of Kyowa Kirin. "Encouraged by the favorable safety, tolerability, and promising clinical activity observed thus far, Kyowa Kirin, in collaboration with Kura, is working with urgency and purpose to bring ziftomenib monotherapy to patients as swiftly and responsibly as possible."

Virtual Investor Event

Kura will host a virtual investor event featuring company management and investigators from the KOMET-001 trial of ziftomenib in R/R NPM1-m AML at 7:30pm ET / 4:30pm PT on Monday, June 2, 2025. Those who would like to participate may access the live webcast here, or register in advance for the teleconference here.The event can also be accessed on the Investors section of Kura’s website at www.kuraoncology.com. An archived replay will be available shortly after the conclusion of the live event.

On June 2, 2025 Iovance Biotherapeutics, Inc. (NASDAQ: IOVA), a commercial biotechnology company focused on innovating, developing, and delivering novel polyclonal tumor infiltrating lymphocyte (TIL) therapies for patients with cancer, reported that the Journal of Clinical Oncology has published the final analysis from the Phase 2 C-144-01 clinical trial evaluating the individualized T cell therapy Amtagvi (lifileucel) in patients with advanced melanoma (Press release, Iovance Biotherapeutics, JUN 2, 2025, View Source [SID1234653613]). These five-year follow-up results are being simultaneously presented during an oral session today at the 2025 American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) (Free ASCO Whitepaper) Annual Meeting.

This five-year analysis of the C-144-01 trial represents unprecedented durability and duration of follow-up in advanced melanoma patients previously treated with anti-PD-1 and targeted therapy, where applicable. The analysis includes 153 patients from cohorts 2 and 4 of the C-144-01 trial.

One-time Amtagvi treatment demonstrated long-term benefit in heavily pretreated patients, including deep and durable responses, meaningful overall survival without further treatment, and no new or late-onset adverse events at a median follow-up of 57.8 months. The objective response rate was 31.4% with a median time to response of 1.4 months and a median duration of response of 36.5 months. Nearly one third of responders (31.3%) completed the five-year assessment with ongoing responses. The median overall survival (mOS) was 13.9 months with a five-year survival rate of 19.7%. Survival outcomes were consistent among responders, regardless of time of onset of response to Amtagvi therapy.

The observed safety profile was consistent with that of nonmyeloablative lymphodepletion and interleukin-2 administration. The incidence of AEs decreased rapidly within the first two weeks after Amtagvi infusion, and there were no new or late-onset treatment-related AEs.

Theresa Medina, M.D., medical oncologist at the University of Colorado Cancer Center on the Anschutz Medical Campus, stated, "Amtagvi has demonstrated long-term benefit and meaningful overall survival in a difficult-to-treat melanoma patient population resistant to immune checkpoint inhibitor therapy. Five years following one-time Amtagvi treatment, responses persisted or deepened during an extended treatment-free interval for some patients. Amtagvi offers a new standard of care for the advanced melanoma community and sets a new bar for one-time cell therapies with curative intent in solid tumors."

In February 2024, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration granted accelerated approval to Amtagvi for the treatment of adult patients with unresectable or metastatic melanoma previously treated with a PD-1 blocking antibody, and if BRAF V600 mutation positive, a BRAF inhibitor with or without a MEK inhibitor. The approval was based on overall response rate and duration of response from the C-144-01 clinical trial. With this approval, Amtagvi became the first one-time T cell therapy for a solid tumor cancer as well as the first approved treatment option for patients with advanced melanoma after anti-PD-1 and targeted therapy. Iovance is also conducting TILVANCE-301, a Phase 3 trial in frontline advanced melanoma to confirm clinical benefit.

About the C-144-01 Clinical Trial

C-144-01 is a global, multicenter Phase 2 study in which patients received treatment with lifileucel. The study enrolled patients with metastatic melanoma who were previously treated with at least one systemic therapy, including a PD-1 blocking antibody, and if BRAF V600 mutation positive, a BRAF inhibitor or BRAF inhibitor with MEK inhibitor. Efficacy was established on the basis of objective response rate (ORR) and duration of response (DOR) by Independent Review Committee (IRC) per Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST) version 1.1. The pivotal Cohort 4 and supportive Cohort 2 of Study C-144-01 enrolled patients that met the same primary eligibility criteria, had the same assessments, and had received the same regimen and AMTAGVI that was produced using the same manufacturing process, and product formulation. The final five-year analysis of C-144-01 was published in the Journal of Clinical Oncology in 2025.

About Amtagvi

AMTAGVI is a prescription medicine used to treat adults with a type of skin cancer that cannot be removed surgically or has spread to other parts of the body called unresectable or metastatic melanoma.

AMTAGVI is used when your melanoma has not responded or stopped responding to a PD-1 blocking drug either by itself or in a combination, and if your cancer is BRAF mutation positive, a BRAF inhibitor drug with or without a MEK inhibitor drug that has also stopped working.

The approval of AMTAGVI is based on a study that measured response rate. Continued approval for this use may depend on the results of an ongoing study to confirm benefit.

Important Safety Information

What is the most important information that I should know about AMTAGVI?

You will likely be in a hospital prior to and after receiving AMTAGVI.

Before taking AMTAGVI, tell your healthcare provider about all of your medical conditions, including if you:

Have any lung, heart, liver or kidney problems
Have low blood pressure
Have a recent or active infection or other inflammatory conditions including cytomegalovirus (CMV) infection, hepatitis B or C or human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infection
Are pregnant, think you may be pregnant, or plan to become pregnant
Are breastfeeding
Notice the symptoms of your cancer are getting worse
Have had a vaccination in the past 28 days or plan to have one in the next few months
Have been taking a blood thinner
Tell your doctor about all the medications you take, including prescription and over-the-counter medicines, vitamins, and herbal supplements.

How will I receive AMTAGVI?

AMTAGVI is made from your surgically removed tumor. Tumor derived T cells are grown in a manufacturing center at the end of which they number in the billions of cells.
Your tumor tissue is sent to a manufacturing center to make AMTAGVI. It takes about 34 days from the time your tumor tissue is received at the manufacturing center until AMTAGVI is available to be shipped back to your healthcare provider, but the time may vary. Your AMTAGVI will be provided in 1-4 patient-specific infusion bag(s) containing 100 mL to 125 mL of viable (alive) cells per bag.
After your AMTAGVI arrives at your treating institution, your healthcare provider will give you lymphodepleting chemotherapy to prepare your body.
Approximately 30 to 60 minutes before you are given AMTAGVI, you may be given other medicines including:
Medicines for an allergic reaction (anti-histamines)
Medicines for fever (such as acetaminophen)
Your AMTAGVI will be provided in 1 to 4 infusion bag(s) containing 100 mL to 125 mL of viable cells per bag. When your body is ready for AMTAGVI infusion, your healthcare provider will give AMTAGVI to you by intravenous infusion. This usually takes less than 90 minutes.
After getting AMTAGVI

Beginning 3 to 24 hours after AMTAGVI is given, you may be given up to 6 doses of IL-2 (aldesleukin) every 8 to 12 hours via intravenous infusion. Your doctor may discontinue IL-2 (aldesleukin) infusion any time if you have severe side effects.

You will have to stay in the hospital until you have completed the IL-2 (aldesleukin) treatment and you have recovered from any serious side effects associated with the AMTAGVI treatment.

You should plan to stay within 2 hours of the location where you received your treatment for several weeks after getting AMTAGVI. Your healthcare provider will check to see if your treatment is working and help you with any side effects that occur.

What are the possible side effects of AMTAGVI?

The most common side effects of the AMTAGVI treatment include chills, fever, low white blood cell count (may increase risk of infections), fatigue, low red blood cell count (may cause you to feel tired or weak), fast or irregular heartbeat, rash, low blood pressure, and diarrhea.

These are not all the possible side effects of the AMTAGVI treatment. Talk with your healthcare provider for more information about AMTAGVI. You can ask your healthcare provider for information about AMTAGVI that is written for healthcare professionals.

You may report side effects to Iovance at 1-833-400-4682, or to the FDA, at 1-800-FDA-1088 or at www.fda.gov/medwatch.
